The Maine seed-potato crop was short 

 in 1908 and prices are advancing. 



Wm. F. Dreer, of Philadelphia, passed 

 through Chicago January 7, en route to 

 his winter home at Santa Barbara, Cal. 



Sluis Seed Store, the new firm at 644 

 West Sixty-third street, Chicago, is pre- 

 paring to go after the market gardeners' 

 maU order trade. 



It is reported that the winter-flowering 

 sweet peas are being largely taken up in 

 Germany, Anton C. Zvolanek having ap- 

 pointed F. C. Heinemann, of Erfurt, as 

 agent. 



The seed department of the German 

 Nurseries, Beatrice, Neb., was established 

 by Carl Sonderegger three years ago and 

 is growing rapidly. The second year's 

 business was double that of the first, 

 while the business for 1908 has been 

 treble that of 1907. A. H. Luck is in 

 charge of this department and says the 

 prospect is good for a stiU larger increase 

 this year. At present 100,000 catalogues 

 advertising the nursery and seed depart- 

 ments are being sent out, 65,000 in 

 English and 35,000 in German. 



The whole country seems to be looking 

 toward Chicago for onion sets, both for 

 present shipment and for the coming 

 year's crop. It appears from reports 

 that this crop can only be grown satis- 

 factorily in that vicinity. It is strange 

 that no enterprising concern at other 

 points that might be just as suitable can 

 be located. The Chicago set growers, 

 however, are not complaining and are 

 doing their best to meet the requirements. 

 From present reports, an increased acre-
