The average yield per acre of Spencer 

 sweet peas ranges from 300 to 500 

 pounds and of grandifloras 500 to 800 

 pounds, and the total production in a 

 normal year is estimated to be 600,000 

 pounds. About one-fourth of this total 



{)roduction is said to be exported, most- 

 7 to England. 



MORE DUTCH BULBS. 



The steamer A. F. Luckenbach arrived 

 in New York from Rotterdam Septem- 

 ber 23 with 834 cases of Dutch bulbs, 

 bringing the season's total to date up 

 to 35,775 cases. This total is almost 

 twice as much as the 18,762 cases which 

 had been received a year ago, but it is 

 Btill short of the final total for last sea- 

 Bon, which was 36,026 cases. However, 

 the last shipment of that total did not 

 reach this country till January 8, 1920.

"Bumper crops of all kinds of corn 

 and cereals are in siglit," observed 

 Manager Windheim, of the Nebraska 

 Seed Co., Omaha, Neb., who recently 

 returned from a tour of the state. 

 *' Farmers will not hoard crops as in 

 past seasons, owing to the banks' re- 

 fusal to make advances. The result 

 will be felt by the retailer, who will be 

 able to buy for early delivery on an 

 easy market." 



"Splendid crops of everything with 

 the possible exception of blue grass," 

 reports Manager Luck, of T. Lee 

 Adams Seed Co., Kansas City, Mo. "A 

 few days of real warm weather will do 

 wonders to the corn crop locally, much 

 of which is green. We had a banner 

 seed season."
