j One of tlie New York bu^ uBpotters 

 says the crop of Formosa bulbs is short 

 OH small sizes and iMig on large bulbs. 

 This is just the opposite of what one 

 would expect. 



It is stated that Isaac Bunting, the 

 LfOndon bulb merckaat, is shipping from 

 his Japan branch lily bulbs to the United 

 States for Vpa Zonneveld Bros. & 

 Philippo, packed in larger cases and of 

 heavier weight. It will be interesting to 

 note bow the bulbs will stand the long 

 journey. Small cases have been thought 

 advisable, owing to the danger of rot if 

 too many bulbs were packed in one case-
