S. F. Leonard is expected to return 

 from his European trip September 5. 



The prospect for a crop of sweet corn 

 for seed is fair; the weather has been 

 dry, but corn is now doing well. 



S. B. Dicks, of (hooper, Taber & Co., 

 London, is making his annual tour in the 

 United States, having arrived at New 

 York, August 9. 



A TELEQBAPUit; report states that 

 D 'Alcorn & Sons, of Portsmouth, Va., 

 haVo purchased the entire stock of the 

 American Bulb Co., at Richmond. 



PuRPi-E Top Globe turnip is out of 

 supply. There is an increasing demand 

 for this variety and the seed crop seems 

 to keep getting less right along. 



W. Ati-ee Buepek and his two sons, 

 David and W. Atlee, Jr., have completed 

 a pleasant and profitable European trip 

 and are en route homeward. 



Charles N. Page and wife have re- 

 turned to Des Moines after a trip to 

 the Pacific coast occupying several weeks 

 and combining business and pleasure. 



The vine seed crops have been having 

 a hard time, according to reports. In 

 one section too dry, in another too heavy 

 rain and in several districts too many 

 bugs. 



The middle west is reported to be 

 harvesting a good crop of onion seed. 

 One grower, evidently overlooked to date, 

 says he has over 100 acres doing fairly 

 \\ell. This grower is in Illinois, but not 

 at* Rockford. 



The outlook for onion is good; the 

 crop promises well in practicaUy all the 

 principal growing districts and the little 

 patches here and there will in the aggre- 

 gate count quite some little, for they 

 are good to date. 



The seed trade in general seems to be 

 better than usual for August. Turnip 

 Be«d, beans and winter top onions assist 

 in making the shipments from the whole- 

 sale houses respectable. Market gar- 

 d|BnerB are buying well, hoping that good 

 fall weather will make up for the late, 

 bad spring. Taken altogether, it looks 

 as though the seedsman is being used as 

 well as caa be expected.
