hagen, we shall be glad to have your 

 inquiry if you want to buy such seeds 

 from us. ' As it was obvious Germany 

 was endeavoring to ship German seeds 

 through an agent in a neutral country, 

 we communicated with the Board of 

 Trade; the latter has now taken steps 

 in the matter, and we are free to make 

 this statement. The Copenhagen firm 

 referred to bears a distinctly German 

 name, and we therefore warn our read- 

 ers who are in the trade against deal- 

 ings which may put money into the 

 |)ockets of our enemies." 



FIRE DESTROYS FRENCH BULBS. 



Nearly three-quarters of a million 

 Paper Whites were destroyed in New 

 York September 30 as the result of fire 

 on the Sant' Anna. 



The Fabre line steamer arrived from 

 Marseilles September 28 and was wait- 

 ing to discharge cargo at the Bush 

 docks in Brooklyn. In her No. 2 hold 

 were 496 cases of Paper Whites for 

 Ralph M. Ward & Co. and twenty-two 

 oases consigned to Maltus & Ware. The 

 fire started early in the morning and 

 was extinguished shortly before noon, 

 but not until the efforts of two fire- 

 boats had submerged the No. 2 hold. 

 Of the bulbs only a portion were 

 touched by fire, but all were so badly 

 water-soaked that it is doubtful if the 

 insurance people will be able to realize 

 much salvage. Ralph M. Ward & Co. 

 state that their shipment contained 

 604,500 bulbs. 



MONTANA PEA CROPS. 



The pea crops in the comparatively 

 new Montana district are not turning 

 out so well as had been expected. "The 

 dry weather of the early part of the 

 season promised an unusually good sam- 

 ple of seed peas from Montana and 

 Idaho," said William A. Davis, of Boxe- 

 man, "but since September 12 we have 

 had continued wet weather that has 

 done considerable damage to about half 

 the crop, which is still in the field. 

 Damage by frost to seed that is wet 

 and swollen will greatly increase the 

 expense of hand picking. Alaska peas, 

 while a short crop, are generally in good 

 condition. The yield has been much 

 better on Advancer, Horsford and other 

 medium late and late wrinkled varieties, 

 but since there is perhaps not more
