branch Experimental Farm at Indian
Head in the North-west Territories. The
distribution this spring. will consist of
samples of oats, spring wheat, barley,
Indian corn and potatoes. The quantity
of oats to be sent this year willhe 41bs.,
a nd of wheat or barley 5 lbs., sufficient
in each case to sow one -twentieth of an
acre. The samples of Indian corn and
potatoes will weigh 3 lbs.. as heretofore.
A quantity of each of the following
varieties has been secured for this dis-
tribution:—
Oats.—Banner, Wide -Awake, Improv-

be sent free of charge through the mail
Applications should be addressed t
the Director of Experimental Farms

tive, and should the available stock o
both varieties be exhausted, some othe
