The Albert Diekihson Co., Chicago, re- 

 ceived an importation of $30,000 in gold 

 from Europe November 23. 



The skirmish for sweet corn is re- 

 ported to have reached the stage of 

 overbidding the other fellows' contracts. 



The Binghamton Seed Co., Bingham- 

 ton, N. Y., has been incorporated with 

 $25,000 capital stock by William B. 

 Cleves, Harry H. Evans and N. Leroy 

 Boyce, all of Binghamton. 



Speaking of onion sets, it is a notice- 

 able fact that the whites, no matter 

 where found, are showing a dry rot that 

 is shortening them up; and the worst 

 feature is that there is no way to stop it. 



At Chicago the week opened with the 

 market for timothy seed quiet. Novem- 

 ber, $4.20, and March, $4.50. Country 

 lots quoted at $3.60 to $4.20. Clover 

 seed, November closed at $15, cash lots 

 at $10 to $14.50. 



The seeds of the flat varieties of 

 onions are likely to range around $2 per 

 pound in the retail catalogues. The 

 Globes will stand at about last year's 

 prices, with the exception of White 

 which will hardly be less than $4 per 

 pound and perhaps as high as $5. The 

 Italian sorts will not be changed much 

 and the American Silverskin will sell 

 around $2. These prices are the ideas 

 of one or two parties who are anxious to 

 get things settled, and if they do not 

 correspond with the ideas of others on 

 account of being too low they may be al- 

 tered before the presses are started. It 

 18 pretty certain, however, that they will 

 not be lowered. 



SEED TRADE IN FRANCE. 



A writer in the Journal of the French 

 Trade Federation, in describing the 

 grievances under which the seed trade 

 languishes in that country, makes heavy 

 accusations against the wholesale trade 

 tte states that a large number of whole- 

 sale houses, not content with the custom 

 ot the recognized retailers, have organ-

 or knowledge of the articles dealt in; 

 many of whom, by their methods of busi- 

 ness, have brought serious discredit on 

 the trade as a body. While the city and 

 suburban trade is cut up by these tactics, 

 the country peasants and farmers are 



largely supplied by syndicates, philan- 

 thropic and otherwise; which many of 

 the wholesale houses treat on trade terms, 

 thus enabling them to supply their mem- 

 bers with seeds in small quantities on 

 wholesale lines. The writer states that
