UP-TO-DATE GREENHOUSES 



must be lasting, convenient and efficient. They must be constructed 

 in accordance with the principles which have been approved by knowl- 

 edge and experience. We have been in the greenhouse manufacturing 

 business for many years and our experience is at your disposal. 



Our patent LEAK-PROOF locked gutter has proven a success. If 



-| -. you are not using the same as yet, do so on your next houses and we 



L=. 1 know we can add your name to our list of satisfied customers.

LETTUCE. Quite small planting. 



MANGEL. - WURZEIi. SUGAR BEET. Be- 

 cause of the high wages and the high corn, 

 flax and sugar prices and also because people 

 did little in transplanting the sprouts, the 

 planting hai been greatly neglected, so that 

 it Is hardly possible to meet even the home 

 requirements in many varieties. The crop 

 prospects are not bad; however, recently the 

 plants have been attacked by lice. 



ONION. Small planting of the Dutch sorts. 

 In general, the other varieties are altogether 

 lacking. Stand rather satisfactory. 



PARSNIP. Small planting. Stand middling, 

 here and there rather feeble. 



PEAS. Of the early varieties the plantings 

 are fairly sufficient; of the others there are 

 only smaller fields. Stand good. 



PEAS, SUGAR. The principal varieties have 

 been sown in rather considerable lots, the 

 others in smaller plantings. Stand satisfactory. 



PEAS, WRINKLED. Generally small plant- 

 ing. Stand satisfactory. 



SCORZONERA. SORREL. Almost normal 

 plantings. Stand rather good. 



SWEDE TURNIP OR RUTABAGA. The un- 

 favorable situation has decreased the planting 

 of this seed considerably. At some places there 

 are worms in the shells; for the rest, the 

 stand is satisfactory. 



SWISS CHARD. Medium planting; prospects 

 for crop are satisfactory. 



TURNIP. This planting, liJce the mangel- 

 wurzel planting, is small, and for the same 

 reasons. At the slightest cause the growers 

 have subsoiled their fields and, in consequence, 

 the production this year has decreased con- 

 siderably. 



FLOWER SEEDS. 



Although the plantings have been greatly 

 limited, owing to the war, the assortment has 

 become somewhat larger again. At the time of 

 planting, the soil and weather conditions were 

 quite favorabU- for the small plants; the 

 growth is excellent and a good crop may be 

 expected if the weather, upon which much de- 

 pends, is favorable.
