The small surplus in canners' ware- 

 houses, 800,000 cases as against 4,000,000 

 a year ago, augurs a greater demand for 

 peas next season. 



Shipments of Phoenix Eoebelenii seeds 

 are now en route, the first substantial 

 shipments since the war began, but it will 

 likely be late in December before they 

 will arrive, state McHutchison & Co., New 

 York. 



Fire at the establishment of the 

 Kaercher Seed Co., St. Louis, Mo., caused 

 a loss of $5,000, November 10. Defective 

 wiring was said to have been the cause. 

 The blaze was confined to the upper floors. 

 The loss was fully covered by insurance. 



Tvi'O visitors from across the water re- 

 turned this week. Frank R. Walsh, of 

 W. W. Johnson & Son, Ltd., Boston, Eng- 

 land, and Mr. Lamb, of Cooper, Taber & 

 Co., Ltd., London, England, sailed from 

 New York early this week. 



The first shipment of German valley 

 pips has just arrived at New York via 

 Holland. In spite of the drought in 

 Europe, the quality is as good as last sea- 

 son, but the price considerably less. The 

 first shipments direct from Germany will 

 arrive during the next two weeks.
