Representative Jrfferis will introduce in the house tomor row a pill providing tnat seeds shipped into any slate from outside shall be subject to the operation of pure seed laws prevailing within that state. The legislation would impose on any dealer violating v its terms a fine of $500, the same to be recov ered at the suit of the I'nited States in any federal court having juris diction. The Omaha representative prepared the measure following cor tespondenre with II. D. Lute, sec retary of the Nebraska 1 arm Uureau federation. "The purpo!e of the bill, sayV Mr. Jcflcrw, "is to insure to the farmers and producers of Nebraska and other states seed which wilt pass the test. It seems only right that seed houses outside our state be made to comply with the same requirements as are the seed com panies doing business in Nebraska. We have a seed test law and a state bureau of inspection, but . exiting laws do not seem to make it possible for state authorities to prevent ship ments of inferior seed from seed houses in other states, who carry, on rateittitt advertising canipa'gna and si ii.
