The S. S. Amerika, from Hamburg, 

 which arrived at New York November 12, 

 brought '^e following consignments of 

 valley pipa: Maltus & Ware, 190 cases; 

 HagemannJ W., & Co., 255 cases; to 

 order, 106 cases. 



The Robinson Seed Co., of Waterloo, 

 Neb., will install a new electric plant, of 

 twenty-five kilowatts power, to be used 

 partly for operating machinery and 

 partly for lighting. The plant will oc- 

 cupy a new cement block building, near 

 the engine house. 



W. Atlee Burpee & Co. recently con- 

 cluded an essay-writing contest, having 

 offered $1,000 split up into fifty-five 

 prizes for the best letters on "Why 

 Burpee's is the largest mail order seed 

 firm in the world." There were several 

 thousand answers, the jury of award 

 ^eing composed of the editors of three 

 farm papers. 



. November 11, at Rocky Ford, Colo., 

 there was another severe snow storm and 

 the temperature dropped to 16 degrees 

 below zero. Most of the crops have -been 

 harvested, but there are a few still- in 

 the pits, which were covered and })ro- 

 tected. Fear is expressed that the severe 

 cold may affect the germination of some 

 of the cucumber crops in that vicinity, 

 also in the vicinity of Ordway, and that 

 it will also affect the germinating quali- 

 ties of the late crops of water melon in 

 Kansas and Oklahoma and the crops of 

 pumpkin and squash in Nebraska that 

 had not been seeded prior to the cold 

 weather and which may make considera- 



gives the 

 largest 

 number 

 and big-
