It is high time the catalogue was on 

 the press. 



The German seeds are coming forward 

 much earlier than last year — but Ger- 

 many had only fair crops. 



The J. Steckler Seed Co., New Or- 

 leans, is now in the forty-fifth year of 

 the business, which was founded by Rich- 

 ard Frotscher. 



There are quite a few seed houses that 

 would like to branch out if only they 

 could find capable people to put in charge 

 of the departments. 



The prospect for holly is not favor- 

 able. There will, of course, be some 

 first-class stock, but the quantity of the 

 best grade appears to be steadily dimin- 

 ishing. 



The U. S. Department of Agriculture 

 has begun its 1911 distribution of con- 

 gressional free seeds, the southern states 

 having received allotments as early as 

 November 15. 



It seems likely that bouquet green has 

 passed as the great staple Christmas 

 decoration. Unless new sources of supply 

 are developed the quantity coming to mar- 

 ket will diminish from year to year. 



The last boat from Hamburg brought 

 1,454 bags of grass seeds and 446 bags 

 of clover seeds, all consigned ' * to order, ' * 

 which looks like a way of not divulging 

 all one's business to the government and 

 others who have access to the customs 

 house records. 



With seeds in season, plants in spring, 

 insecticides in early summer, florists' 

 bulbs in August, Dutch bulbs later and 

 greens for the holidays, a good many 

 seedsmen now manage to operate the busi- 

 ness on the plan of the continuous per- 

 formance, with frequent change of head- 

 liner. 



The seed trade is represented by 

 George S. Green, of the Illinois Seed 

 Co., and Charles D. Boyles, of the Albert 

 Dickinson Co., on the committee of the 

 Council of North American Grain Ex- 

 changes, which seeks to secure an improve- 

 ment in seed and an increased yield i)er 

 acre of the important cereals.
