Cucumber promises to be one of the 

 interesting items this fall. 



The boat from Bermuda last week 

 brought five more cases of bulbs. 



Chris Olsen, seed grower at Odense, 

 Denmark, says the crop of cabbage has 

 been practically a failure this year. 



Charles M. Jackman, of Woking, 

 England, son of the raiser of Clematis 

 Jackmani, is now with W. Atlee Burpee 

 & Co., at their trial grounds and seed 

 farm at Doylestown, Pa. 



The Smith Bros. Seed Co. has beeu 

 incorporated at Auburn, N. Y., with a 

 capital of $40,000. The incorporators 

 are Harry C. Smith, Sanford H. Smith 

 and George H. Smith. 



This year is quite a different year 

 from last year in the matter of lily bulbs, 

 and also valley pips, in cold storage. 

 Whereas last year there was a surplus, 

 this season it was early apparent that 

 there would be a shortage. 



O. S. Jones, of Madison, S. D., says 

 the early frost did little damage in the 

 territory in which his firm operates, ex- 

 cept to late buckwheat and beans. "We 

 will have the best crop of seed we ever 

 had, and about three-quarters of a potato 

 crop," he writes. 



H. W. Fisher, recently with the Texas 

 Seed & Floral Co., Dallas, Tex., and pre- 

 viously manager of the seed department 

 of Montgomery Ward & Co., is again in 

 Chicago and is reported to be promoting 

 the organization of a new mail order seed 

 house, to operate at Chicago. 



S. M. IsBELL & Co., Jackson, Mich., 

 said September 9: "We do not think 

 any great damage has been done, by the 

 early frost, to seed crops in Jackson 

 county. Occasionally some tender vines, 

 such as melons and cucumbers, were 

 touched, but only slightly; not enough to 

 injure the quality or reduce the quantity 

 of seed." 



The stock and fixtures of the Plant- 

 ers' Seed Co., Springfield, Mo., were sold 

 September 10 by John S. Farrington, 

 trustee, to W. H. Ross, of Springfield, 

 who was formerly a stockholder in the 

 concern. The consideration was $2,100. It 

 is reported the liabilities approximate 

 $13,000. Among the assets are book ac- 

 counts of $8,005, appraised at $5,354.

 frost has done no damage in the section
