not much aphis and the fields are in excel- 

 lent condition. The only thing that may 

 make for a short crop is the fact that 

 greens are selling at an unprecedente^ly 

 high price and many growers are cutting 

 their fields for market. 



THE NIEUW AMSTERDAM IS IN. 



Tlie Nieuw Amsterdam, of the Hol- 

 land-America Line, from Rotterdam, ar- 

 rived at New York Sunday, January 5, 

 with troops and a cargo consisting large- 

 ly of nursery stock and bulbs. The 

 quantity of gladiolus bulbs arriving on

PLANT PUEE PEAS. 



The Wisconsin farmers who grow peas 

 for food purposes have used home-saved 

 seed year after year until their seed 

 stocks have deteriorated to the point 

 where, according to the Wisconsin Seed 

 Co., of Milwaukee, the product is so 

 mixed as to have lost value. In a cir- 

 cular letter the seed company says: 



Wisconsin dried peas have always brought a 

 premium and found ready sale t>ecause of their 

 superior quality. Year after year, however, 

 their quality hag been deteriorating, until at the 

 present time we find the stock almost unsalable. 

 Something must be done to remedy this condi- 

 tion. If the farmer does not grow peas suitable 

 for human consumption, he will have a hard time 

 disposing of his crop at any fair value. 



We caution the fanner this coming season 

 to sow pure seed, not to keep the seed he has 

 on hand from his last crop, but to buy seed 

 from another locality and hand-pick it, making 

 sure of absolutely the finest stock, so that he 

 will grow a crop of good quality, find that Wis- 

 consin once more can boast of the best quality 

 of dried peas. 



Unless this is done and the farmers use care 

 and precaution in growing their crops, the dried 

 peas cannot be used to advantage, because even 

 at the present time the green variety is badly
