T. OuTERBRiDGE, lily grower in Bermu- 

 da, is visiting the trade in eastern cities. 



There should be no trouble over let- 

 tuce next season, unless, indeed, there is 

 too much. 



A SUMMARY of the rules of procedure 

 of the newly-established customs court 

 will be found on page 55 of this issue. 



The Eeichardt & Schulte Co., Houston, 

 Tex., says that taking inventory July 1 

 will be the simplest matter in years — 

 never a closer clean-up than this season. 



Pansy seed sold splendidly last season, 

 and those who bought it have had just 

 as good a demand for the plants, so the 

 prospects are that seed will again sell 

 unusually well. 



The U. S. Department of Agriculture 

 has issued Bulletin No. 392, "Irrigation 

 of Sugar Beets," which will be of in- 

 terest to the seedsmen who find sugar 

 beet seed an important item. 



E. SuHR, Copenhagen, Denmark, is 

 visiting the seed trade as far west as 

 Chicago. For some fifteen years he has 

 grown cabbage and cauliflower seeds for 

 the Danish exporters, and is now begin- 

 ning to export for his own account. This 

 is his first trip to America. 



PEAS IN WISCONSIN. 



At Green Bay, Wis., May 28, E. L. 

 Olmsted, superintendent for the Clark 

 Co., said: 



"Regarding the present condition of 

 the pea crop, will say that peas in this 

 section are in good condition and are 

 making satisfactory growth. The dam- 

 age from the cold spell and storms in 

 April was not as great as we feared 

 it would be, only a small portion of 

 the total acreage showing a thinner 

 stand as the result, so far as we have 

 seen or heard. We have had only a few 

 really warm days since the storm; con- 

 sequently the peas are no farther ad- 

 vanced, on the average, than is usual 

 at this time, in spite of the early 

 spring. There is sufficient moisture 

 and this, with the cool weather, makes 

 favorable conditions for a very good 

 vine growth."

PEAS IN MICHIGAN. 



Writing at Harrisville, Mich., May 

 31, C. B. Pyle, of the Sheap-Johnson 

 Seed Co., said: 



"The condition of peas throughout 

 this section up to one week ago was 

 favorable for a fair crop, the bad 

 weather just after planting time not 

 having done as much damage as had 

 been estimated. For the last week, how- 

 ever, we have been passing through a 

 period of cold and rainy weather, while 

 today the thermometer is hovering 

 around 34 degrees and the danger now 

 of a heavy freeze is giving much con- 

 cern. It is impossible, therefore, at 

 this date to determine just what these 

 conditions will develop, and we prefer 

 to wait before venturing any predic- 

 tions." 



THANKFUL IT ISN'T WORSE. 



That it is a duty to wear a smiling 

 countenance under present conditions, 

 and be thankful they are no worse, is 

 the opinion of Arthur B. Clark, presi- 

 dent of the Everett B. Clark Seed Co. 

 He finds the weather not altogether to 

 the liking of the seed crops, but will be 

 satisfied with immunity from anything 

 less favorable. Writing from Milford, 

 Conn., May 25, Mr. Clark said: 



"The superintendent of our Michigan 

 branch has just reported that through 

 his territory there was a period of 

 weather unfavorable to the crop of 

 peas, along about May 15, with freezing 

 weather at night and cold winds during 

 the day. Peas, however, are better able 

 to withstand such conditions than 

 drought and heat in the later stages of
