Announcement of the demise of G. V. 

 Van Zanten, oldest partner of Van 

 Zanten Bros., Hillegom, Holland, is made 

 on the obituary page of this issue. 



The 1922 production of crimson clover 

 seed is expected to be larger than last 

 year's small crop, although it will not 

 apj)roach the heavy production of 1918 

 and 1919, according to reports received 

 by the United States Department of 

 Agriculture. 



On his way to visit relatives in Phila- 

 delphia, E. Malis, proprietor of the Santa 

 Barbara Seed Co., Santa Barbara, Cal., 

 stopped in Chicago June 12. Previously 

 engaged in the landscape architects' 

 profession, Mr. Malis opened a seed store 

 four years ago and has been adding to 

 its lines and to its business ever since. 



Although the world war stimulated 

 the production of most kinds of vegetable 

 and field seeds, it had a deterrent effect 

 upon the production of other kinds com- 

 monly exported from this country, such 

 as timothy, redtop, meadow fescue and 

 Kentucky bluegrass. High hay prices, in- 

 creased acreages of food crops and limited 

 demand for seeds of grass crops from 

 European countries, among other factors, 

 resulted in the cutting of a smaller acre- 

 age of the grasses for seed purposes dur- 

 ing the war. 



The pea crop is unusually backward in 

 both New York and Wisconsin. One can- 

 ner reports that usually farmers start 

 their planting the first and second week 

 in April, but it was May 1 before any seed 

 was put in the ground. Even then the 

 work could not bo done continuously. 

 April 25 in one district a heavy snow fell. 

 A Wisconsin posting is to the effect that 

 planting was three to four weeks late, 

 a- the entire state experienced cold 

 w ther in March and April. Whereas 

 planting often is done by March 25, it 

 was April 24 this year before it was 

 started. Many canncrs will not be able to 

 get in all of their contracted acreage, 

 while others have rushed in a large plant- 

 ing, which will result in a heavy yield all 

 at once unless the summer is cool, allow- 

 ing a slower growth. 



REDUCED RATE TO CHICAGO. 



A reduction to one and one-half fare 

 for the round trip on the certificate plan 

 will apply for members, as well as de- 

 pendent members of their families, at- 

 tending the meetings of the American 

 Seed Trade Association, the Association 

 of Official Seed An;ilysts and the Whole- 

 sale Grass Seed Dealers' Association, at 

 Chicago, June 21 to 23.
