LOSS TO DANISH AOBIOUXTimE. 



Loechner & Co., who are American 

 representatives of Hjalmar Hartmann 

 & Co., Danish seed growers, report the 

 death of M. L. Mortensen, M. A., the 

 young councilor for cultivation of 

 plants, at his home in Lyngby. ' * Mod- 

 ern Danish agricultural science," the 

 firm says, "has lost one of its best 

 workers by this young man's death. 



M. L. Mortensen. 



In spite of his youth — Mr. Mortensen 

 was only about 30 years old — his work 

 had attracted the greatest attention 

 and be was looked upon with the high- 

 est expectations. At his death he was 

 councilor at the plant pathological ex- 

 perimental department of the Cooper- 

 ating Danish Agricultural Societies and 

 during recent times he had especially 

 occupied himself with certain diseases 

 in cereals, caused by attacks of mucous 

 fungus. On this topic he gave a lec- 

 ture about a year ago, in the Agricul- 

 tural Society, which created the great- 

 est sensation." 



MILD WINTEB IN HOLLAND. 



The Horticultural Trade Journal 

 (English) had, in its issue of January

 in the Holland bulb fields:

 new one, the bulb grower likes to see 

 his fields covered up by snow, as the 

 most natural and most desirable of all 

 frost protections. Not so, however, 

 this time, and it appears as if the 

 summer record of extreme heat is also 

 going to be followed by a record ab- 

 normal winter, and there is no saying 

 what consequences this may lead to. 

 As it is, many growers have been com- 

 pelled to remove part of the winter 

 covering, and the first week in January
