general manager of the William Bahr 

 Sons' Co. and the Cereal Products Co., 

 is vice-president. W. L. Hamilton, who 

 for the last five years has had charge 

 of the seed ease department of the 

 Hamilton Mfg. Co., Tv^ro Eivers, Wis., 

 is secretary and treasurer. The direc- 

 tors are as follows: Charles A. Kunz, 

 F. A. Miller and W. L. Hamilton. 



Branches will be established in Min- 

 nesota, according to the plans of the 

 new president and general manager of 

 the company, who has been with the 

 Madson company for twenty-three 



years. 



Cornelius Madson died a few weeks 

 ago and M. G. Madson is retiring. The 

 firm has been known in the trade for 

 many years as a large contract grower 

 of seed peas and it has been a consider- 

 able factor in the bulk seed business 

 and, more recently, in the commission 

 box trade. 



ONION SEED IN CAUFORNIA. 



The California onion seed crop is af- 

 fected by mildew in some sections, 

 which makes the size of the yield un- 

 certain at this time. As far as can be 

 ascertained, the damage is heaviest in 

 the Santa Clara and San Juan districts 

 and to date the crops of the Sacra- 

 mento delta section are not much af- 

 fected. Spraying has been resorted to 

 in some instances to offset the mildew 

 as much as possible, but it would seem 

 many of the growers are much discour- 

 aged over the present outlook. In view 

 of the developments of the last fort- 

 night, some of the growers have ceased 

 to book contracts until the size of the 

 crop can be judged with some degree 

 of accuracy. M. M.

You .Can Order Dutch Bulbs Now 



and get them, but you won't be able to get them if you wait much 

 longer. Bulbs will be very scarce next fall; if you wait, your share 

 will give some other fellow a great advantage. You'll need 



Hyacinths, Tulips, Narcissi 



for 1919 and you know it. Don't wait until they have gone to others, who are 

 on the job, and then kick about your luck. You can get them now, but later you 

 can't. The supply is very limited. Send your list in or request our list today.
