SEED TRADE TOPICS. 



Reports from Cleveland indicate that 

 the seed business is opening up well 

 there and gives promise of good trade 

 this spring. 



Peter S. Dooner, 10th and Chestnut 

 streets, well known and popular 

 among the seedsmen and florists of the 

 country as the most unique and genial 

 Boniface in America, has been serious- 

 ly ill since the 26th inst. 



J. D. Eisele, of Dreer's, is under the 

 weather. We extend our sympathy and 

 best wishes for a speedy recovery. 

 One can't go to Europe without having 

 a fine arrearage of work to catch up 

 with on return. And burning midnight 

 oil sometimes has bad consequences. 



The leaden atmosphere of Broad 

 Street Station, Phila., was brightened 

 on .Monday by some of the bright 

 lights of the American Seed Trade As- 

 sociation on their way to Washington. 

 The party was joined in that city by 

 Walter P. Stokes, William Henry 

 Maule and W. Atlee Burpee. Bring- 

 ing up the rear was that redoubtable 

 reformer, Patrick O'Mara of New 

 York. It is understood that the par- 

 ticular dragon requiring attention at 

 present is Freeseeditis, and the seeds- 

 men did well to provide themselves 

 with such a formidable rear guard as 



Nervy Pal rick." as his Philadelphia 

 admirers have been calling him lately.
