iiitl was late, owinjj to the season, es- 

 jtecially so for sweet corn. The onion 

 seed acreage is light, due to the scarcity 

 of bulbs. We are greatly in need of 

 dry weather, with bright sunshine; only 

 one dry week since July 1. Good grow- 

 ing conditions, however, have j)revailed 

 and growth is normal for the season. 

 We need more favorable weather for 

 rijiening and harvest. 



' ' Not much is produced here that is 

 to be directly affected by Kuropean 

 war conditions, yet while one man's 

 guess is as good as another 's as to 

 the future, it is already apj)arent that 

 the shutting off of the products of the 

 large seed j)roducing sections of the 

 world will have not only an immediate 

 but a far-reaching effect on values." 



"The seed crops in Connecticut i)roni- 

 ise well," said PVank V. Woodruff, at 

 Orange. "The harvest of kale and early 

 turnip is completed and they yielded 

 all that could be expected. The weath- 

 er was somewhat bad during harvest 

 time, which delayed the deliveries to 

 a certain extent, but most crojjs are 

 now ready for delivery. Beets and on- 

 ions are looking unusually well and, 

 while the acreage is somewhat smaller 

 than it was last year, the crop will be 

 much larger in the aggregate. Sweet 

 corn acreage is much larger than last 

 yeai*, and the crop is in splendid condi- 

 tion, many fields already in an edible 

 state, which is one to two weeks earlier 

 than last season. 



"The demand for American grown 

 seed was never better than at present, ' ' 

 continued Mr. Woodruff. "Owing to 

 the war talk from abroad, it is doubt- 

 ful if much or any seed will be coming 

 over' from that side. Those who have 



All Seeds and Bulbs sold 

 by Thorbum are always of 

 the very highest quality 

 and true to name.
