 exactly the condition of the onion set 

 market as affectinji; the jobber and

 of the Kaercher Seed (^o., St. Louis, 

 Mo. "Furtlier (leveloj)inents are anx- 

 iously awaited," he said. 



Manthey's 8eed Store, of (Jinciiinati, 

 ()., reports a tine increase in counter 

 trade, the open winter creating a de- 

 mand from market jjardeners who take 

 risks in the bottom lands for an early 

 crop.

''Almost im])ossihle to make a liini 

 sale," observed S. Bash, of Rash's Seed 

 Store, Indianapolis, Ind., ''whether it 

 is buyiujj or selling;." The remark fol- 

 lowed the dejiarture of a farmer who, 

 though desirous of selling his crop of 

 clover seed, would not accept the offer

 most up-to il;itc establishments, has 

 ado])teil ;i clever system of stamping 

 each packet as it is taken from the 

 drawer with a rubber stamp for each

The Market (Jardeners' Seed Co., Cin- 

 cinnati, O., has doubled the store space

 center counter, horseshoe shaped and 

 fitted with Walker bins, will be a fea-

 of Peters Seed Co., Cinciniuiti, 0.. when 

 attention was called to a bale of hops 

 and bottles of malt extract on sale in 

 the windows. It swells sales and is 

 believed to be within the law, as no 

 objection has been made by the author-
