IOWA SEEDSMEN MEET. 



• The Iowa Seed Dealers' Association 

 held its annual meeting at Des Moines, 

 June 3. Because of the pressure of 

 business, which most seedsmen still feel, 

 the meeting wad cut to one day this 

 year. There was a good attendance and 

 interesting sessions. Following officers 

 were elected : M. Kurtzweil, of the Iowa 

 Seed Co., Des Moines; vice-president, B. 

 H. Adams, of the Adams Seed Store, 

 Decorah; secretary, A. M. Eldridge, of 

 the Henry Field Seed Co., Shenandoah, 

 reelected; treasurer, Hon. John P. Ham- 

 ilton, of the Hamilton Coal & Seed Co., 

 Cedar Eapids, reelected. 



HOSPITAUTIES AT MONTGOMERY. 



As the guests of Greil Bros. Co., of 

 Montgomery, Ala., the visiting seedsmen 

 at last week's convention of the South- 

 ern Seedsmen's Association and a num- 

 ber of invited guests enjoyed a banquet 

 at the Exchange hotel. A number of 

 beautiful vases of sweet peas from the 

 greenhouses of Eosemont Gardens, of 

 Montgomery, graced the tables. Short 

 talks were delivered by M. L. Greil, 

 Terry T. Greil, Frank S. Love, Curtis 

 Nye Smith and others. 



After the banquet a picture of the 

 convention was taken in the assembly 

 room and then the members of the asso- 

 ciation and their friends attended the 

 Grand theater as guests of the Harvey 

 Seed Co. 



President Louis B. Beuter, of New 

 Orleans, La., was presented with a beau- 

 tiful Elks' pin by the members of the 

 association and Secretary Frank S. 

 Love was presented with a handsome 

 Knights of Pythias watch charm. The 

 presentation of both gifts was made in 

 one speech by Dick O'Bannon, of Clare- 

 more, Okla. Both President Eeuter and 

 Secretary Love were taken by surprise. 



The association was organized in 

 May, 1918, in Birmingham, Ala., with 

 less than a dozen members present. The 

 first annual convention of the associa- 

 tion, which came to a close in Mont- 

 gomery May 28, was attended by more 

 than fifty delegates from practically all 

 of the southern states. The new officers, 

 whose election was reported in this 

 column last week, are: President, E. A. 

 Martin, of Jacksonville, Fla.; first vice- 

 president, E. B. Buchanan, of Mem- 

 phis, Tenn.; second vice-president, Dick 

 O'Bannon, of Claremore, Okla.; secre- 

 tary and treasurer, Frank S. Love, of 

 Montgomery. The executive committee 

 is: E. A. Martin, of Jacksonville, Fla.; 

 Frank S. Love, of Montgomery; Dick 

 O'Bannon, of Claremore, Okla.; L. B. 

 Eeuter, of New Orleans, La.; George 

 B. McVay, of Birmingham. The mem-
