HOLLAND'S EXPORTS OF SEEDS. 



Present indications are that the seed- 

 growing industry of the Netherlands, 

 which had assumed large proportions 

 before the war, is resuming its extent 

 and vitality, especially in nortli Hol- 

 land and Groningen. The trade in lO-O 

 was good, and while the total exports 

 were considerably less than during the 

 preceding year, the decrease was due 

 almost wholly to the fact that in 19 lit 

 there was an abnormal demand in Uer- 

 many for seed peas and beans and mis- 

 cellaneous garden seeds to restock tlic 

 country after the war, according to the 

 statement of George E. Anderson, 

 United' States consul at Rottenhini. 

 There were decreased exports of cara- 

 way seeds to the United States and 

 Great Britain, because of ovcrstockinji 

 the year before. The exports of yellow 

 mustard seed to the United States were 

 also much smaller. Most other iin 

 portant items showed increases. 



Tiie exports of seeds from the Nether- 

 lands in the last two years have been 

 as follows:

About seventy-live per cent of the 

 linseed went to Ireland in botli years. 

 Germany takes about half and Great 

 Britain a sixth of the rape seed, while 

 the United States and Belgium divide 

 the remainder of the exports. The 

 United States imported about eighty- 

 five pel; cent of the total exports of 

 po])py seed, while of the exports dt' 

 caraway seed Germany took thirty-five 

 per cent, the United States twenty- 

 per cent, Austria eighteen per cent, and 

 Czeclioslovakia and Great Britain the 

 rest. The United States takes a fair 

 amount of the yellow mustard seed, 

 though the trade fell off greatly last 

 year. The brown mustard seed goes 

 almost entirely to Belgium, Denmark,
