from a trip to Wetherfield, Conn., x>n 

 the sad mission to bury a relative. He 

 thinks the Nutmeg state will not pro- 

 duce more than an average crop of seed 

 stocks this year. 



At the Johnson Seed Store, Cleve- 

 land, the management finds itself 

 cramped for room, although it only re- 

 cently moved into the roomy store, it 

 now occupies. 



The Theijman Seed Co., of Erie, Pa., 

 finds that after striking the season's 

 balance it has broken even and consid- 

 ers it a satisfactory condition of af- 

 fairs, as the season was erratic. 



George L. Siegel, Erie's pioneer 

 seedsman, observed: ''Has it occurred 

 to you that no victim of infantile par- 

 alysis has been shown to be affected 

 by nicotine^ and, considering the quan- 

 tities of that useful insecticide, would 

 it not act as a preventive?" Surely this 

 is a subject for study. 



Manager Manley, of the Harvey 

 Seed Co., Buffalo, N. Y,, says that the 

 reports from the bean fields in western 

 New York are discouraging. The pea 

 bean and red kidney bean were for- 

 merly grown in large quantities, but 

 now they amount to almost lrt)thing.
