SEED-TESTING.
NO STATION FOR SOUTH ISLAND. (Per Press Association.) HASTINGS, This Day. Little hope of a seed-testing station being erected in the South Island was held out to the delegates who are attending the Conference of the New Zealand Seed, Grain and Produce Federation, held here yesterday. Mr Nelson Foy, of the plant research station at Palmerston North, intimated that if the present station were removed from Palmerston North it would certainly go to • Wellington. Seed stations were very expensive to equip and maintain, and it was considered that the present institution was now sufficiently well staffed and equipped to deal with present requirements.
