SPINACH. 



Eeports that the Dutch government 

 has placed an embargo on the exporta- 

 tion of spinach seed are not strictly ac- 

 curate; what has been done is to place 

 restrictions on the traffic. In order to 

 procure a permit to export spinach seed, 

 the Dutch seedsman is required to de- 

 posit with the government a certain 

 quantity of some article of food, for 

 which he is required to accept payment 

 at a rate that means the loss of a con- 

 siderable part of the profit on the spin- 

 ach. Nevertheless, considerable quan- 

 tities of spinach seed recently have ar- 

 rived from Holland. One Chicago house 

 received 2,200 pounds and there is record 

 of four other lots that have come since 

 the restrictions were imposed. 



The talk of 75 cents to $1 per pound 

 for spinach so far has proved unwar- 

 ranted. A Detroit house is said to be 

 quoting 60 cents, but the lot of 2,200 

 pounds above referred to was placed on 

 sale at 52 cents. There will not, how- 

 ever, be enough to go around at present

A Holland authority asserts that 

 three-quarters of all the spinach seed 

 grown in the world has been produced in 

 Holland, German exporters using Dutch 

 seed to fill their orders. He predicts 

 the quantity of spinach seed grown in 

 Holland this year will be considerably 

 less than the small quantity produced 

 in 1916.
