Maech is living up to its reputation 

 as the mail-order seedsman's best month. 



The wholesale seedsmen in Europe are 

 busier than usual at this date, for they 

 have been behind vnth their work ever 

 since harvest time. 



Cannees as well as seedsmen are find- 

 ing it necessary to pay higher prices to 

 farmers to get them to take contracts 

 for growing corn, peas and tomatoes. 



George B. Kemsen, 54 years of age. 

 and foreman of the packing room of 

 John Lewis Childs, hanged himself 

 March 7. He leaves a widow and sev- 

 eral children. 



Such traction engine plows as are used 

 by D. V. Burrell and other large western 

 seed growers weigh from seven to twenty 

 tons, range from twenty to fifty horse- 

 power, cost from $1,500 to $6,000, and 

 will plow from fifteen to fifty acres a 

 day. 



The Holland bulb growers are won- 

 dering what the next few weeks will 

 reveal in the way of damage resulting 

 from the mild winter and early spring, 

 with the apparently interminable rains. 

 The bulb fields have been soaked to the 

 point of saturation. 



A hearing was held at Washington 

 March 8 on the pure insecticide bill now 

 in the hands of the House Committee on 

 Interstate Commerce, James K. Mann, of 

 Chicago, chairman. There seems to be 

 little opposition to the bill, the leading 

 manufacturers recognizing the import- 

 ance of having a recognized standard of 

 quality. 



The small local catalogue seed houses 

 that have sprung up so numerously the 

 last few years, especially in the tsouth, 

 southwest and west, are growing rapidly. 

 While they probably never will become 

 national, like some of the big pioneer 

 eastern houses, they appear to be mak- 

 ing good use of the rich opportunities 

 that Ue almost at their doors.
