'I'liK I'rost kept oir long enougli to give 

 tlir vine seed growers all that was i-oin- 

 \i\<X to them from this year's erop. 



If the Long Island seed crops will 

 only do the right thing there may bo 

 r;ilil)age seed enough to go around. 



TiiK J.ivingston See<l Co., Columbus, 



t ).. has purchased the stock of Philip- 



|iine lily bulbs grown by Dr. Nceley, of 

 I'.Mulding. 



TiiK latest icjiorts from the I'acific 

 i-oast are more encouraging. There will 

 i)e some fair ihdiveries made on onion 

 seed after all. 



TnK long, warm autumn has been 

 favorable to the tomatoes ripening for 

 seed and the yield will be larger than 

 \\:is anticipated. 



From present indications it looks as 

 though the coming year will be a good 

 one for the seedsman who has the right 

 sort of stock on hand. 



FoK the filth successive year the 

 Archias Seed Store, Sedalia, has won 

 lirst premium for its display of seeds 

 at the Mis.souri State Fair. 



There is some complaint from onion 

 growers that the bulbs are not keeping 

 well this year. As might be expected, 

 they blame the seed for this. 



It is reported that neither peas nor 

 beans will cause much anxiety to either 

 the grower or the purchaser after the 

 leturns are all in. It is not stated when 

 that will be, however. 



The onion set grower is asked to guar- 

 antee that his goods will remain firm and 

 sound for three months after they are 

 in the warehouse of the purchaser. This 

 is asking almost too much.

 Hnrteldes Seed Co., Lawrence, i\an.; F.

 giaiio ^: Son. HaltinHJic, .Md. 



Tills week <'liii-ago has been the cen- 

 ter of disturbance in the onion set mar- 

 ket ; last week it was Louisville. It is 

 exjicctcd that it will switch around to 

 li.-iltiinoie and J'hiladelphi.'t later. 



Wnii radish seed scarce, the popular 

 varieties (d' iiinon seed almost beyond 

 reach, and the editors of the cut rate 

 seed catalogues hoMiiig back copy, 

 things are quite interesting as a whole. 



L\ l'eiiiisyl\:iiiia tiie opposition to the 

 free s<'ed scheme and the conse(|ueiit 

 waste of go\ eminent money is manifest- 

 ing itself strongly. Organization after 

 organization of farmers, notably the 

 m-aiige bodies, h.as decdared against the 

 uaste rjf government money in s<'ed dis 

 t ritudion.
