The second jdace where the grower falls down is on proper land and pro])er ]ire|)aration. Kven when the rij^ht kind of stock seed is used, the labor of the seed yrower has only bej;un. I'lider this head 1 am {joing to iiudude xohmteer crops. Volunteer cro|)s ha\'e workecl ^reat havoc in the milder (dimates, and es])ecially now] examples of this are the sweet pea and yarden ]iea fiidds of ("ali- fornia, where some had mixtures have resulted from followiii}; one variety after another on tlie same field. Tlie ? raising of see(l on disease-affected soil of such crops as onion, cahhayc and sweet corn, jjatliologists 1(dl us, is en- tirely wrong. Third, the necessity of proper is(dat- iiifj from wind and insect pollinating is seemingly <d)vious, hut we seedsmen are always learning. .Not a year goes by h\it we have luinierous examples of su<di mixture. The small ])ercentage of niix- tuic of wild radish and off c(dors in California-grown radish is always a re- minder, as is, too, the spotted grains nearly always found in sweet inion as to safe dis- t;in<-es lead the grower to take (dianees many times, with regret later.
