on account of hail and damage by dry 

 weather and jack rabbits. A few of 

 the crops in that locality are late and 

 are now showing good growth and may 

 make good if the frost holds off two or 

 three weeks longer. 



' ' The Rocky Ford crops are generally 

 good and we expect to make full de- 

 liveries of nearly all varieties of cucum- 

 ber and watermelon. We have not yet 

 inspected the Nebraska crop of melon, 

 pumpkin and squash, but look for fair 

 crops, with the exception of the musk- 

 melon, the acreage of which is small, 

 and some of the varieties of pumpkin 

 and squash, which have been destroyed 

 by the cut worms, bugs and dry weather 

 in some localities. We expect to be 

 short the following varieties of vine 

 seeds, viz.: Cucumber, Extra Early, 

 Siberian and West India Gherkin; 

 muskmelon, Extra Early and Large 

 Hackensack, Early Prolific Nutmeg, 

 Osage, Extra Early Green Citron, C«*s- 

 saba Chicago Market, Baltimore Mar- 

 ket, Montreal Market, Princess, Perfec- 

 tion, Long Island Beauty and Shum- 

 way's Giant; pumpkin. Large Striped 

 and Improved White Cashaw, Jonathan, 

 Golden Oblong, Japanese Pie, Mammoth 

 Potiron, King of the Mammoths and 

 Mammoth Tours; squash, Lowe's and 

 Warren's Essex Hybrid, American Tur- 

 ban, Sibley and Faxon; sweet corn. 

 Mammoth Late and Burpee's White 

 Evergreen; flint corn, Compton's Early, 

 King Philip, Early Eight-rowed and 

 Longfellow; field corn. White Cap, Ex- 

 tra Early, Minnesota King, Adams' 

 Extra Early and Adams' Large Early. 

 Other varieties we hope to fill in full, 

 providing the crops are harvested under 

 favorable conditions."
