Pres., Henry W. Wood, Richmond, Va.; FlPBt 

 Vlce-Pres.. Charles Biirge, Toledo, O. ; Sec'y and 

 Treas., C. E Kendel. Cleveland. The 25th annual 

 meeting will be held at New York City, June 25 

 to 27, 1907. 



The market gardeners of Chicago and 

 other cities of the central west are won- 

 dering where they will land if summer 

 does not materialize before fall. 



Visited Chicago: — Frank T. Emerson, 

 former manager of the Western Seed 

 and Irrigation Co., Fremont, Neb. Mr. 

 Emerson is now interested in southern 

 California projects. 



The optimistic wholesaler says that 

 the unfavorable season and the resulting 

 see-sawing in trade was a good thing; 

 it kept in check many of the retailers 

 who are prone to overpurchase and the 

 outcome will be better all around. 



New York : — Seedsmen who are wholly 

 satisfied with the season's business, and 

 who have no kick to register against the 

 weather, and who think that the pros- 

 pects for the coming seed crop are en- 

 couraging will be just as welcome as the 

 others at the coming convention. 



Chicago: — June 1 is a very late date 

 to see onion seed planted for sets. The 

 growers here, however, are still pushing 

 the drill and have hopes that the acres 

 planted at this late date will pan out all 

 ri^ht. Onion seed in 100-pound lots is 

 still being shipped out. It goes to 

 pickle men, who expect to be enabled to 

 harvest a crop from it. In a usual year, 

 seeding that has been done later than 

 May 20 has failed to produce a good 

 crop at this point, but this is an un- 

 usual year and perhaps the late seeding 

 will prove satisfactory. The onion set 

 fields that were planted early are hold- 

 ing their own, but the . growth is slow 

 and the crop badly needs warmth. 



Beans are reported to be a sort of 

 drug in the market. There has been no 

 bean weather anywhere, apparently, and 

 until the soil warms up growers will take 

 no chances. Peas, on the other hand, 

 being a crop that market growers feel 

 safe in planting, even though the weather 

 is cold, are fairly well cleaned up. Sweet 

 com has been in good demand for re- 

 planting. There has been a good demand 

 for cucumber seed, and the wholesalers 

 are expecting a good call for turnip seed 

 in the near future. Beports generally 

 are to the effect that since the end of 

 March business has not been up to the 

 mark and that on the whole the season
