Erfdrt, Geemany, July 24.—The pansy seed crop appears to turn out very short on account of the unfavorable weather last spring and the early part of summer. Holland bulbs are reported a good average crop this year. The late spring, however, has delayed maturity and delivery will be from eight to ten days later than usual in consequence. Onion seed of some kinds is short in California crops, while in other fields the same sorts have done much better. On the whole there will probably be enough to go around. Onion bulbs for next year's seeding are stiflf in price. Boston, Mass.—A meeting of the seed trade of this city was held at the office of W. W. Rawson & Co., on August 2, to take action on the death of C. H. B. Breck. Resolutions were adopted and arrangements for a full representation of the trade at the funeral were made. Qubdlinburg, Germany, July 25.— The crop of pansy seeds is short up to the present on account of the cold, wet spring, which retarded growth. Sweet peas are very promising now, so that a good crop may safely be expected. The prospects on the whole for a good flower and vegetable seed crop are not bad. The weather from the beginning of July was very favorable. In the case of such plants as wallflowers and myosotis, the yield will be very short. The rutabaga and tnmip seed crops are also likely to be short. Pepper's Prolific Tomato. One mile from the railroad station at Jenk
