in many sections where planting had been 

 begun. In the southeast, in Alabama, 

 Georgia, South Carolina and Delaware, 

 heavy frosts are reported, doing much 

 damage to crops and necessitating re- 

 planting by many truckers. These or- 

 ders have already been felt in many 

 houses doing large trade with Southern 

 truckers. 



LATE FROST IN GEORGIA. 



Reports from Savannah, Ga., say that 

 great damage was done by the cold of 

 tlie night of April 2. Most of the crops 

 that had appeared above ground are re- 

 ported kille«l. Replanting will be neces- 

 sary for corn, melons and cantaloupes. 

 Truck, too, was badly damaged, peas, 

 beans and potatoes being partially or 

 totally killed. Tlie trucking industry is 

 an important one around Savannah and 

 the blow to the farmers is a serious one. 

 Other correspondents make the loss ap- 

 pear less heavy.

We are the orijrinators of the True Crystal Wax Onion and are ready to execute orders for this

formed as to the popular desire for 

 free seeds. Although all sorts of or- 

 ganizations last winter passed resolu- 

 tions condemning the free seed distri- 

 bution, and the agricultural and rural 

 press was almost a unit in opposing the 

 appropriation, from many points of the 

 country are coming evidences either that 

 the plain people really value the gov- 

 ernment seeds or that a movement has 

 been set on foot to counteract the cam- 

 paign of the seedsmen. Thus far it does 

 not appear that the evidence is manu- 

 factured. 



For instance, many congressmen left
