growers are urged This spring to endeavour to cure and transplant a few roots to produce seed for them selves and their neighbours Ow ing to the abnormal conditions now prevailing there will likely bo very little swede seed for planting in the spring of unless our Canadian swede turnip growers make provision for their own supplies by growing the seed themselves Canadian supplies of swede and most other Held root and garden seeds formerly came from Europe but this source is now practically cut off The prospects for homegrown seed have been reduced by the present price of swede turnips for food purposes as it would now lake nearly two hundred dollars worth of fullgrown swede tur nips to transplant an acre for seed purposes This factor has had the unfortunate effect of re ducing the area In the eastern provinces thai would otherwise have been planted for the produc tion of swede seeds OOo- 6iUayfldfbnife Miss Augusta Marsh Is visiting at Mr Frank Mrs West and daughter Newmarket visited
