The sudden death of Herman J. Sim- mers, of Toronto, is reported in this week's obituary column. During 1917 a total of 186,008,000 bulbs and roots were shipped to the Unit- ed States from Rotterdam, valued at $1,- 690,466. In 1918 the figures shrank to 81,063,000 and $1,072,680. Those who can pay for French bulbs or other imports in money of the country of origin profit by the unprecedentedly low rates of exchange, but all recent deal- ings have been on the basis of American dollars. Jobbers of lily bulbs report that can cellation of orders are numerous, both for giganteum and Formosa bulbs. Prices unquestionably are high, but the supply of bulbs is so small that there seems to be no special risk in buying them. The new Milwaukee-Irving State Bank, Chicago, opened October 15. Everette R. Peacock is president, making two onion set growers at the head of Chicago finan- cial institutions. Joseph J. Budlong is president of the Lakeview Trust & Sav- ings Bank. How important is the export of bulbs to the United States from Rotterdam is indicated by consular figures that their value was nearly half of the total exports from that place to this country in 1917 and in 1918 amounted to approximately three-fourths of total shipments. How much the war reduced France's ex- ports of seeds is shown by comparative figures in metric quintals (quintal = pounds) covering the first half of the year, 126,649 in 191;{; 274,803 in 1914; 129,618 in 1915; 173,738 in 1916; 90,130 in 1917; 57,325 in 1918 and 4fi 309 in 1919.
