The latest reports from Ollioules in- 

 dicate that crops of merchantable bulbs 

 will be short. 



The supply of lily of the valley pips 

 in good condition is so small and in so 

 few hands that prices are likely to ad- 

 vance steadily. 



The bulbs in the open appear to have 



bloomed as well as ever, in spite of the. 



fact that bulb forcers complained of 

 much blind stock. 



EousTAN, Servan & Cc, St. Remy, 

 France, one of the ten seed firms ac- 

 cused of enemy trading, have been ac- 

 quitted of the charge. 



CATALOQUBe of Holland bulbs recently 

 received shoVmany price corrections with 

 pen and ink, all of them advances. The 

 increases on narcissi are especially nu- 

 merous. 



Packers of peas in Utah, a compara- 

 tively new district for the packing of 

 peas on a large scale, are said recently 

 to have cleaned up a surplus of about 

 125,000 cases. 



Business is good for May,- but never- 

 theless it is the fag end of a season 

 fraught with an unusual number of dif- 

 ficulties and not up to general expecta- 

 tions in the total sales. 



The Albert Dickinson Ck)., Chicago, is 

 one of the claimants to the right of way 

 of the disused Illinois and Michigan 

 canal, on both banks of which the seed 

 concern owns property. A section of the 

 canal is being filled in by interests seek- 

 ing a test case in the courts. 



There is a gradual departure from the 

 use of the disclaimer, the employment of 

 which was world-wide a few years ago. 

 Grass seed is offered from Europe subject 

 to a guaranteed analysis and now a Dan- 

 ish firm guarantees that all seeds in its 

 sealed parcels are true to name. 



Ground has been broken for the first 

 two units of the new plant of Northrup, 

 King & Co., at Minneapolis. One of the 

 warehouses is to be 74x302 feet, two 

 stories and a basement. The main ware- 

 house will be 100x300 feet, four 

 stories, of concrete construction. In 

 addition to these buildings there will be 

 a cleaning house with grain tanks, a box 

 factory, a garage and heating plant. 



William A. Taylor, chief of rhe Bu- 

 reau of Plant Industry, U. S. Depart- 

 ment of Agriculture, Washington, D. C, 

 states that there is no foundation for 

 the rumor wh'ich has been current for 

 some weeks that the government is to 

 discontinue its bulb-growing experiments 

 at Bellingham, Wash. Chief Taylor 

 states: "Local changes of location are 

 necessary to afford adequate facilities
