LILY BULBS 



OUR MOTTO: "Your doUar's value.' 



Those who know will grow Reburn & Co. lily bulbs, for they are fertilized (the truth without fear or favor), and 

 feeding the bulbs at growing stage positively produces the best results, maturing a healthy, sound bulb; three times 

 rogued and cultivated by the oldest and best experienced growers in Japan.

 are, a fact which eventually this coun-

MOTT-LY GLEANINGS. 



W. C. Bockert, of Allegheny, Pa., 

 oommeuting on the high prices quoted 

 on sweet corn, a jump from $8 to $15 

 per bushel for Stoweirs Kvergreen,_for 

 instance, sees grounds for si)eculation, 

 as much stock has been sold at the 

 lower figure and the retail selling hardly 

 begun. The quality is good and ger- 

 minates close to 100 per cent. There 

 also is considerable dickering in wax 

 and green pod beans. Mr. Beckert has 

 spent the last two winters in South 

 America, noting future prospects there 

 and being, as he says, away from the 

 crowded lanes of travel. Each time 

 the boat lie intended to return on was 

 internally disturbed by a bomb, so he 

 prefers to stay at home on tiie job for 

 the ])resent. 



Walter C. Schell, of Ilarrisburg, Pa., 

 exhibits a prize-winning sample of 

 Potato Irish Cobbler, from which he 

 has sold 500 bushels at $8 per bag of 

 slightly over two bushels. "The high- 

 est price in our experience," observed 

 W. C. Schell, "and, unfortunately, w^e 

 cannot get more of such just now, at 

 anv price. ' ' 



b. Carmichael, of the J. M. McCul- 

 lough's Sons Co., of Cincinnati, O., 

 notes an increasing call for garden seeds 

 and believes that there will be a big 

 boost in planting as soon as the danger 

 of local floods passes. Grass seed is 

 moving well. 



Davis & Fine, Inc., of Wilkes-Barre, 

 Pa., has the largest store in the 

 Wyoming valley devoted to seeds and 

 poultry supplies. ' ' Now, more than ever 

 before, one must be posted on the va- 

 rious ailments and the necessary reme- 

 dies relative to poultry, to make this 

 branch reallv profitable," said Mr. Fine. 



B. E. & J. T. Cokely, of Scranton, 

 Pa., now speak of bushels instead of 

 packets. "Our seed business has 

 grown from a sprout to a full head," 

 observed the hustling Bert Cokely. The 

 supply department is doing steady work. 



G. R. Clark, of Scranton, can readily 

 use a larger store for his old-established 

 seed connection, but he has been at the 

 same location so long that he hates to 

 break away. W. M. 



AMERICAN SUGAR-BEET SEED. 



Sugar-beet seed of good quality and 

 in large quantities must be produced 

 in the United States if the highest de- 

 velopment of the beet sugar industry in 

 this country is to be reached, say plant
