RADISH IN MIOHiaAN. 



Antrim county, Michigan, has been a 

 center for the production of radish 

 seed.. Usually the farmers grow it in 

 small pieces under contract, but occa- 

 sionally one grows a crop on specula- 

 tion. This year, the same as last, there 

 are three seed houses operating in the 

 vicinity of Bellaire: S. M. Isbell & Co., 

 Jackson, Mich.; Leonard Seed Co., Chi- 

 cago, and Jerome B. Kice Seed Co., of* 

 Detroit and Cambridge. The first 

 named has its uspi^l acreage of radish, 

 but the other two have reduced their 

 acreage probably seventy-five per cent. 

 Isbell probably will ship 600 to 700 

 bags of radish seed out of Bellaire. 

 Walter Dewey, a farmer of Bellaire, 

 has about 2,000 pounds of Cincinnati 

 Market that is not contracted. 



The yield on Antrim county farms is 

 about seventy-five per cent of last 

 year's crop. The quality of the seed 

 is extra good this year. 



FBEESIA OSOWEBS ORGANIZE. 



The growers of Freesia Purity in the 

 vicinity of Santa Cruz, Cal., have' 

 formed an organization to be known as 

 the Santa Cruz Freesia Bulb Growers' 

 Association. The officers are: 



President— H. A. Sutton, 38 Edge- 

 wood Way. 



Secretary and Treasurer — R. A. Ca- 

 sad, 261 Kiver street. 



Directors — C. K. Hale, W. W. Ayers 

 and F. S. Severance. 



The association has over 4,000,000 

 bulblets planted and weather condi- 

 tion at present could not be better for 

 them. 



LIBEL THE SANT' ANNA. 



In order to protect their interests 

 the insurance companies involved in 

 the recent fire on the Sant' Anna at its 

 dock in Brooklyn have placed a libel 

 on that vessel. It is estimated the loss 

 approximates $75,000. In the cargo, 

 partly discharged at the time of the 

 fire, were 496 cases of Paper Whites, 

 mostly consigned to Balph M. Ward & 

 Co., and 366 cases of immortelles, 

 mostly consigned to H. Bayersdorfer 

 & Co. 



BULB IMPORTS SLACKEN. 



There has been a perceptible slacken- 

 ing in the hitherto steady stream of 

 Holland bulbs which has been pouring 

 into this country. The receipts of the 

 last week are considerably below those 

 of the previous week. From this it 

 may be assumed that the end is near, 

 although in previous years shipments 

 through the port of New York did not 

 cease until the middle of November. 

 This year, however, the crop was rather 

 early, shipments were made at the first 

 possiole moment, and efforts have been 

 made to get the bulbs out of Holland
