Business men and oth-rs who hear of men looking for farm work are requested to send me word. Each town, through its commercial club or other agency should plan some drag-net method of keeping tab on the unemployed, and of informing me of any surplus, not needed Jocally, at frequent intervals. Let's take hold of this big problem immediately, so that the clearing house machinery may be working smoothly before the rush times of planting, haying, and harvest upon us. Suggestions are in order. The Alma Commercial Club is evolving some definite plans for enlisting ing the services of town men for farm work in the throng seasons.

Who's next? Last week I told you that the Government is buying sorghum seed for the purpose of controlling prices against profiteering. Another letter states that the following prices are being paid for bulk seed just as it came from the thresher. Cane, all varieties $7.25 to $8.00 per ewt, or $3.60 to $4.00 a bushel. Must have a germination test of 80 per cent or better. Pink kafir, $4.10 to $4.50 per ewt, or $2.30 to $2.50 a bushel.

Germination of 85 per cent or better. Blackhulled kafir, if especially fine, $4.00 to $4.25 per ewt, or $2.25 to $2.40 a bushel. Germination of 85 per cent or better. F. teriva, $4.25 to $5.00 per ewt, or $2.40 to a bushel.

Germination of 85 per cent or better. Sudan grass 15 to 17 cents a pourd. Germination 75 percent or better. These figures I give mainly to help answer the question in your minds as to how seed prices are going to range this spring. However, if any neighborhood has a large quantity of any of the above seed that is not needed locally they should let me know.

Any farmer wishing to try out the New Dry Method treating seed oats for smut, phone write me at once.
