Mail orders have been affected by the 

 bad weather in the middle west last 

 week. It takes bright sun to load the 

 mailbags. 



If peas can not be sold they can be 

 planted and it looks as though the acre- 

 age will be at least as great as the situ- 

 ation justifies. It is just the other way 

 with beans. 



Wax beans are at a premium, as there 

 are practically none on the market. The 

 only hope lies in the small growers. In 

 fact, anything in the shape of a bean 

 brings from $6 to $8 per bushel. 



S. r. Leonard, of the Leonard Seed 

 Co., Chicago, who has been confined to 

 his home in Oak Park with the grip fpr 

 three weeks, is rapidly improving and 

 expects to go south for a two weeks' 

 rest. 



Cass Lannikg, who started in the 

 seed business at Nowata, Okla., twelve 

 years ago with a capital of $500, is now 

 in his new $6,000 building. He has 

 added garden tools, poultry supplies and 

 spray pumps to his lines of stock. 



The unexpected has happened: tube- 

 rose bulbs and the largest sizes of cala- 

 diums have turned scarce. It is said 

 some of the tuberose growers had so 

 little confidence in the future they did 

 not harvest all their crops last autumn. 



"We are shipping large quantities of 

 all kinds of field seeds into the cotton 

 country, which is tangible evidence that 

 the cotton acreage will be greatly re- 

 duced this year," says H. J. Rankin, 

 of McKay, Reece & Co., of Nashvi^e, 

 Tenn. 



A train of t«n carloads of onion sets 

 pulled out of the freight yards of the 

 Northwestern railroad at Chicago, 

 March 6, for Brandon, Manitoba. The 

 sets belonged to A. E. McKenzie, who 

 purchased them from the Leonard Seed 

 Co. Mr. McKenzie accompanied the 

 train to insure proper care of the ship- 

 ment. 



There are said still to be large quan- 

 tities of valley pips in storage at Ham- 

 burg, but only small quantities are ar- 

 riving in America, since the market here 

 is thought to be already loaded. Last 

 week's arrivals were limited to one lot 

 via Christiansand, twenty-four cases 

 consigned to Charles Schwake & Co., but 

 it brought the season's imports via New
