SEED CHOPS IN GEBMANT. 



It has been generally understood that 

 the German seed growers were this 

 year enjoying as favorable conditions 

 as prevail anywhere in the world, and 

 much better than the California grow- 

 ers have to contend with. But late 

 reports from Erfurt indicate that some 

 uneasiness is being occasioned by the 

 continued overcast skies; the growers 

 appear to be getting nervous while 

 waiting for the sun to come out and 

 mature the crops. 



The season started early, but is now 

 at least a fortnight late. While there 

 was little heat and almost no rain up 

 to well into July, the seasonal average 

 of precipitation was maintained by the 

 continuous rains that came in the lat- 

 ter part of July. Growth with most 

 crops is robust, but warm, bright sum- 

 mer weather is badly needed to induce 

 a timely maturity. 



It is said that parsley is in splendid ' 

 shape, while carrot and parsnip also 

 are in flourishing condition. Neither 

 radish nor lettuce is giving excep- 

 tional promise, but both nevertheless 

 are good. Turnip promises an average 

 crop. Cabbage, cauliflower and the 

 other members of the brassica family 

 are all that could be expected, indi- 

 cating full crops. Beet stands fairly 

 well. Onion is in fine shape. Peas
