They said they got this years seeds in yesterday. So I went today to get some seeds to grow for transplants.
Got there (Southern States) and they didn't have any Tomato seeds. They asked what I was looking for? I told them I was wanting sandwich tomato seeds for this year like Big Boy, Better Girl, Beefstake or Beefmaster. They said "We haven't gotton tomato seeds in yet, but I'll look them up for you".
He gets on the 'puter and looks them up. He turns to me and says "Those seeds are 69.99 per 1/4 ounce". I tell him that I had been coming here for years and buying those seeds for around $2.79 per 1/4 ounce packet. H just shook his head and said they are now close to $70 per packet.
About this time, the owner walks by and says "What's going on?". I tell him about the $70 for a 1/4 ounce of tomato seed. Owner says "That can't be right. I bet that's foe a 1/4 pound of seeds".
He, thens gets on the 'puter and says "Wow!, A quarter pond of these seeds is over $999.00!. I guess he was right, a quarter ounce of these seeds ia $69.99".
I told them that I'll just eat Rutgers on my sandwiches 'cause I got pouches of that seed at home. I just shook my head and walked out the door.
Got home and looked up Better Boy tomato seeds on the 'net and can get 300 seeds for $5.69.

Today's Featured Article - An Old-Time Tractor Demonstration - by Kim Pratt. Sam was born in rural Kansas in 1926. His dad was a hard-working farmer and the children worked hard everyday to help ends meet. In the rural area he grew up in, the highlight of the week was Saturday when many people took a break from their work to go to town. It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer.
