lieved that most o( these bulbs can be propa 

 gated and grown in this country, provided that 

 our growers can meet the competition of cheap 

 labor in Holland. 



When paragraph 217, containing the 

 duties on poppy and other seeds, was 

 reached. Senator Smoot, of Utah, asked 

 that the items canary seed, caraway 

 seed and anise seed go over until the 

 next day. Senator Williams hoped there 

 would be no delay and that the senator 

 might make his suggestion and have 

 the paragraph disposed of. Senator 

 Smoot said he would take little time in 

 discussing these three items and asked 

 that they go over. The committee 

 amendments in the section were agreed 

 to, excepting those on the seeds Senator 

 Smoot wanted to discuss. The amend- 

 ment, that seeds of all kinds not spe- 

 cially provided for be taxed 5 cents a 

 pound, was then adopted. 



HIGH HEAT AT SACRAMENTO. 



Although the extreme heat in the 

 Sacramento river district, in which im- 

 portant seed crops are grown, is not 

 now so vital a factor as it was earlier in 

 the season, the conditions are not in 

 any way favorable. Here is the oflBcial 

 record at Sacramento for the first three 

 days of this week:

DUTCH BULB ABBIVALS. 



The shipments of Dutch bulbs are 

 steadily becoming heavier, this 

 week's arrivals far exceeding all pre- 

 vious ones. The steamer from Eotter- 

 dam which reached New York August 

 18 brought a large number of cases and 

 the boat which arrived two days later 

 brought one big consignment. The 

 consignments on both boats were as 

 follows:

DUTCH BULBS. 



Tulips were in at the time of the last 

 report from Holland, and, although the 

 crop is fairly good, there is not such an 

 abundance as last year, and of the 

 cheaper varieties fully one-third less. 

 Darwin tulips are in good demand 

 again, and will be sold out before long, 

 while many of the May-flowering cot- 

 tage varieties are scarce. 



The hyacinth crop generally is short 

 and really first-size bulbs are scarce 

 this season. The prices on blue and 

 yellow" sorts are considerably higher 

 than last year, and some of the early 

 varieties, that have suffered most from 

 the unfavorable spring, are not to be 

 had in good size. 



Crocuses are a fine crop, but will hold 

 their own, as too many of smaller sizes 

 were sold last year. Narcissi have 

 suffered from last year's late planting, 

 which caused many stocks to root poor- 

 ly, and the bulbs ripened off too. soon 

 this spring. Many of the irises have 

 suffered from the same cause and are 

 likely to give only a light crop. 



Cold and rainy weather has been
