There is a pure seed bill before the 

 Nebraska state legislature. 



The belated seed catalogues are by 

 now about all in the mails. 



The Leonard Seed Co. recently has 

 made large additions to its picking ca- 

 pacity at its Chicago headquarters. 



Some of the eastern seed houses are re- 

 ported to be doing more or less night 

 work on orders, thus early in the season. 



Mauldin Bros., Cairo, Ga,, are plan- 

 ning to go into the seed business, han- 

 dling both wholesale and retail branches.

 geon Bay, Wis., has been incorporated,

No one can point to any large stocks 

 of onion sets, but prices for the present 

 are at a point that would indicate the 

 woods are full of sets, and there is little 

 business stirring. 



W. Atlee Burpee contracted a severe 

 cold at Washington, when there with the 

 seed trade interests to protest against the 

 pure seed bill, and has been laid up at 

 Fordhook for a week. 



At Milwaukee last week it developed 

 that some of the canners had bought more 

 peas than they needed. Of these, some 

 turned the speculation themselves, while 

 others let the seedsman turn it. 



Last week's canners' convention was 

 one, at least, where every seedsman at- 

 tending was abundantly satisfied with re- 

 sults. There was all the business any- 

 one cared to book, either spot or future. 



Some city seedsmen think it pays bet- 

 ter to distribute the catalogue by hand 

 in prosperous suburbs, where nearly every 

 resident is likely to be a seed buyer, than 

 it does to scatter the books by mail, far 

 and wide, to addresses of unknown value.

 were hoping for rain, and now for weeks 

 they have been wishing it would let up 

 long enough to let them get caught up 

 with their season's work. 



Michigan had a big crop of beans in 

 1910. Prices are high and there are con- 

 siderable stocks on hand — just how large 

 nobody knows — so that the trade takes 

 widely divergent views of the situation. 

 Some say increasing consumption of 

 beans will hold prices always high in 

 future, while others predict a big break 

 in the market in the next few weeks.
