M. Chawford, of Cuyahoga Falls, O., 

 has been visiting a son at Oak Park, 111., 

 a suburb of CMcago. 



The Aggeler & Musser Seed Co., Los 

 Angeles, Cal., has issued a special circu- 

 lar, "All About Broom Corn," 



The Ewing Seed Co., Nashville, Tenn., 

 is a new concern that is placing contracts 

 for 1910 crops. W. B. Ewing is man- 

 ager. 



According to a leading seedsman, it is 

 not alvpays the early catalogue that 

 catches j,he order; sometimes it is the 

 book that lies on top of the pile. 



The heads of certain flourishing seed 

 houses have found that better results are 

 obtained by concentrating their efforts in 

 a limited territory than by reaching out 

 for the trade of the whole United States. 



George Gibbs, Clearbrook, Wash., re- 

 ports having dug 33,000 young hyacinths 

 grown on an area of only 294 square feet. 

 The bulb growers in the state of Wash- 

 ington have had a wet, mild winter. 

 Frost was all out of the ground February 

 8 and narcissi peeping through the beds. 



The Illinois State Board of Agricul- 

 ture has figured out that the timothy 

 seed crop of the state for the wear 1909 

 was 80,006 bushels, valued at $147,278. 

 The largest crop was in 1877, 483,571 

 bushels, having a value of $604,464, while 

 the most valuable crop was in 1881, with 

 $1,108,980 for 400,124 bushels. 



Neither the month nor the year to 

 date have made any new records in the 

 mail order seed trade; things are about 

 normal. A good many people buy seeds 

 at about a certain date each year, regard- 

 less of weather conditions, so that the 

 cold has not cut down the mail order 

 business to any great extent, but it takes 

 a January thaw to make the orders run 

 above the average.
