Seed Trade News 



AMEBICAK SEES TRADE ASSOCIATIOIT. 



President, Klrby B. White, Detroit, Mich.: 

 Secretary-Treasurer, 0. E. Kendel, Cleveland, O. 



D. D. P. EoY will open a seed and sup- 

 ply store at Lake Forest, 111., August 1. 



Taking the situation as a whole, the 

 seed crops in California are in first-class 

 shape. 



E. WORRALL OUTERBRIDGE, of Mount 



Pleasant, Shelly Bay, Bermuda, will ar- 

 rive at New York on the Bermudian's 

 next trip for a visit to the trade. 



The Henry Field Seed Co., Shenan- 

 doah, la., recently has been pushing for 

 South American trade and has worked 

 quite a little business in Argentina via 

 parcel post. 



It has not been an especially good sea- 

 son for the growers of freesias and callas 

 on the coast, but there are so many grow- 

 ers now that the usual supply will be 

 forthcoming. 



The obituary column this week contains 

 notice of the death of Walter P. Stokes, 

 of Stokes Seed Farms Co., Morrestown 

 N, J., and an ex-president of the Ameri- 

 can Seed Trade Association. 



Advices from Teneriffe, recently re- 

 ceived by some of the large buyers, do 

 not indicate that there will be any seri- 

 ous shortage in the supply that will be 

 needed in the United States this autumn. 



Holland bulb growers who ordinarily 

 find their principal outlet in England are 

 circularizing the American trade with 

 cut-price offers, especially of hyacinths, 

 and indications are that the market in 

 Holland has been badly demoralized by 

 the embargo of the British. 



Excavation work has been completed 

 on the basement of the $25,000 seed ware- 

 house being erected at Twin Falls, Idaho, 

 by the Courteen Seed Co., North Mil- 

 waukee, Wis. The Courteen Seed Co. 

 heretofore has bought Twin Falls tract 

 products through local agents. 



Trade comment coming from England 

 seems to indicate that no one but the 

 seed stores bemoans, the prohibition of 

 Dutch bulb imports. The trade seems 

 most to deplore the bar put up against 

 Japanese lily bulbs, forcers and retail 

 store men agreeing that there will be noth- 

 ing to take the place of the profit this item 

 has made. 



The will of the late Frank S. Poole, 

 head of the Poole Seed Co., of Tacoma, 

 Wash., who died March 24, recently was 

 filed for probate in the Superior Court 

 by his son, C. L. Poole, who was named 

 executor. The petition sets forth that 

 Mr. Poole left an estate valued at $37,000. 

 $13,000 being in personal property and 

 the remainder in stock of the seed com- 

 pany. The estate is left in trust to the 

 widow. The children of the deceased, 

 named in the will, are Franklin L., Ches- 

 ter A., Mabel G. Poole and Mrs. F. M. 

 Wright. 



TO TEST TENNESSEE LAW. 



By agreement and for the purpose of 

 testing the constitutionality of the pure 

 seed act of Tennessee, McKay, Keece 

 & Co., of Nashville, have been indicted 

 for violation of the law, the true bill
