contract, with none in sight. Mr. Wood 

 is summering in the Canadian woods, at 

 Muskoka lake. 



The Botzum Bros. Co. seed store, of 

 Cleveland, is, with many others, won- 

 dering if the Holland and French bulbs 

 will arrive. In instances where the 

 French buli)s were not ordered in com- 

 bination witli tlie Uutcli, most have ar- 

 ,rived and are of good quality. 



G. Johnson, of Johnson's Seed Store, 

 Cleveland, is visiting the concern's seed 

 farms in Micliigan, leaving the business 

 in the al)le care of Junior Johnson. 



A. C. Kendel's store at Cleveland has 

 ])asse(l tlirough a veritable whirlwind, 

 in the words of Manager Bailey, who 

 added that they are already contemplat- 

 ing the transfer to the splendid new 

 building, to be ready a year hence. Com- 

 menting on the criticism made in a 

 trade journal regarding jjuldicity, it was 

 observed that, as seeds are a necessity 

 and flowers a luxury, it followed that 

 different courses must be taken in that 

 respect. Mr. Kendel is taking a short 

 rest. As secretary he reports that the 

 American Seed Trade Association is in 

 a prosperous condition. 



Manager Manley, of the Harvey Seed 

 Co., Buffalo, N. Y., observed that they 

 were all "uj) in the air" as regards the 

 seed situation for the coming year. 

 "We have just released several bushels 

 of black wax beans at $1 per l)ushel," 

 said he, "presumably for packeting, but 

 we shall hold on to all we have teft, as 

 it looks as thougli the new stock will be 

 scarce. The supply from our home 

 state will hardly cut any figure. ' ' There 

 is a brisk demand for seeds of all kinds 

 for fall sowing. 



The Tlieilmann Seed Co., of Erie, Pa., 

 has done a big business and re{)orts a 

 good supply of locally grown cereals, 

 l)ut prices are exjiected to remain firm. 

 The market gardening trade is imj)rov- 

 ing. Good prices are obtained for 

 crop.s, despite tiie successful war gar- 

 dens. W. M.

Snapdragon Seed 



It is a proved fact that, for profit and easy 

 doing, there is no greenhouse plant that will 

 equal good Snapdragon. They reauire very lit- 

 tle attention and seed sown now will yield con- 

 tinuous blooms from February until July, 

 giving a bumper crop at Memorial, the great 

 special flower day. 



Start some seedlings today and be ready to 

 fill all empty space after mums are done. It is 

 far better and cheaper to grow your own plants.
