SUDDEN COLD IN DENMARK. 



Hjalmar Hartmann & Co., the Danish 

 seed growers, who do a large export 

 trade to America, write the Review that 

 ' ' on the night between November 12 and 

 13 we have had a snowstorm of such an 

 extent that according to the meteorolog- 

 ical observation it was unsurpassed in 

 twenty years, and there has been a large 

 desolation in the telegraph and telephone 

 lines, so that we irt three days were not 

 even able to wire to the United States. 

 After the storm we have had severe 

 frosts, and many cabbages and other veg- 

 etables intended for the market were en- 

 tirely spoiled, as the strong winter came 

 so suddenly that preparation was not 

 made to cover the stock. This means a 

 large loss to the inhabitants of Amager, 

 who are growing all kinds of vegetables 

 for the Copenhagen market and for ex- 

 port to Russia, Finland and Germany; 

 also considerable lots of cabbage in- 

 tended for seeds for the American trade 

 were defected by frosts. However, we 

 succeeded in getting the most part of 

 our cabbage planted before the frosts, 

 taking experience of the early frosts in
