Burpee Doings. 



W. Atlee Burpee and his manager, 

 Howard M. Earl, will leave Philadel- 

 phia on the 23rd inst, on their first 

 inspection trip of the season among 

 the western seed crops. The trip 

 will extend as far as the Pacific coast 

 and will there be more than usually 

 interesting this year, as these gentle- 

 men are keen to see how things are 

 going at their new seed farms at 

 Floradale under the management of 

 our good friend, Edwin Lonsdale. 

 "Floradale" is the name of the ranch 

 as finally adopted by Mr. Burpee. 



At the Fordhook Seed Farms in 

 Pennsylvania the Messrs. Burpee are 

 just commencing the erection of two 

 new greenhouses for testing purposes, 

 etc., each 16x100 — plans and materi- 

 als by the King Construction Co. 



At Sunnybrook, their seed farm in 

 southern New Jersey, a new seed and 

 implement warehouse is in course of 

 erection. 



At Fifth street, Philadelphia, where 

 the farm has its headquarters and 

 seed warehouses, building operations 

 are already under way for the erec- 

 tion of an additional warehouse on 

 the property north of their present 

 mammoth establishment. 



Mr. Burpee and his able staff will 

 certainly have their hands full this 

 year. What with building operations 

 and inspection tours in America and 

 Europe there will be little time for 

 resting up after the strenuous spring 

 season. . 



Mr. Earl reports that despite the 

 cool weather of the past few weeks, 

 plant life at Fordhook is coming along 

 nicely and if the comet's tail does not 

 strike them, thinks the prospects ex- 

 cellent for big crops.
