JOHN F. RUPP, Shiremanstown, Pa 



JiIeDtion The Review when you write. 



forty-iive pounds are used by the best 

 growers. In order to facilitate the 

 harvesting of the hay, it is customary 

 to sow from one-half bushel to a bushel 

 of oats per acre with the common 

 vetch. Thirty pounds of good hairy 

 vetch seed and from one to two bushels 

 of oats per acre are usually sown. 

 Where hairy vetch has been grown 

 previously, twenty to twenty-five 

 pounds of vetch seed and two bushels 

 of oats, handled properly, will give 

 good yields on fertile soils. If vetch is 

 used for soiling, from fifty to eighty 

 per cent more seed should be sown than 

 when planted for hay. If used as a 

 winter cover crop, smaller quantities 

 will give good results. The seed should 

 be tested before planting and the quan- 

 tity of seed sown per acre regulated 

 accordingly, because of the variability 

 in the germination of vetch seed. This 

 variability is due partly to the uneven- 

 ness of the ripening of the vetch seed 

 and partly to the fact that some of the 

 seed must necessarily be harvested in 

 an immature state. 



ST. LOUIS. 



The Southwestern Market. 



The wholesale markets are still loaded 

 up with stock that is poor in quality. 

 The long dry spell has fairly burned up 

 the outdoor stock. From reports of the 

 wholesalers, extremely little business is 

 going on at present, and low prices are 

 prevailing on all grades of stock. The 

 retailers say that if it were not for 

 funeral work, there would be absolutely 

 nothing some days. They are looking 

 forward to a revival of business when 

 the schools open the first Monday in 

 September. 



In looking over the stock at the dif- 

 ferent wholesale markets, we find a glut 

 in single everblooming tuberoses, which 

 are being offered as low as $1 per hun- 

 dred, and even cheaper in thousand lots. 

 Gladioli, too, have been coming in too 

 strong for this market during the last 

 week. Asters are coming along better, 

 and some extra good stock was seen last 

 week, but the bulk of it is poor. Boses 

 are plentiful. The hot weather caused 

 the shipments to arrive in poor shape. 

 A fine lot of Ea&ter lilies come in daily. 

 Good stock in carnations is out of the 

 question now. Smilax is still scarce, but 

 all other greens are in plenty. 



Various Notes. 



Samuel Seligman, representing Wert- 

 heimer Bros., of New York, spent part 

 of last week with the trade here. Mr. 

 Seligman arranged to meet the St. Louis 

 florists at Quincy and to travel with 

 them to the convention city. 



Wm. R. Karlstrom, of W. A. Manda, 

 South Orange, N. J., received a letter 

 while here, from Mr. Manda, informing 

 him that the firm had received twenty 

 prizes in the show held at Ghent, Bel- 

 gium. 



Otto Lang, of the Lang Floral & 

 Nursery Co., Dallas, Tex., passed 

 through here on his way to Minneapolis. 

 Mr. Lang reports that they are building 

 a range of new glass costing $30,000. 



President-elect Pilcher and Vice-Pres- 

 ident-elect Jaenicke are formulating 

 plans for the fall and winter meetings 

 of the Florists' Club, and with them in 

 harness some highly interesting meet- 

 ings may be looked for. 



At Angermueller 's, while the \)08s is 

 away attending the S. A. F. convention, 

 the place is being overhauled and re-
