The average price of rape seed for planting purposes, both retail and wholesale, is the same as a year ago. In th'e aggregate the spread between wholesale and retail prices of seeds this season appears to be less than in 1921. For example, the average retail price of red clover March 1 was only about four per cent higher than the average wholesale selling price, while on or about the same date last year it was fifteen per cent higher. Sweet clover was thirty-five per cent higher in 1922 and forty-five per cent higher in 1921, alfalfa ten per cent higher in 1922 and twenty-five per cent in 1921, and timo- thy twenty per cent higher in 1922 and thirty-five per cent in 1921.
