The cantaloupe that was cut by hail 

 at Rocky Ford has been replanted. 



The Albert Dickinson Co., Chicago, 

 maintains a team of employees in the 

 local Industrial League of baseball 

 <;lubs. 



Our friends the pea packers, who were 

 beginning to despair of a crop, were 

 greatly encouraged by last week's gen- 

 eral rains. 



American grown radish is gaining in 

 reputation and the acreage for 1914 prob- 

 ably will turn out to be the largest ever 

 planted outside of France. 



When the seed trade visits Washing- 

 ton this month there will be two places 

 of special interest — the government seed 

 laboratory and the laboratory of the 

 canneis' association. 



Of peas the acreage is reported as 

 somewhat larger than last year, with 

 present conditions satisfactory, although 

 it is well known that the critical stage 

 has not yet been reached. 



Extreme heat seems to be the portion 

 of Iowa, Kansas and Nebraska. Noth- 

 ing approaching last season's conditions 

 have developed thus early, of course, but 

 last week the three states were the hot- 

 test in the country, warmer even than the 

 gulf states. 



Aphis now in the clover is likely to 

 destroy the entire seed crop in the Ore- 

 gon district if the clover is not cut im- 

 mediately, according to Cecil W. Creel, 

 United States government expert on 

 clover, who has his headquarters at For- 

 est Grove, Ore. Already some damage 

 has been done and the greater the delay 

 the larger the loss. 



Publication of the annual lists of 

 holders of Chicago bank stocks shows 

 Joseph J. Budlong, who once upon a 

 time had onion sets as his chief interest, 

 as the largest stockholder in the Lake 

 View Trust and Savings Bank, of which 

 he is president. The lists show he holds 

 398 shares, quoted at 178 bid. The 

 bank has increased its capital items near- 

 ly $100,000 in the last year. 



Accounts coming to hand as the trade 

 casts up its season's totals indicate that 

 the mail order business for 1914 has set 

 a new record. Practically all the newer, 

 pushing middle western and southern 

 catalogue houses are reporting larger in- 

 creases than in any previous year and 

 several of the older eastern concerns with 

 established, stable business, say they have 

 had unusually good business this year. 

 Most of them credit climatic conditions 

 as largely responsible. It was a long 

 season.
