reason. But, as already slated, the 

 control of the system lies, not with 

 the trade papers, but is wholly in the 

 province of the deaJers themselves. 

 We might add that Mr. Winterson's 

 canna advertisement which caused this 

 trouble did not appear in HORTICUL- 

 TURE.— (Ed.) 



No. 48.58 in "Weekly Ckmsular and 

 Trade Reports" states that an Ameri- 

 can consular officer in the Far East 

 reports that a railway company in his 

 district desires to obtain grass seed 

 for making lawns at its various sta- 

 tions and settlements along its entire 

 line. The men in charge do not know 

 just what kind of grass would be most 

 suitable; it is therefore suggested by 

 them that seed men in submitting 

 prices and descriptions bear in mind 

 the climatic conditions of hot, dry 

 summers and long cold winters, to- 

 gether with thin soil full of stones and 

 none too fertile. 



The address of applicant may be ob- 

 tained by writing to the Bureau of 

 Manufactures. Washington, D. C, and 

 mentioning file number.
