It has been wet in the Wisconsin 

 woods, rain and snow, and little bouquet 

 green has been picked lately. 



The government report shows the corn 

 crop for 1911 to average 23.9 bushels 

 per acre, comparing with 27,4 bushels 

 last year and a 10-year average of 26 

 bushels. 



Jacot & Mullen, dealers in seeds, 

 have been incorporated at Moorestown, 

 N. J., with a capital stock of $100,000. 

 The incorporators are: W. Jacot, of 

 New York city; H. W. Doughten and 

 E. A, Gill, of Moorestown. 



Articles of incorporation have been 

 filed at Louisville, Ky., for the Hall Seed 

 Co. Seeds and farm machinery and im- 

 plements will be handled. The vncorpo- 

 rators are E. C. Foltz, F. P. Hall and 

 W. B, Bunton. Capital stock, $50,000. 



Advices from Or^way, Colo., state 

 that the cucumber crops in that vicinity 

 were frozen before they were threshed 

 and were then thawing out and soft, so 

 the growers would not handle them. 

 These conditions will cause a shortage 

 with the parties to whom the cropp^^are 

 contracted, although to what extent'can 

 not be stated.

SCHILDER BROS., 



The Southern Seed Co., of Louisville, 

 Ky., has filed notice that it will cease 

 doing business in Indiana. 



The Holland seeds are being shipped 

 earlier this year than usual and the same 

 is true of seeds from other parts of 

 Europe. Weather conditions, while un- 

 favorable to seed crops, assisted in ripen- 

 ing, harvesting, drying, cleaning, etc. 



The customs authorities still are busy 

 adjusting protests on duty on hyacinth 

 bulbs imported prior to the decision of 

 the test case of Breck vs. United 

 States. A large number of these pro- 

 tests were on the suspended file. Last 

 week the board of appraisers followed 

 the Breck decision in protests of F. L. 

 Eoberts & Co., Boston; H. Water, Phil- 

 adelphia; Wm. Elliott & Sons, New 

 York; American Shipping Co., New 

 York, and two of the International For- 

 warding Co., Chicago.
