 still remain to be proved. Bee. 



ENGLISH S^EET PEA SEED. 



The last hopes of the sweet pea seed 

 growers in England for even an average 

 crop are dying, I might say, are quite 

 dead. It was hoped that in September 

 the position lost in preceding months 

 through bad weather would be retrieved, 

 but cold and wet has prevailed until 

 now, and short crops are inevitable. Nov- 

 elties, which several growers intended to 

 introduce, will be held back on account 

 of the shortage. Bee. 



COMMERCE IN SEEDS. 



According to the statisticians of the 

 U. S. Treasury Department, the exports 

 of seeds in July of this year were 

 scarcely more than ten per cent of what 

 they were in 1908. The figures are: 



1908 $469,288 



1909 58,158 



On the other hand, the imports of seeds 



in July, 1909, were practically double 



those of July, 1908. The figures are: 



1908 $333,937 



1009 625,459 



IMPORTS. 



The imports of seed through the port 

 of New York for the week ending Sep- 

 tember 18 were as follows:

GERMAN GRASS SEED. 



Although the harvest is late this year, 

 the big German g^ass seed exporters 

 have issued their usual September crop 

 reports. Several of these houses issue 

 reports printed in English, because of 

 their many customers in England and 

 the United States. These reports indi- 

 cate that the same conditions which have 

 operated against satisfactory crops of 

 garden and flower seeds, have prevailed 

 in the German grass seed districts. The
