men who know crops and market condi-

As a general proposition, seeds should 

 go up in price. Isn't the price of prac- 

 tically every product of the soil at top 

 level t 



E. L. MiLLEE, who for some time was 

 in the seed business at Marysville, Kan., 

 died suddenly of heart disease at Kansas 

 City October 6. He was 55 years of age. 



C. A. King & Co., Toledo, say that 

 "clover seed prices continue to fluctuate 

 with the speculative demand. They will 

 for some weeks. The demand for ship- 

 ment may be limited until after the holi- 

 days. Prices are so much above last sea- 

 son that conservative buyers may wait 

 until they need the seed. Eeceipts are 

 much smaller than last season, but larger 

 than from the short crop of two years 

 ago. This is partly due to the surplus 

 of old seed. Michigan, the third largest 

 producer, appears to have a fair crop; so 

 have Missouri and some of the smaller 

 producers. Ohio and Indiana are very 

 short, but have some old seed." 



THE SITUATION IN SEEDS. 



In general, trade reports show a 

 healthy condition of things. The pea 

 growers are busy milling, hand picking 

 and shipping. If any one has a surplus 

 of anything in seeds he may be consid- 

 ered to be on the right side of the fence. 

 It seems to be easier right now to get 

 orders than it is to be certain about fill- 

 ing them. There may be a few excep- 

 tions, but so few as to make the general 

 proposition safe. It is always a question 

 of price, however, no matter how short 

 anything may be. The trouble always is 

 that the prospective buyer has quoted to 

 sell lower than he ought, and must buy 

 the scarce article at the price that pre- 

 vails when it is plentiful. This is one 

 of the things that no one can help, but, 

 even at that, the fact remains that the 

 outlook is good and there is a chance for 

 a profitable trade all along the line. 



ONION SETS. 



At Chicago onion sets are being 

 housed for winter as rapidly as possible 

 now. The change from the summer 

 weather of the last few weeks to the 

 freedng temperature that came in with

^HY not send it to a concern which buys the bent import d 

 stock regardless of cost? Our Bulbs come from a groT >r 

 who has furnished us good stock year after year. Not a sin^ e 

 complaint was made to us about the quality of our regul r 

 wholesale stock last year. 



Isn't That Worth Considering ? 



MOREOVER YOU WANT TO SAVE MONEY 



The new Tariff Bill established lower duties on nearly all 

 kinds of Bulbs. We have so adjusted prices as to give you the 

 benefit of every cent of the decrease. 



Isn't That an Advantage Worth Talcing ? 



Don't delay. Send your order before the most popular kindi 

 are sold out. Mention the Review when you write.
