of carrot seed and a normal crop of all 

 varieties of lettuce seed. Onion seed 

 is in fine condition, not showing any 

 damage from tlie hot weather so far. 

 The crop of beet seed does not promise 

 so well. Many of the plants did not 

 make seed and the stalks are being 

 plowed up. Sweet peas in bloom have 

 Iseen so ])adly damaged by the heat and 

 aphis that no seed at all will be har- 

 vested in some places.

 with good success.
