Golesburp Register-Moil, Galesburg, HI. Legume and Grass Seed Crops Lower, See Higher Prices Legume and grass seed supplies will be adequate for 1959, although 1958 production was smaller lor most seed crops, W. O. University of Illinois agronomist reported this week. Prices of most seeds will be higher.

Government estimates show a slightly larger red clover geofl crop, but growers are still holding much of this seed on farms. Prices for next year arc still uncertain, but Scott expects them to be slightly Total alfalfa seed production dropped 9 per cent in 1953. However, hardy common variety supplies are about the same as they were last year. Improved variety supplies are lower. Ranger stocks are much below last year, and prices will be up.

Production of Vernal was higher, but the demand for it will be strong. Buffalo and Atlantic supplies are a little lower, but they are good buys, Scott reports. DuPuils also will be available, but prices will bo about, the same as those of last year. Ladlno to Coat More Ladino seed will cost "more in 1959. The supplies of surplus seed have been used up, but this crop is" worth seeding, Scott points out.

He urges all farmers who buy to make sure they get certified seed. Farmers who want to plant birdsfoot trefoil will find that supplies are up and prices have dropped about 50 per cent from last year. For pasture, Scott' recommends Empire and New York strains. Among the grass seeds, the timothy seed crop suffered the greatest production cut, being about 23 per cent below last year. Old seed carryover is also down, so total supply is about 16 per cent less.

Prices are up sharply, and farmers may want to consider substituting another grass soed for timothy. Not Much Difference Supplies of tall fescue, redtop and orchard grass are not greatly different from last year, and prices will be only a little higher. The bromegrass seed crop was only 30 per cent as large as last year, but a large carryover makes the total supply only 9 per cent lower. Farmers will fore have to pay only a little more in the year ahead. Lespedeza supplies are up 15 per cent.

Sweet clover supplies are down sharply, but fewer farmers are using this crop now. Canadian imports will help to fill the gap. Scott emphasizes that fortunately legume and grass seeds can be carried over from year to year. So, even though 1958 production of most legume and grass seed was lower, the carryover makes up the shortages and farmers will be able to buy enough seed for their 1959 plantings. I I.
