A meeting that promises to have a far-reaching efiect on the production of farm crops in Canada was held in Ottawagon the 15th and 16th of June. This was the organization meeting of I the Canadian Seed Grower’s Asso- I ciation. the chief aim of which is to encourage the production and gener al use of seed of superior quality for farm crops. Experience has shown that in all kinds of farm crops the yield per acre may be materially in- creased and the quality substantially improved by the use of seed which ‘has been graded upvby careful grow~ ing and systematic, intelligent se- lection. continued from year to year. Vigour of growth and productiveness in individual plants are transmitted through their seeds to the succeeding crops quite as surely as any desirable characteristics are transmitted to .animals from their ancestors. Pedigreed seed. With the above fact in view the newly-formed asso- ciation, which will immediatelv apply for Dominion incorporation, arauuu! a constitution to regulate the grow-1 ing, selecting and improving of farm seeds by its members, and providing for keeping records of the history of seeds, fixing standards, and isuing certificates of registration for hand- selected seed. For the present the operations of the association will be confined to Wheat, oats, barley, peas, maize, beans, flax millet and potatoes. Each operating member will be re- quired to conduct annually a hand- selected seed plot of not less than The Benefits Of Seed Selection.

Donald-Robertson Seed Growers’ As- sociation, which is superseded by the new organization. was an outgrowth of a competition for prizes aggregat- ing $10,000 that were given by Sir Wm. McDonald to school boys and' 7 girls operating seed plots and select- ing the best heads of wheat and oats during the years 1900, 1901 and 1902. This competition was conducted un- der the supervision of Prof. Robert- ‘1 son hence the name of the original l l I l 3 crease was 18 per cent in the number ';oi grains in the hundred selected iheads of spring wheat, and 28 per icent in the weight of grains in the .100 heads.
