rieties ordered a little late in the sea- 

 son, and owing to the increase in th6 

 size of our orders, do not anticipate 

 much, if any, surplus, with possibly the 

 e;tception of a few varieties. 



Nearly all early and medium early 

 sweet corn crops in Nebraska, in so far 

 as we know, are in fair condition, and 

 we believe they will make good crops 

 and become well matured. The same will 

 apply to our crops of Stowell's Ever- 

 green and Country Gentleman, but our 

 crops of Mammoth Late, Egyptian, and 

 Zig-Zag Evergreen are practically fail- 

 ures. 



We have received favorable reports 

 from nearly all of our growers of flint 

 and field corns, also cucumber, and other 

 vine seeds, although a few of our crops 

 were damaged slightly in one locality 

 by hail. We believe, however, they have 

 recovered, and will make fair crops. 



Generally speaking, we do not look 

 for any large surplus crops this season ; 

 neither do we look for any excessively 

 short crops, excepting a few varieties. 



NOVELTY IN CABBAGE LETTUCE. 



Cultivators are notoriously suspicious 

 of novelties in salad plants, as in other 

 vegetable productions, but the new va- 

 riety of cabbage lettuce, Ruhm von 

 Frankfurt, according to a writer in Mul- 

 ler's Deutsche Gartner Zeitung, is a 

 great acquisition for cultivation in 

 frames for early work, and the price it 

 fetches in the market per head is nearly

double that of any other variety. In 

 firmness it excels many of the later va- 

 rieties. It is of great advantage that it 

 can be grown under the same degree of 

 warmth as that afforded cucumbers and 

 melons, and with as little ventilation as 

 those plants. It makes good, firm heads 

 even when it is planted at the front part 

 of the frames. Unlike other varieties, 

 the heads have so much solidity that it 

 is necessary, in order to allow the flower 

 shoots to free themselves, to cut them 

 open. This makes seed saving a work
