Koning, exporters of Holland bulbs, 

 last week advised the trade that the 

 steamer Waaldyk of the Holland- 

 America line had already sailed, and 

 that "the S. S. Schiedyk will sail vrffth 

 a cargo of bulbs and peonies." "No 

 date was given for the sailing of the 

 latter vessel. 



The letter further declares that a 

 cablegram from the "state department 

 at The Hague" assured Americans 

 that ' ' export of nursery stock is per- 

 mitted. Export of bulbs possible un- 

 der license." 



The government permits no announce- 

 ment of the movements of vessels, but 

 it is reported in the bulb trade and 

 among forwarding agents that the 

 Schiedyk sailed from Rotterdam Sep- 

 tember 21 with a cargo principally if not 

 wholly of bulbs. It was reported last 

 week that the Waaldyk was in Halifax, 

 due at New York September 25. 



These two boats bring about as many 

 bulbs as came in last year.
