FHA said this is aimed at inspiring lenders to look more closely at home improvement loans, including both the borrower's credit and the repu tation of the dealer contracting for the work. (2) Lenders applying for FHA in surance of their home improvement loans must investigate the "reliabili ty, financial responsibility and qualification to perform the work and extend service- to the custom er" of the dealer who contracts to carry out the job. The -lender will be the judge of the dealer's quali fications and he must put his writ ten approval of the dealer in his iles. . , (3) Repair and modernization loans will be eligible for FHA in- Moive7 frriflofoti Sysfems . - ' .if : :.

Certified Seed Boosted North Carolina farmers are being exposed to approximately 2,000 ed ucational posters designed to ac quaint them with the merits of cer tified seed,; The posters' were dis tributed by the N. C. Crop Im provement Association, which cer tifies seed as to quality, purity, and germination. John Rice, executive director of the association, explains that as new varieties or crops are produced by plant breeders at the North Caro lina Experiment Station, small quan tities of seed of these crops are transferred to the N. C. Foundation Seed Producers, Inc. This farmer organization is responsible for mak ing seed Increase of these new varieties. Such "increase-fields" are usual ly on farms of members of the as sociation; all are under direct con trol of R. W. McMillan, manager of the Foundation Eeed Producers. At harvest, these increase-fields of breeder seed are classed as "white tag" foundation seed. During the growing season, these fields are closely inspected by of ficial crop certifying agency in North Carolina, the Crop Improve ment Association. Purple Tag Certain seed growers that want to produce registered seed, which bear a purple tag, apply for the produc tion of such a class during field in spection periods. This registered type of seed is an intermediate class between foundation and certified seed. Such seed must pass field and laboratory inspections. The largest quantity of the three classes of seed is the certified seed, designated by a Blue Tag. It is un lawful for any seed to be labeled with a blue tag unless it has been approved by the certifying agency. "Farmers recognize this blue tag as a symbol of quality,", according to Rice. It represents the true seed variety, identified on the tag. Puri ty a,nd germination must be above the minimum standards to be eli gible for certification. Certified seed bags carry the printed emblem of the N. C. Crop Improvement Association and the bags are sealed with the official seal of the association. These trade marks are the buyers assurance of high quality seed that have met the rigid standards of certified seed, Rice says. , The educational posters, explain ing different classifications, are be ing distributed to each county agent, vocational agriculture teacher and other agricultural workers. Every retail seed dealer that sells field crop seeds will also receive a pos ter. The Crop Improvement Associa tion and Foundation Seed Produc ers have officies at N. C. State College.
