BOLOIANO, Vlce-Pres.: 8. V. Willard, Wethersaeld, Conn., Beo'; and Treas. A jGusT Rhoteet will' return from his European trip September 2. The recent four weeks of hot weather has helped the corn crop everywhere. The Portland Seed Co., Portland, Ore., has increased its capital stock from $10,000 to $25,000. First shipments of Japan longiflorum bulbs arrived August 25, an unusually early date. Bermuda grown longiflorums are very scarce and large sizes of Harrisii are under the demand.

The shortage on large callas is particu- larly noticeable and the prices obtained are in excess of any recent years. The outlook of the Nebraska vine seed crop is by no means encouraging.
