BRITISH FLOWER SEEDS SHORT. 



"We are feeling tlio effect of a poor 

 seed crop Last year," states a British 

 contemporary. ' ' There is not enough 

 seed of a good many popular lines to go 

 around. Wallflower, polyanthus, Canter- 

 bury bell and some other flower seeds 

 are almost unobtainable. To some ex- 

 tent, the reason is that of late years 

 vegetable seeds have been in so great 

 demand that growers and merchants 

 rather ignored llowers. Last year V/Cg- 

 etable seeds wore considerably oiVer- 

 done. Grower.i turned again to flowers 

 and planned (o increase their sowings, 

 but meantime spring frosts had cripplcfl 

 a good many cr()]is, high prices of flow- 

 ers brought many into the market that 

 might otherwise have stood to produce 

 seed, and now the merchants have 

 I'mpty drawers and ])ilcs of unexecut- 

 i'd orders."
