Seedsmen will be interested in the 

 paper of L. C. Gorbett, on lettnce, ap- 

 pearing elsewhere in this issue. 



Abchias ' Seed Stobe, Sedalia, Mo., re- 

 ports an excellent trade on fail bulbs, 

 even with geraniums not injured by frost 

 as late as November 1. 



There still is plenty of cold storage 

 valley, with the new crops due in a few 

 days, so it looks like being pretty near 

 a scramble to clean up. 



It looks as though, instead of asking 

 as much as conditions will warrant, most 

 of the seed catalogues for 1909 will hold 

 prices down on the scarce items. 



Now that the wholesale price lists are 

 out, the work on the general seed lists 

 can progress. A good many of them are 

 well along, only waiting for confirmation 

 of prices, and will be out early. 



The Livingston Seed Co., Columbus, 

 was the only seed house represented at 

 the meeting of vegetable forcers for or- 

 ganization, at Cleveland October 30 and 

 31, an account of which is printed on 

 another page. 



The early wholesale lists do not show 

 as great increases in prices on some of 

 the scarce items as conditions would 

 appear to make possible, but the quanti- 

 ties which can be obtained at the prices 

 quoted will doubtless be found to depend 

 largely on who the buyer is, or on the 

 rest of the order. 



Alexander Cross, of Alex. Cross &

 is one of the few British horticultural 

 traders who aspires to parliamentary 

 honors. He is member of parliament 

 for the Camlachie division of Glasgow 

 and is now on his honeymoon trip on the 

 Italian lakes, having married Miss Agnes 

 Jane Lawrie, daughter of a Glasgow 

 shipbuilder. 



W. Atlee Burpee & Co. sent out their 

 advance wholesale list dated October 17. 

 It showed nearly as many price changes 

 down as up, compared with last year. 

 Pole beans are a slight advance, cucum- 

 ber a sharp advance, quite a few lettuce 

 np, muskmelons a general advance, 

 onions a sharp reduction, extra early 

 round peas and second early and main 

 crop peas moderate advances on a ma-
