scarce in this country, and principally 

 as stock seed. 



' ' To summarize, ' ' concluded Mr. 

 Deal, "this is the shortest crop within 

 the memory of the present generation 

 of seedsmen; famine prices will prevail 

 before the end of the season, and the 

 next year or two will present very great 

 (liflSculties in supplying the demand." 



Mr. Deal left England in July, landed 

 at New York, August 5, and is now on 

 a tour of all the principal cities of the 

 States, working northward towards 

 Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Los 

 Angeles, and back cast via the southern 

 route. He starts for home from New 

 York, October 19. 



* ' American seedsmen are a most 

 businesslike set of men; they give one 

 a hospitable welcome, but are far too 

 busy to fritter away time on triviali- 

 ties; they want to do business and do 

 it quickly. They appreciate that many 

 seeds will be unobtainable before many 

 weeks, and the trade visitor is not 

 looked upon as a salesman, but as a 

 possible source of supply on some 

 scarce article — the buyers proceed to 

 go through him without a moment's 

 delay. As to contracts for 1911 crops, 

 there is an eagerness to place contracts 

 that amounts almost to a scramble. 



"One thing this season will prove," 

 concluded Mr. Deal, "and that is to 

 the advantage of the really dependable 

 seedsman and the damnation of the one 

 who cannot resist the temptation of a 

 quick profit, forgetting that his mis- 

 deeds are sure to come home to roost 

 within the twelvemonth. No matter 

 how scarce the seeds, you can't give a 

 customer 'something just as good'
