Call and see it growing in the field. CHARLES POMMERT, Amelia, Ohio to regulate its offers—through the American Seed Trade Association per- haps—so that a minimum might be fixed, is a problem that body's execu- tives might consider. It would be neces- sary to avoid a combination in restraint of trade liable to government prosecu- tion. On the other hand, it might be possible to obtain, for the seeds sold to the government this year, considerably more money than will be received by the successful bidders among those whose offers were read last Friday. ONION SETS AT CHICAGO. Because the acreage is somewhat re- duced this year it is reassuring to find that the Chicago district will have con- siderably better than an average yield of onion sets. Just what the outturn will be can not, of course, be foretold, as so uncertain a factor as the date of the next good rain will determine quan- tity, but it looks as though the crop might easily be eight bushels per pound of seed. An average crop is figured as six for one and practically every patch is counted on for something better than that this year. A soaking rain within the next few days would add a good many thousand bushels to the total yield of the district by causing the sets to bottom out well; it would improve the quality while adding to the quantity. But to be of value the rain must come soon; the crop is nearly made. Harvest- ing the early sets will begin within the week.
