Parslet is said to be possibly the 

 shortest seed crop in Europe this season. 



The Lennon Co., dealing in seeds, has 

 removed from San Jose to Lompoc, Cal. 



Pea prospects are painted in the dark- 

 est of colors, but things seldom are as 

 bad as they seem. 



Maurice Fuld, formerly manager for 

 W. W. Rawson & Co., Boston, has 

 joined the forces of the Henry F. 

 Michell Co., Philadelphia. 



While W. Atlee Burpee was in Cali- 

 fornia recently he decided to name his 

 next sweet pea novelty Florence Night- 

 ingale. Its color is lavender. 



J. Charles McCullough has been en- 

 gaged since June on the work for the 

 floricultural embellishment of the Ohio 

 Valley Exposition, which opened August 

 29 at Cincinnati. 



A. A. Berry, Clarinda, la., says the 

 timothy crep is the shortest in the history 

 of that part of the state; onion set 

 crops good; fall wheat excellent; corn 

 fine; trade extremely active. 



Last year's bulb season beat all rec- 

 ords and there is no reason to expect 

 any decrease in the demand this fall; 

 things horticultural don't work that way 

 in this country. 



A Michigan seedsman who is a large 

 operator in peas and beans is reported 

 to have said that in the aggregate his 

 1910 harvest may give him possibly just 

 a little better than two peas for each 

 pea planted. 



W. W. Barnard Co., Chicago, is build- 

 ing a warehouse 40x150 and two stories 

 high at Reeseville, Wis., for the purpose 

 of cleaning and picking the crop of peas 

 grown in that section. The company has 

 grown peas in the Reeseville district for 

 several years, but has handled the crop 

 at Sturgeon Bay, where John B. Davis is 

 its representative, but now sees economy 

 in fitting the crop for market near where 

 it is grown. As to the crop in the Stur- 

 geon Bay section, no deliveries have yet 

 been received but field estimates indicate 

 possibly twenty-five per cent of an aver- 

 age yiel^

Otto Schwill & Co., Memphis, are 

 completing one of the most modern seed 

 warehouses in the country. The equip- 

 ment is thoroughly up-to-date in every 

 particular and the building has trackage 

 facilities. 



The Binding-Stevens Co., of Muskogee, 

 Okla., has been incorporated with $75,000 

 capital stock. The officers are: Presi- 

 dent, W. J. Stevens, Wichita, Kan.; vice- 

 president, C. Binding, Muskogee, Okla.; 

 .secretary and treasurer, J. W. Binding, 

 Tulsa, Okla.; assistant secretary, L, Orth, 

 Tulsa, Okla. The business is two years 

 old. Stores are conducted at Tulsa and 

 Muskogee and the latter is shortly to 

 be removed to a much larger building. 

 Prospects are thought to warrant the in- 

 vestment of new capital in pushing into 

 all lines of the seed trade. 



THE WOELD'S SEED SITUATION. 



' ' Seedsmen of future generations will 

 recognize, and base their operations on, 

 the fact that seasons come in cycles," 

 said E. J. Deal, general manager of 

 W. W. Johnson & Son, Ltd., Boston, 

 England, in an interview at the Grand 

 Pacific hotel, Chicago, the other day. 

 "Also," he added, "it is my convic- 

 tion that, even if we are approaching 

 the close of the present cycle, it will 

 take us at least five years to get back 

 to a normal basis in the seed business. 



"As to the present values of seeds, no
