the line of field seeds, and says that 

 with a larger capital, and if he were 

 not a little tired after his many years 

 of labor — he could very greatly in- 

 crease the volume of business he does 

 annually. The foundation he has laid 

 is broad and strong enough to quad- 

 ruple the very extensive business he 

 now has, which we believe amounts 

 to several hundred thousand dollars a 

 year. Mr. Saul has no immediate suc- 

 cessor in view, and as he will some 

 ■day wish to retire, here seems to be 

 an opportunity for an individual or 

 corporation to secure one of the finest 

 seed enterprises in the Empire State, 

 but we hope Mr. Saul will continue for 

 a long time yet. 



New York Seed Notes. 



Otto Heineclten has moved his office 

 from the 28th to the 17th floor of the 

 Whitehall Building, 17 Battery Place, 

 New York. Room number is 1736. 



Burnett Bros, report an extraordi- 

 narily large call for lawn grass seeds 

 ithis spring. Sales of roses have been 

 ■very large, also of rhubarb and other 

 "vegetable garden plants. 



A very heavy mail and express trade 

 has been experienced at Peter Hender- 

 son & Co.'s store but counter trade has 

 teen disappointing thus far. The 

 tardy .spring is undoubtedly responsi- 

 tjle for the light counter trade reported 

 -by all the city seed houses.
