NEBRASKA TO SELL
BEAN SEED AT COST
College of Agriculture Has Two
Carloads it Will Distribute
to Growers, -
"EMERGENCY" WAR CROP
' Lincoln, April 28. (Specials
Owing to the present scarcity of bean
seed, the extension service of the
College of Agriculture has secured
two carloads of aeed for sale at coat
to all who wish to buy. Beans are in
great demand for seed because many
persons are planning to grow them aa
an emergency "war crop and because
they are a good crop to replace winter-killer
wheat.
So long as the supply lasts, the ex
tension service will book ordera for
bean seed. The price will not exceed
22 cents a pound for navy beana and
18 cents a pound for pinto beana. The
price for navy beans is f. o. b. Lin
coln and for pinto beans f. o. b. Sid
ned, or some point not farther west
than Denver. The navy beans are
from Michigan and the pinto beans
irom Colorado.
Win Sell Seed at Cost.
A statement just issued by Prof. C.
W. Pugjlfy, director of the extension
service, follows:
"We are having many inquiries for
navy and pinto bean seed. Pinto
beans are especially adapted to cen
tral and western Nebraska. We have
made an effort to locate bean seed in
quantities and have succeeded in locat
ing limited amount. The seed is
scarce and it will be necessary to
book the orders at once in case we
are to take advantage of the prices
quoted. When the beans are laid down
it may be found possible to scale the
price a few cents a pound. The seed
is being located by the College of
Agriculture (Nebraska) for sale to
farmers at cost.
Cash With Orden.
"It is necessary that cash accom
pany the orders, and in case the or
ders cannot be filled,, the cash will be
returned and the party notified at
once. I would auggest that the beana
be ordered in quantities, a number of
farmers clubbing together. This will
reduce shipping charges and will also
reduce expense in handling the means.
"Orders may be sent to the exten
sion service, College of Agriculture,
Lincoln. Ho definite date for delivery
can be given, but within a few daya
we hope to be notified of the approxi
mate date of delivery. Bean aeed ia
advancing rapidly in price, and our
orders for two cars could only be
placed aubject to the ability of parties
to locate beans." -
A new circular on "Bean Culture,"
emergency bulletin No. 4, has just
been issued by the extension service.
It will be sent free upon request ,
