California had its spell of hot weather 

 last week, all records being broken at 

 many points. 



The large new seed house erected by 

 the A. D. Mebane Seed Co., at Lock- 

 hart, Tex., is completed and now being 

 filled with seed. 



The Door County Seed Co., Sturgeon 

 Bay, Wis., September 15 received the 

 first car of peas over the new sidetrack 

 to its warehouse at St. John and Water 

 streets. 



Ten cases of French bulbs consigned 

 to P. C. Kuyper & Co. arrived on the 

 Marseilles steamer which reached New 

 York September 16, raising the season's 

 total to 18,587 cases. 



There seems to be no gladiolus mix- 

 ture so poor that the department stores 

 are not anxious for more; the demand 

 for cheap bulbs never is satisfied, either 

 by quantity or concessions. 



From Millard county, Utah, come re- 

 ports that alfalfa seed, its principal crop, 

 is greater than for years, and of fine 

 quality. In other sections of Utah there 

 are better crops of alfalfa seed than 

 usual. 



On the Bermuda boat reaching New 

 York September 15 there were three 

 cases of Harrisii bulbs for export. Sep- 

 tember 18 there arrived two cases con- 

 signed to L. D. Crossmond & Co. and 

 one case to the Eeitman-Pilser Co. The 

 total receipts are now 2,300 cases. 



Improvements are being made in its 

 plant by the Gates City Seed Co., of 

 Keokuk, la., to the extent of $6,000. 

 The two present buildings, twenty-four 

 feet apart, will be connected by a brick 

 addition four stories high. Elevators 

 and a mill are among the improvements 

 to be added. 



There is, perhaps, more cauliflower 

 seed used on Long Island than elsewhere 

 in the whole United States combined. 

 The acreage there in cauliflower this 

 season is about 1,800. So far the crop 

 is not up to its usual standard. The 

 heads are small and not filled out as 

 they should be, due to unfavorable grow- 

 ing weather. 



SUTTON GETS VEITOH'S SEEDS. 



Announcement is made that Sutton & 

 Sons, Reading, England, have purchased 

 from J. Veitch & Sons, Ltd., the seed 

 business carried on at Chelsea for the 

 last sixty years, and this department, 

 with the stocks of seeds and horti- 

 cultural sundries, will be transferred 

 to Sutton & Sons as from October 1, 

 1913. Messrs. Sutton have also pur- 

 chased from Veitch & Sons the princi- 

 pal portion of the seed grounds at 

 Langley, near Slough, adjoining the 

 G. W. railway, but Messrs. Veitch 'b 

 nursery trade will still be carried on
