I liis year the proportion will be nearer 

 ;iirit estimated by Hugh Aldersey, viz., 



lie twenty-fifth or one-thirtieth. In the 

 "^I'cd growing districts of Essex the sweet 

 ;oa crop is giving growers anxious con- 



.rn. Seed pods on plants on the flat, 

 '.\hicli have not been sticked, are almost a 

 iiiaiik — in many instances the amount of 

 <ood used for stock will not be returned. 

 ' rops which have been sticked are far 

 from satisfactory. The spring was late 



nid cold, frosts continued into June, and 

 li^ht through the summer the tempera- 

 Miro was low, especially at night. This 



I'liilition of affairs, combined with rain 



I I most every other day, except for a fort- 

 night in August, prevented the flowers
