The Modern Seed Catalog The seed catalog still functions ;«• a stock joke for cartoonists and columnists, though it has been years since the catalogs stopped promising the miracles of whicn the humorists make fun. Watermelons large enough to . fill a hay wagoji. and vines whose , growth rivals the fabled beanstalk 'of the fairy story are no longer pictured as possible to the pur- ' chaser of a favored brand of seeds. The modern catalog is as I precise in its descriptions as the , American Poultry Standard, for : example, in its specifications for j pure-bred poultry. The seed catalog is indeed, a standard of breeding. and its illustrations as well as its descriptions record what its publisher has to offer in pure bred standard and improved varieties of vegetables and flowers. Catalog descriptions are prepared primarily for commercial growers, by whom seedsmen are held strictly to account for the performance of their strains. In size, color and length of season, the crop produced must be uniform and up to specifications, or business wil! be lost. Garden seed production under these exacting requirements iias come to be highly scientific, and the catalog reflects the scienific standard. Each variety offered is grown for distink# merits, which are duly set forth in descriptions upon which one may rely. The seed catalog is therefore a current encyclopedia of gardening revised each year and brought up-to-date. Some of them are so complete as to be the preferred reference books in agricultuial schools. The first step for anyone planning a garden, then, is to send for a seed catalog of the current year. Most of the questions in a gardener's mind will be answered in a good catalog. Books on gardening obtainable at any public library will give much information in a more complete fashion, and will help one to interpret and apply the data presented by the seed catalog. But a catalog is needed not only to plan the garden bt to refer to throughout the garden year. Send for one. and keep it by you, if you wish for gardening success. —— tIjOUNTVAGENT’S I COLUMN — — • Signers ot the 1835 Corn-Hog contract of the agricultural adjustment administration will be permitted to buy unlimited numbers of feeder pigs, without restriction as to the source, according to word received at the state corn-hog headquarters here early today from Washington. “This new ruling.” said L. E. Hoffman, who is in charge of the educational phases of the AAA ‘ campaigns in Indiana, “will per-

mit contract signers to buy any ' number of feeder pigs from any . market they wish. It cancels the J' ruling which stated that unlimited 1 numbers of feeder pigs could be r purchased only from eigners of the 1935 corn-hog contraot and that such pigs bought from nonsigners would be limited to the number determined by the producers feeder pig base, estubllshf ( ed in 1934 from his average purchases during 1932-33. Evidence for ail purchases and sales, howj ever, must be tiecured. ’’Many producers, who otherwise would probably not sign the cornhog reduction contract, are now t expected to enter into the agreement with the secretary of agriculture to control the production of corn and hogs because of the leeway permitted under the new ruling," he added. "However, tills ' ruling is not expected to mater--1 tally increase the numbers of hogs 1 produced for market because the ' contract provides control for the number of hogs actually produced ’ and raised on the farms of contract signers, while the feeder ’ pigs purchased are not produced ■ on the farms but are only fatten- ’ ed for market by the purchjwer.” i q Virginia Bootleggers Are Facing Extinction !
