JAMES VICK'S SONS, Rochester N. Y. The Flower City 



clines of more than a year ago. It 

 should also be kept in mind that the 

 overproduction culminating in certain 

 large crops in 1919 has not been con- 

 tinued in 1920, but that, on the con- 

 trary, present harvests of seeds are com- 

 paratively small. Moreover, surplus 

 stocks have been largely reduced. There- 

 fore, since the supply has decreased and 

 will continue to decrease relatively to 

 demand, the tendency from now on must 

 be toward higher rather than lower 

 prices. Seedsmen will be constrained to 

 consider replacement costs rather than 

 the bargain prices that were fixed in 

 1919 and 1920 by the need to dispose at 

 once of articles more or less perishable. 



"In view also of increased fixed 

 charges, such as freight rates, printing, 

 coal, etc., we look forward to advances 

 rather than to declines in the values of 

 which the league's circular is an ap- 

 praisal. We urge members to be sure 

 of their ability to replace stocks before 

 sacrificing present holdings. 



"Furthermore, we suggest unusual 

 caution in making purchases, in order to 

 avoid certain surpluses of inferior qual- 

 ity or low germination."
