Some of the best liked bedding tulips 

 are pretty well cleaned up. Buyers are 

 looking for Keizerskroon. 



Some of the catalogues will be re- 

 duced this season, in size, in cost and in 

 distribution. With such general seed 

 shortage, it is a year for sailing close to 

 the wind. 



The market on bouquet green is weaken- 

 ing, partly because of open weather and 

 partly because of the reluctance of buy- 

 ers to take hold at the prices hereto- 

 fore asked. 



The tendency appears to be for Eu- 

 ropean seedsmen, nurserymen and bulb 

 growers to arrange for permanent Ameri- 

 can representation rather than to rely 

 for business on the old expedient of an 

 annual trip. 



E. A. KuNZ has purchased an interest 

 in the former Rothenbush fruit and seed 

 store, on High street, Hamilton, O., and 

 the business will hereafter be con- 

 ducted under the name of the Eothen- 

 bush Fruit & Seed Co. 



At Portland, Me., Allen, Sterling & 

 Lothrop have opened a new seed store 

 at 49 Exchange street and 64 Market 

 street. S. Coleman Allen formerly was 

 with Kendall & Whitney, Portland. The 

 new firm plans to do a general seed 

 trade. 



The arrival of November means that 

 t!le catalogue writers must begin to burn 

 the midnight oil. Though some of the 

 houses do not care to mail their books 

 before the middle of January, the ma- 

 jority think it important to begin a 

 month earlier, at least for the southern 

 lists. 



W. H. Geenell, Saginaw, Mich., in a 

 letter dated October 24, denies that he 

 is going out of the seed growing busi- 

 ness even temporarily. "It is true I 

 am selling part of my seed stock and 

 it necessarily follows I cannot do the 

 volume of business I did before, but I 

 am still growing peas." It is said that 

 when Mr. Grenell indicated to his cus- 

 tomers that he would dispose of some of 

 his stock seed, they promptly cleaned 

 him up on the scarce items.
