A Disclaimer Critic. 



H. B. Fullerton, editor of the "Long 

 Island Agronomist," is hot after the 

 seedsmen's disclaimer. On being asked 

 to state why, he sets up a few assump- 

 tions, or straw men as they are called, 

 and then proceeds to annihilate them 

 for a few columns — all of the same 

 very good logic if the starting point 

 were but right. Possibly the only 

 way in which Mr. Fullerton could be 

 brought to a proper frame of mind (it 

 seems to us) would be to have him 

 go into the seed business himself tor 

 a little while and see how the thing 

 works out. If a man buys a horse he 

 doesn't get a guarantee that it will not 

 run away and break a leg inside of a 

 year. Does Mr. Fullerton want an in- 

 surance polidy with every pound of 

 seed? It looks that way! G. C. W.
