The sweet pea crop in England is 

 falling short; too hot in July. 



Harry E. Bennett, formerly a trav- 

 eler for D. M. Ferry & Co., Detroit, was 

 found drowned in the Chicago river 

 August 24. 



The new warehouse of A. C. Croft 

 Seed Co., Moulton, la., was destroyed 

 by fire August 18, the loss being nearly 

 $15,000, only partly covered by insurance. 



Reports from the river farms of the 

 Sacramento valley indicate about half a 

 crop from the seed fields there. These 

 include about one thousand acres, nearly 

 all onion. The loss was due to hot winds 

 at the time the onion was in flower, at 

 which time the crop is peculiarly liable 

 to injury. 



The steamer KQcnig Albert arrived at 

 New York Aueu^,17 with 434 cases of 

 French bulbs sni^^ itjuk /Genoa and five 

 cases for Peter Henderson & Co., that 

 came on board at Gibraltar. The con- 

 signments via Genoa were eighty-three 

 !$se,9 f^r Mdltus & Ware and 351 cases 

 dr 'thQ Int^^iiational For^l-ding Co. 

 ' There has been more or less trouble 

 with the shipments of French bulbs this 

 season, but probably the trade should 

 consider itself, on the whole, fortunate, 

 for by August 11 thirty-four cases of 

 cholera had developed at Marseilles, 

 where the bulbs go aboard boat, and 

 shipping was much worse demoralized 

 than at any earlier date. 



The customs authorities have followed 

 Breck vs. United States in deciding a 

 number of protests over the duty as- 

 sessed on hyacinth bulbs before the test 

 case was decided. Among the old pro- 

 tests recently concluded to the advan- 

 tage of the importers were those of 

 Schlegel & Fottler Co., Boston; F. B. 

 Vandegrift & Co., New York; Jackson & 

 Perkins Co., Newark, N. Y. ; W. W. Bar- 

 nard Co., Chicago; John Dunn & Co., 

 Philadelphia; Wm. K. Harris, Philadel- 

 phia; H. H. Berger & Co., New York.
