noted that it applies immediately to the 

 potato wart. 



Eeports from Germany indicate a 

 good crop of spinach. 



The Harrisii bulbs now coming in ap- 

 pear to be of excellent quality. 



Lester L. Morse, of C. C. Morse & Co., 

 went to Europe after the seed trade con- 

 vention at Chicago. 



French Eoman hyacinths are an un- 

 doubted short crop in the larger sizes, 

 but the demand is not what it once was. 



The first shipment of French bulbs for 

 the 1912 season arrived at New York 

 July 22 and consisted of 180 cases for a 

 single consignee. 



Vivian L. Outerbridge, of Henry & 

 Lee, bulb importers, recently was elected 

 captain of Company D, Twenty-third 

 regiment New York National Guard. 



Howard M. Earl, of W. Atlee Burpee 

 & Co., sailed from Glasgow July 27 after 

 a trip of two months, during which he 

 visited all the principal seed centers in 

 Europe. 



Weather conditions in the older pea 

 districts have been favorable for a fort- 

 night or more and there has been consid- 

 erable improvement in the prospect for a 

 crop for seed. 



Without doubt sweet pea seed will be 

 scarce this season. It should result in 

 putting prices where the article will be 

 treated with respect by the general run 

 of seed merchants. 



The brassica family will not be in the 

 plebeian ranks next season, if one may 

 judge from the reports received by Eu- 

 ropean growers of good repute, who say 

 they are offered much more business 

 than they dare accept. 



The Gurney Seed & Nursery Co., of 

 Yankton, S. D., has filed with the state 

 railway commission a complaint against 

 the Chicago, Milwaukee & Puget Sound 

 railway, stating that the railway com- 

 pany charged an excessive rate on cer- 

 tain recent shipments of seed. 



The Portland Seed Co., of Portland, 

 Ore., has completed the plans for its 

 new five-story warehouse, which will be 

 built on East Alder street, between East 

 First and East Second streets. The 

 structure will cover a quarter block and 

 will cost about $60,000. 



The United States Seed Co., which has 

 its headquarters at Memphis, Tenn., un- 

 der the management of W. E. Young, 

 formerly of the Plant Seed Co., St. Louis, 

 has a branch house at San Antonio, Tex. 

 Field seeds are specialized in, although 

 garden and flower seeds also are handled.
