one who does not know how this situation stands 

 exactly and which is as follows: 



Cherry (Mazzard): As scarce as last year. 



Cherry (Mahaleb) : About the same quantity 

 as last year. 



Quince: Barer than last year. 



Pear: About the same as last year, with a 

 larger demand in France than last year. 



Apple (comuMn) : About the same quantity as 

 last year, with a larger demand in France than 

 last year. 



Apple (English Paradise) : Quantity smaller 

 than that of last year. 



Plum (Myrobalan): About one-flftb of the 

 quantity which was available last year. The 

 prices established by our committees are not suf- 

 ficient to cover all the expenses, as the seeds 

 have been bought at a high price and not ten 

 per cent of them have grown. 



Plum (St. Julien) : Same situation as Myro- 

 balan plum. 



Bose stocks: Canina and Manetti ure avail- 

 able in about the same quantities as last year. 



All prices have been established, taking into 

 consideration the situation of the crop. If some 

 French nurserymen have quoted higher prices 

 than those fixed, this is due to their special sit- 

 uation. Either they were short on an article, 

 being themselves buyers of it, or, as was the 

 case with several of the largest buyers of Myro- 

 balan seed last season, the seeds were so bad 

 that most of the lot had to be thrown away and 

 are actually used as pavement for the paths of 

 the nurseries. They may sell the stock at any 

 price; it will be impossible for them to recover 

 the money paid for the seeds. 



Mr. Stark has expressed the opinion that the 

 Ugh prices of this season have been fixed by us 

 as recompense for the assistance rendered to 

 France by America during the war. 



Our American friend, regarding whom wo 

 highly appreciate the gallant part he took in the 

 war, has certainly not retained his thought long 

 eoDogh to examine the question in its exact sit- 

 natien and be Is far from the question when he 

 e«ai|Mres the Holland situation with the French 

 oae. 



We will leave the question of the quality of 

 the Holland fruit tree stocks aside and consider 

 ealy the econ o mic situation of both nations, Hol- 

 land and France. 



nr«t, our American friend has been wrongly 

 Informed that France was able last autumn and 

 this spring to work normally. This was the sit- 

 uation of the Hollanders and other neutrals who 

 have not suffered from the war, but not of the 

 Frenchmen, who had first to clean their nurs- 

 eries upon coming back, whereas the Hollanders. 

 who had been at home during the war and have 

 made profits out of it, were ready to work and 

 to compete in all markets. 



Onr situation is now the following one: 



Owing to the high rates of exchange demanded 

 by our American and British allies and by the 

 neutrals, all the articles we are obliged to buy 

 abroad are paid for by us at two or three times 

 their value. Coal is about five times its former 

 value, as an example. If Frenchmen sell to 

 their allies or to neutrals who make high profits 

 by exchanging French money, they will soon be 

 ont of business. After having won the war they 

 will be totally beaten in the economic struggle.
