A new production of red clover being multiplied for distri- bution. University of Alberta. this association, the following fundamental principles have been observed :— 1. That organized effort with tJie growers is essen- tial. 2. That an association with recognized rules and regulations exercises a splendid effect in securing a high standard of work. 3.

That small tests by growers or members of the association are essential as a means of confirming one's opinion of a given strain. 7. To become an effective* iigency in the production of pure seed, seed must l)e supjtlied to tlie grower in sufficient quantity to enable the individual to multiply it into saleable quantities in a minimum of time. This makes it possible for the grower to take .steps to equip himself with clean land, suitalde implements, etc., Iiy wliich lie can make an enterju'ise out of seed multi- plication and distribution. 8.
