The Florists^ Review 



Jolt 8, 1920 



velopment of the new 1,500-acre farm 

 about twenty-five miles south of At- 

 lanta, which was acquired by the H. G. 

 Hastings Co. in the fall of 1919 and 

 which is historic ground, in that on its 

 acres occurred the last fighting of the 

 Atlanta campaign during the Civil war. 



Mr. Hastings is the first president 

 which the American Seed Trade Asso- 

 ciation has had from what may be 

 termed the lower south. Virginia has 

 twice furnished a president, both times 

 from the organization of T. W. Wood 

 & Sons, Richmond. Mr. Hastings' elec- 

 tion is not only a compliment to him 

 personally, but a recognition of the 

 rapid development of the seed business 

 in the south. 



MOTT-LY GUSANINGS. 



Manager Ernest Chamberlain, of the 

 Lohrman Seed Co., Detroit, Mich., was 

 found pondering over the stock inven- 

 tory ledger. "Never had such a sea- 

 son," he said. "Of course, we looked 

 for an increase in proportion to the 

 population, but our most sanguine ex- 

 pectations were exceeded. For this we 

 give due credit to Henry Ford, who, by 

 his invention of the 'tin lizzie,' sowed 

 the seed that has made our city famous 

 the world over. This is publicity of 

 the most positive kind and we are shar- 

 ing in the general benefit. By a system 

 of cooperation we have been enabled 

 to scatter broadcast the seed that other- 

 wise would have been kept at home. 

 We look for a heavy sale on Dutch 

 bulbs, as a result of the successful tulip 

 show held June 3." 



S. M. labell & Co., Jackson, Mich., 

 experienced an excellent counter seed 

 trade this season. They possess one of 

 the finest seed stores in the state. Man- 

 ager William Luck predicts a good gen- 

 eral harvest, judging from the bulletin 

 submitted by their growers. P. C. 

 Pratt, of the publicity bureau, looks for 

 a plunge into fall advertising by 

 means of catalogues and the local press. 

 Inquiries for bulb prices are being re- 

 ceived somewhat earlier than usual. 



The American Seed Co., Detroit, 

 Mich., looks for a continuation of the 

 low prices for many seed stocks until 

 the old supply has run out completely

Florence, Kan. — The establishment of 

 J. H. Shaw & Son has grown in twelve 

 years from four acres of land, repre- 

 senting an investment of $600, to a 

 place of five liouses, representing an in- 

 vestment of $10,000. 



Monongahela City, Pa. — There is no 

 coal shortage at the range of the I. S. 

 Crall Co., which is located about thirty 

 miles from Pittsbiirgh up the Monon- 

 gahela river, in the coal producing sec- 

 tion of Pennsylvania. The company is 

 mining its own coal on its own property 

 and is now in the midst of housing the 

 winter's supply. A number of florists 

 are similarly situated in this territory.
