March I Si Hfie ^zei^ Umele. hoklers of onion seeds are said to be inclined to shade prices some to move their stock. Joli. M. Byvoet, of Byvoet Bros., Haarlem, Holland, called on the March 3. Mr. B. says he finds tobacco j;rowing in Sumatra is financially much more interesting than bulb growing in Holland. The oE Tr.\dE.—At this date from advices received from twenty-five leading seedsmen and florists of the United States, we summarize the spring trade in seeds and plants for the past four weeks as follows : Rather backward from Feb. 10 to 25, while fully equal to 1S86, to no great extent exceeding that season. vSince Feb. 25 the gain has been more marked, indicating an average increase of 10 to 20 per cent over last year. While this is not the " boom " that some have predicted, it is, nevertheless, a good, healthy growth. The gain for the past ten davs has been such that we need not yet lose hope of a very lively trade as soon as people find the planting season really at hand. JURPLUS 5TOCK. Roses, Geraniums.
