' ' At present the working up of pedi- 

 gree stocks — raised with infinite pains 

 in this country — is by no means always 

 satisfactory. Those stocks sent to an- 

 other country may or may not be prop- 

 erly attended to, even though the send- 

 ers themselves dispatch skilled men to 

 supervise the roguing. As a result, 

 the seed derived from these stocks is 

 not always as ' true ' as it should be, and 

 that through no fault of our seed trade. 

 Specialized seed-growing stations 

 within the empire, properly staffed, and 

 cooperating with the great seed firma 

 to secure the production and multipli- 

 cation of the best seeds, would be of 

 the greatest benefit to British horti- 

 culture, and should be of no less benefit 

 to the seed industry. The loss of crop 

 from the growing of inferior or untrue 

 varieties is often great, and that loss 

 is almost entirely avoidable. In a 

 better organized empire, the limitations 

 of what can be achieved by the individ- 

 ual and what must depend oil collective 

 action will be recognized. If this rec- 

 ognition were to be applied to the seed 

 industry, it would result in the further 

 specialization of that already complex 

 business. It would put the resources 

 of British science at the disposal of the 

 seedsmen engaged in improving the 

 strains of plants, and it would make 

 provision for the raising of the best 

 strains in the most suitable climates." 



Minneapolis, Minn. — A. Norlander, 

 proprietor of the Minneapolis Nursery, 

 has 200,000 willow sprays for forcing, 

 ranging from twelve inches to five feet 

 in length. He says he can cut from 

 5,000 to 8,000 per week.
