For the next two weeks seeds will be 

 a secondary consideration with a good

 to the fore.

 his firm to the Montana pea growing

 ber. 



The market for bouquet green at Chi- 

 cago at the opening of this week was 

 $7.50 to $8 bid, offered at $9; little busi- 

 ness being done. Some owners of small 

 lots are talking of a $12.50 market, but 

 actions of buyers indicate little green 

 will be needed at a higher figure than the 

 present. There is considerable variation 

 in the quality of the different lots. 



THOSE FINE FREE SEEDS. 



In his annual report as Secretary of 

 Agriculture, made public today, James 

 Wilson says: 



"Seeds and plants were distributed 

 upon congressional order as in former 

 years. Between 600 and 700 tons of 

 vegetable and flower seeds, put up in 

 approximately 60,000,000 packets, were 

 distributed the past season. Of this 

 quantity about ten per cent was flower 

 seed and ninety per cent vegetable seed. 

 Approximately one-third of the total 

 quantity was procured from surplus 

 stocks, and the remainder was grown 

 under contract for the department dur- 

 ing the current season. In every case 

 seed was secured on competitive bids, 

 and no seed was accepted for distribu- 

 tion unless it was found after repeated 

 tests to be of satisfactory purity and 

 vitality. Every lot of seed is tested for 

 germination two or more times before
