in the Canary Islands from whom Ber- 

 muda onion seed is procured. The obit- 

 uary column this week contains the an- 

 nouncement. 



From Welland, Ont., comes tlie report 

 that A'aughan & Son have bought a site 

 and will erect a seed cleaning plant. 



One canner is of the opinion that the 

 canning industry uses more seeds in its 

 special lines than do all the market gar- 

 deners. 



The cauners' convention last week did 

 a great deal to show up the exact situa- 

 tion on certain lines of seeds largely used 

 by canners. 



The mail trade is gathering volume in 

 spite of unfavorable weather, particularly 

 in the southeast, where the cold last week 

 was extreme.

Frank L. Longley is opening a new 

 seed and feed store at First and Kent 

 streets, Radford, Va. He formerly was 

 with the Jordan Seed and Fertilizer Co. 



There is considerable apprehension as 

 to the results of the floods in California. 

 There are few details available and the 

 very nieagerness of the news may give 

 rise to the assumption that the seed 

 crops are in a bad way. The produce 

 trade hears of very high water and much 

 loss of crops on the islands of the Sacra- 

 mento. 



At the canners' convention at Louis- 

 ville last week the Leonard Seed Co., Chi- 

 cago, showed over 150 samples of peas, 

 tomatoes, corn, etc. Jerome B. Rice Seed 

 Co., S. D. Woodruff & Sons, Everett B. 

 Clark Seed Co., and the Livingston Seed 

 Co. each made attractive showings and 

 everyone seemed to be talking business, 

 even those who had no displays. It was 

 generally considered the best convention 

 the canners have yet had.

The high prices now prevailing in pro- 

 duce markets will have its effect on the 

 season 's seed demand. 



The seed advertising in February mag- 

 azines was light and March issues will 

 have even less. Most seedsmen are now 

 putting most of their money into th« 

 farm papers and the gardening maga- 

 zines.

 of New York for the week ending Janu- 

 ary 30 were as follows:
