SEED TRADE NOTES. 



Boston and New York scrdsmcii gener- 

 ally report both mail and counter trade 

 as being quite satisfactory, notwith- 

 standing the season is somewhat back- 

 ward, and tliey look for this year to be a 

 record-breaker in the seed business. 



Tirst-class Pearl tuberoses are prac- 

 tically cleaned up in the eastern mar- 

 kets, and second size bulbs, which are of 

 fair quality, are now bringing good 

 prices. Growers of this bulb are de- 

 manding a stiff advance over last year's 

 prices on contract orders for next year. 



Large dealers in .Japanese fern balls 

 report that while the demand for the 

 larger sizes was rather slow during the 

 early part of the year, there is now an 

 active call ancl some largo stocks have 

 been cleaned up lately, consequently an 

 advance in price is looked for soon. 



A reliable Bermuda grower reports 

 that there is only 60 per cent of last 

 year's acreage planted to Harrisii this 

 year, and a shortage in the 7 to 3-incli 

 and larger sizes is looked for again.

THE KANSAS CITY SHOW. 



hiupcriuteudent .Juliu 'I'liurpc recently 

 visited Director General Taggart for 

 conference regarding the exhibition of 

 1902, and ilr. Thorpe also appeared be- 

 fore the Board of Directors of Conven- 

 tion Hall. 



In spite of the immense space in the 

 hall, more room was j;onsidered neces- 

 sary, and it has been decided to "annex 

 the roof." It seems there is a roof gardi'u- 

 on the building, and this will be used for 

 part of the exhibition. 



The amount of the jiremium list has 

 now been deftnitely settled, by the addi- 

 tion of .$500, making the total .$7,.')00. 

 Of this .$1,000 will be offered in prizes 

 for carnations. The carnation is com- 

 ing in for its share of attention now-a- 

 ilavs.
