Why allow the Commissioner of Agriculture to send to Europe to get the seeds grown by the pauper labor of Europe when there is an abundance of American seeds just as good and a great deal better than the paupergrown seeds of the Old World? Why not confine the bill in every particular. where articles are to be purchased. to purchasing in the home market and nowhere else? Do we desire any improvement in this country?
