have promised nicely up to June 20 

 and that it is always after that date 

 that the deterioration occurs. Our root 

 crops and sweet corn in Connecticut 

 are starting off on fairly favorable con- 

 ditions. It was dry for a time, but the 

 drought has now been relieved, and we 

 see no reason to apprehend other than 

 normal returns, unless of course we 

 wish to borrow trouble, as there is a 

 great deal of time between now and 

 maturity of crop. But we are not dis- 

 posed to look on that side of things, 

 and we think it is fair to say that at 

 this early stage of the game there is 

 no distinctly adverse condition ap- 

 parent. ' ' 



TEN THOUSAND MOBE ORDERS. 



Commenting on the reports of the 

 season's business that appeared in this 

 department of The Eeview for June 5, 

 Henry Field, president of the seed com- 

 pany at Shenandoah, la., that bears his 

 name, said he found much interest in 

 comparing with his own experience. He 

 concurred in the majority report that 

 orders were more numerous than ever 

 before, but that total sales were not so 

 large as in 1912. In part Mr. Field 

 said: 



"We will have about 10,000 more 

 orders this year than we had last year. 

 The volume of business, however, will 

 not be quite so great as last year, owing 

 to the lighter sales on seed corn and

seed potatoes, which last year were 

 very, very heavy and added enormously 

 to the volume of business. 



' ' Our trade this year was heavier in 

 all other lines, but owing to crop con- 

 ditions was lighter on seed corn and 

 seed potatoes. 



"The garden seed business especially 

 showed a big increase this year over 

 last year. 



"The outlook is good for increased 

 business next year. Of course, we can- 

 not tell what the business will be on 

 seed corn and seed potatoes, as that de- 

 pends largely on crop conditions, but 

 on other lines we look for a good in- 

 crease again."

THEIPS ON CUCUMBERS. 



We are sending you herewith some 

 cucumber leaves and wish to ask whether 

 you can tell us what is causing those 

 small spots, which gradually increase 

 in numbers and size until the leaf is 

 covered. The leaf gradually turns yel- 

 low and soon dies. There seem to be 

 some small black specks where the 

 wound is still fresh, as if some small in- 

 sects were eating there. Please inform
