The retail seed season with soutliern 

 California concerns is belated because of 

 lack of rain. 



Now that the holidays have passed, 

 ■we all will settle down for the new seed 

 selling season. 



The Holland salesmen have gone far- 

 ther west this season than ever before. 

 Several have been clear to the coast. 



JosiAH L. Young, seedsman at Troy, 

 N. Y., filed a petition in bankruptcy De- 

 cember 27; Assets are placed at $17,000. 



If all the reports of floods that have 

 come from France this winter prove half 

 true, the seed growers there have suf- 

 fered severely. 



The California seed growers are not 

 pleased with their start for 1911 crops; 

 absence of normal rains is the principal 

 cause of their anxiety. 



Foe warehouse purchases, Vaujghan's 

 Seed Store, Chicago, has leased the third 

 and fourth floors of the building at the 

 southwest corner of Thirty-fifth and Mor- 

 gan streets. 



On the boat from Hamburg arriving 

 at -New York December 27 there were 

 only five cases of valley pips, but there 

 were sixty-eight cases and 145 bags of 

 seeds, with 550 bags of peas. 



Not a few subscribers save themselves 

 the bother of annual renewal by sending 

 The Review $2, $3, or sometimes $5, in- 

 stead of the dollar-bill that insures fifty- 

 two visits of the paper. 



The season's crop of lily of the valley 

 pips is pretty much all in ; the boat from 

 Hamburg arriving at New York Decem- 

 ber 29 had only two consignments, 141 

 cases for C. F. Meyer and 103 cases for 

 McHutchison & Co. 



The January general magazines carry 

 scarcely any seed advertising. The trade 

 seems to have come pretty unanimously 

 to the conclusion that the orders ob- 

 tained by the use of space at $450 per 

 page cost more than they are worth. 



There appears to be some surplus of 

 tomato. A list to hand January 3 quotes 

 some two dozen sorts in quantities up to 

 300 pounds of Sparks' Earliana. Also 

 heavy quantities of watermelon, lesser 

 quantities of cantaloupe, cucumber, 

 squash, etc. 



In their foreign and colonial whole- 

 sale catalogue, received December 30, 

 Watkins & Simpson, London, do not price 

 peas, but say: "In consequence of the 

 world-wide shortage of peas and many 

 stacks being still unthrashed at time of 

 going to press, it is impossible to fix 

 values except by special quotation."
