HOLLAND BULB REPORT. 



The beginning of the new year was 

 as mild as if we were getting into sum- 

 mer instead of in the middle of the win- 

 ter, but those who made the mistake to 

 let themselves be fooled by this weather 

 had every reason to be sorry by the 

 middle of the month. At that time a 

 sudden change from rain into 12 de- 

 grees of frost, with a killing east wind 

 that did not fail to penetrate into the 

 deepest corners of every protected part 

 of the grounds, caused no little fright 

 among the growers who had already

partially uncovered their fields. How- 

 ever, it is not likely that any harm has 

 been done, as very probably- the soaked 

 grounds closed up into one mass of ice 

 and prevented the frost from getting 

 any deeper. As, however, next day saw 

 us in over 20 degrees of frost, with in- 

 creasing wind that chilled even men to 

 the very bones, the alarm became gen- 

 eral but nothing could be done and we 

 can only now await the results, which 

 will be fully reported upon as soon as 

 the cohl breaks and conditions have de-

THE CANNERS' CONVENTION.. 



The canners' convention, opening at 

 Buffalo, February 12 and continuing 

 through the week, was the largest in the 

 history of this rapidly growing industry. 

 Buffalo as a convention city cannot be 

 improved upon, but its many large and 

 up-to-date hotels were filled to overflow- 

 ing by the canners and • representatives 

 of the trades allied to the packing in- 

 dustry. More than 2,000 persons were 

 present. 



The several canners' associations held 

 daily sessions in the assembly room at 

 the Iroquois hotel. The trade exhibit 

 was locateid in the old Sixty-fifth Regi-
