There is agitation for a pure seed bill 

 in Texas. 



Carrot is one of the best crops of the 

 season in the Santa Clara valley. 



The Ohio Valley Seed Co., Evansville, 

 Ind., is getting bids for the erection of a 

 new brick warehouse. 



The California growers are in the 

 midst of the harvest. In general the 

 yield is light, notably so in sweet peas. 



It is reported that the Lake Shore Seed 

 Co. and the Dunkirk Seed Co. have 

 amalgamated and will erect a warehouse 

 45x100 at Welland, Ont. 



The Marshalltown Seed Co., Marshall- 

 town, la., has been incorporated with 

 $10,000 capital, by T. C. Cartwright, 

 Fred S. Hynds and F. G. Pierce. 



The seed business of E. M. Oglesby, 

 Bartow, Fla., recently purchased by Dr. 

 E. E. Conant, will hereafter be conducted 

 under the name of the Florida Seed Co. 



EvERETTE R. Peacock, formerly with 

 the Leonard Seed Co., has set up for him- 

 self at Chicago, dealing in onion sets as 

 the Everette R. Peacock Seed Co., not in- 

 coporated. 



Not only are the sweet pea crops in 

 California extremely disappointing this 

 year, but the yield on radish also is far 

 below par. On these items prices are due 

 for a boost. 



The Superior Seed Co., Sacramento, 

 Cal., has been incorporated with $10,000 

 authorized capital, by W. C. Born, George 

 J. Born and L. P. Driesbach, who are 

 the directors. 



Now that Congress has adjourned, W. 

 Atlee Burpee will be able to start his 

 1913 Farm Annual. For the last two 

 months practically all his thought and 

 time have been given to his work as 

 chairman of the Seed Trade Association's 

 committee on postal affairs. 



Apparently the Harrisii bulbs are 

 about all in. The boat from Bermuda 

 that reached New York August 21 

 brought only a dozen cases, eleven con- 

 signed to L. D. Crossmond & Co. and one 

 to Wells Fargo & Co., making total ar- 

 rivals to date only 2,760 cases. 



The William Galloway Co., Waterloo, 

 la., has purchased a tract of five acres 

 which adjoins the Galloway property on 

 the west, and work will be started at 

 once on a three-story cement structure, to 

 be used for a seed storehouse by the 

 Galloway Bros. Bowman Seed Co. The 

 improvement is estimated to cost be- 

 • tween $10,000 and $15,000. 



The Champaign Seed Co., Champaign, 

 111., which has been in business here a 

 year, has met with success in both the 

 retail and the wholesale departments. >A 

 corporation has been formed with 

 $10,000 capital, by Geo. B. Ransom, 

 .Mary B. Ransom and B. C. Heyness, and 

 a store and warehouse 22x100 feet, two 

 stories and a basement, will be ready 

 for occupancy early in November.
