unnecessary the protection of the non- 

 warranty clause, at least in its present 

 form. A seedsman recently informed 

 me that seedsmen were at present dis- 

 cussing the advisability of a change, 

 and I believe that with the spirit of 

 harmony already established between 

 these associations, a common basis tor 

 agreement can be reached. 



There are few lines of crop produc- 

 tion where the loss of a crop is so 

 serious as in truck or -vegetable grow- 

 ing. Is it not possible to reorganise 

 the business in some way so that tne 

 desired quality of seeds can be fur- 

 nished to vegetable growers and still 

 eive a legitimate profit to the seeds- 

 men! My judgment is that it can be 

 done, and cooperation on the part oi 

 your committees in order to secure an 

 arrangement satisfactory to all con- 

 cerned is suggested. 



LANOASTEB, PA. 



The Club's Auto Tour. 

 October 19 the members of the lian- 

 easter County Florists' Club visited the 

 greenhouse establishments in the vicin- 

 ity of the city. The weather was wet 

 and unpleasant, yet twenty-two were 



'°The first stop was made at the range 

 of Rudolph Nagel, whose mum houses 

 were found in fine order. Marigold, 

 McNiece, Naomah and Chadwick are 

 the principal varieties grown. Ihe 

 early mums. Golden Glow, Smith s Ad- 

 vance and Unaka, grown in POTtable 

 sash houses, were a successful atid 



. profitable crop. <: *!,« 



At B F. Barr's a number ot tne 

 houses have been rebuUt The stock m 

 general is iU better condition than we 

 have ever wen it at this place. In 

 roses Hoosier Beauty, J. J. L- ™' 

 Ward and Ophelia are principally 

 grown. A bed 4e devoted to Sweet- 

 heart and other miniature roses. Oar- 

 nations and chrysanthemums grown 

 here include all the best commercial va- 

 rieties. Mignonette, calendulas, bud- 

 dleiaa, steviaa, white and yellow mar- 

 guerites and myosotis, all for cutting, 

 are in fine shape. 



The next stop was at the houses of 

 Thos. E. Fries, where stock in general 

 was found in the usual fine condition 



At the houses formerly under the 

 direction of the Wheatland Greenhouse 

 & Aquarium Co., but now under the 

 management of Albert M. Herr and 

 George B. Wilson, carnations are m 

 good condition, with several houses of 

 fine mums. Beds of antirrhinums are 

 most promising. We predict for this 

 establishment a prosperous year. J. Ij. 

 Lockard is in charge. 



A call at Harry A. Schroyer's range 

 was made, where carnations and chrys- 

 anthemums are well grown. Much bulb- 

 ous stock is under way for the early 

 spring and Easter business. 



At Frank L. Kohr's we saw the best 

 sweet peas examined on our trip.
