The New York office of Segers Bros., 

 Ltd., has advised that the German flo- 

 rists have been authorized to purchase 

 "jOO per cent more Holland bulbs than in 

 1920, when the amount did not exceed 

 twenty-five carloads. In addition to this, 

 the seed trade, which last year imported 

 none, has obtained permission to import 

 2,000,000 marks ' worth.

DUTCH BULB MARKET BREAKS. 



Cables from Holland offer bulbs at 

 such widely varying prices that it seems 

 to indicate the market has gone to 

 pieces. A number of the largest import- 

 ers in this country are known not to 

 have placed any orders thus far. They 

 are receiving many offers by cable.
