J[T BY SOWING SEED NOW you can have blossoms in pro- 

 ^^ fasion from springtime until July, being heaviest at Memo- 

 rial Day, when " flowers are flowers." There is no plant that will 

 equal Silver Pink for blossoms and profit. Our free cultural 

 directions make growing simple. Price of seed, $1.00 per pkt.; 

 3 pkts., $2.50; 7 pkts., $5.00. Cash.

to have been sold out completely. Of 

 tulips, all the yellow sorts are in de- 

 mand, and all late flowering sorts have 

 cleared out completely. Darwin tulips 

 are selling well. Gladioli are being 

 lifted and promise a good crop, but the 

 fancy prices of last year have dropped 

 to an ordinary level. 



Summer weather prevails at a time 

 of the year that usually sees frost and 

 the work of planting for the 1914 

 crop is much farther advanced than 

 is usual at this date. 



IMPORTS UNDER NEW TARIFF. 



The imports of seeds during the week 

 from October 4 to 11, the first week 

 under the new tariff law, were only 

 fairly heavy. Aside from the increased 

 duty on hyacinth bulbs, the only 

 changes made by the new law were 

 some reductions in the rates on vege- 

 table seeds, which have not yet this 

 season begun to arrive in quantities. 

 The bulb imports are included under 

 trees and plants in the New York cus- 

 toms house summaries and their value 

 cannot therefore be given, although it 

 undoubtedly is the greater part of the 

 $61,843 given as the total. The total 

 value of the peas imported was $10,254. 

 The week's imports of seeds were as 

 follows: 



Seed. Pounds. Value. 



Anise 11.200 $ 743 



Celery 37.800 6,403 



Coriander 75.000 3,519 



Fennel 13 



GraM 106,300 7.911 



Poppy 22,400 889 



Other 11,458 



DUTCH BULBS STILL COMING. 



The Rotterdam steamer that arrived 

 in New York October 14 brought a good 

 number of small consignments of 

 Dutch bulbs. The great majority of 

 this season's imports seem to have 

 come in under the wire in time to es- 

 cape the raised duty on hyacinth bulbs. 

 The consignments on the boat were as 

 follows :

The season 's total is fourteen cases

 the steamer Volturno, when it sank, 

 carried down with it a shipment of 

 Dutch bulbs consigned to R. F. Lang, 

 New York.
