for the first time in many years the 1931 crop assures a suostantia surplus of domestic red clover seed the annual consumption ot this seed in canada is about three million pounds while the 1931 pro duction will be between four and five million usually red clover has been relatively high in price but owing to the heavy production this year and the weakness of export markets there appear good prospects for cheaper red clover seed next spring and with cheaper seed it might be expected that consumption will be so stimulated as to make use of all the 1931 crop red clover is perhaps the most generally grown legume crop in canada and provides cheap protein feed for live stock in addition to being a cheap source of nitrogen for soil enrichment card of thanks the family of the late mr john
