Seed Trade 



In the matter of attendance and 

 importance of the subjects discussed 

 the seedsmen's convention ranked 

 well up with any of its predecessors. 

 In the main, the address of President 

 Green, which we published last week, 

 should commend itself to all thought- 

 ful seedsmen, and undoubtedly it will. 

 As to Mr. Green's view that as some 

 legislation affecting the seedsmen is 

 inevitable, it is unwise for the Ameri- 

 can Seed Trade Association to oppose 

 all legislation, but that it would be 

 wiser to co-operate in the framing of a 

 consistent, logical and reasonable bill 

 capable of enforcement and of serving 

 the best interests of the trade, there 

 seems to be very little ground for two 

 opinions, and only those persons who 

 are desirious of using questionable 

 methods in their business will oppose 

 legislation of the character named. 

 While the address of the president was 

 able, it however dealt with the mat- 

 ter at issue from the grass seedsmen's 

 standpoint, rather than from that of 

 th-j general seed merchant, and it 

 seems to be up to some one represent- 

 ing one of the leading seed houses to 

 present their side of the question, and 

 it is t be hoped that the right per- 

 son will ci nit- forward at the proper 

 time.
