QUESTION BOX. 



How does the new meeting date suit the 

 members? 



Is it time to restrict our membership along 

 the lines of the national association? 



What is the proper number of each grade of 

 trees to tie in a bunch, and cannot the bunching 

 be standardized? 



Suggestions as to change in date of meeting 

 of the American Association so that it does 

 not conflict with the American Seed Trade As- 

 sociation. 



Has any member used the new collection 

 bureau of the American Association, and with 

 what results? 



Are tho uniform trade terms adopted at our 

 last meeting being generally used by the 

 members? 



PITTSBURGH, PA. 



The Market. 



During the first week of the new year 

 business was good and, as stock short- 

 ened in supply, there was a clean-up 

 every day, on everything except Beau- 

 ties. Tulips, narcissi and freesias are 

 more prominent, and these, with valley, 

 mignonette, calendulas and stevias, con- 

 stitute a variety that seems to stimu- 

 late trade to a certain extent. There 

 are some fine sweet peas and snapdrag- 

 ons, which find a ready sale. After the 

 holidays violets do not seem to be in 

 much favor.
