Wax podded beans will likely fall 

 down to a seventy-five per cent delivery 

 on the average. 



There seems to be no fear that seed 

 of the early varieties of radish will be a 

 drug on the market. 



Latest advices from the European 

 growers do not add anything to the 

 estimates sent out a month ago. 



The demand for Crystal White Wax 

 and the Teneriflfe stock of Bermuda 

 onion seed is much below normal this 

 season. 



Spinach seed for present planting is 

 in strong demand. The high price asked 

 is likely to leave the supply suflScient, 

 however. 



Nebraska growers report vine seed 

 crops to be in bad condition generally. 

 Cucumber fields promise to make an ex- 

 ceptionally light crop. 



S. D. Dysinger, formerly with jj. L. 

 May & Co., St. Paul, and later manager

After harvesting what he says is one 

 of the nicest onion set crops he ever has 

 ^own, S. F. Leonard, of Chicago, is en- 

 joying a few days' fishing in northern 

 Michigan. 



Chr. Hansen, of Copenhagen, Den- 

 mark, is making a business trip through 

 the principal American cities. He has

Reports have it that cleaning and 

 picking operations at the different pea- 

 growing stations will soon begin. Full 

 deliveries on the smooth-seeded earlies 

 are looked for in most cases. It is 

 stated that contract orders for these va- 

 rieties were not placed so heavily as 

 usual and that this will tend to stiffen 

 the market. 



Henry A. Sertoli has resigned his 

 position with the W. W. Barnard Co., 

 Chicago, and has accepted a place with 

 the Bromfield-Colvin-Kies Co., of Bay 

 City, Mich. Mr. Bertoli is well known 

 to the seed trade, having made a thor- 

 ough study in the field work in growing 

 peas and beans for the last ten years. 



NEBRASKA SEED CROPS. 



C. P. Coy & Son, Waterloo, Neb., write 

 under date of September 3: "There is 

 fair prospect for sweet corn, but the 

 acreage is limited. Melons and cucum- 

 bers were badly injured by lice recently 

 and the prospect is not so good as it was 

 ten days ago. Yields will all depend on 

 how far the lice spread and whether they 

 let up on fields already infested. Sum- 

 mer and winter squash and pumpkins 

 promise fair returns."
