GROWERS HOLD CLOVER SEED FOR HIGHER PRICES.

---

Quality of 1921 Crop About Same as That of last Year—Alsike Clover Seed Movement Normal.

---

The movement of red clover seed from growers’ hands has been below normal, but that of alsike clover has been fully normal, according to reports received by the Bureau of Markets and Crop Estimates during the week ending Oct. 1. There is a tendency on the part of the growers of red clover seed to hold their seed because the crop, which is now being thrashed in many sections, is not turning out any better than was expected at harvest time and as reported in The Market Reporter for Sept. 10.
