Prune the mailing lists and save 

 printed matter. Huge quantities of 

 seed catalogues are wasted on dead 

 names. 



The receivership of J. Bolgiano & Son, 

 Baltimore, has come at a time when the 

 seed trade was thought to have success- 

 fully passed the point of greatest strain 

 occasioned by falling prices. 



The 1920 crop of giganteums has all 

 gone afloat and it appears that the num- 

 ber of cases shipped out of Yokohama 

 does not exceed half last year's crop. 

 The percentage of bulbs larger than 7 

 to 9 's is only what the chemists call ' ' a 

 trace." Most of the dealers in America 

 are oversold and are notifying their cus- 

 tomers that orders will be filled only in 

 part. 



FmST VAIiEY PIPS ARRIVE. 



The first lily of the valley pips ar- 

 rived at the port of New York Octo- 

 ber 28, more than a month earlier than 

 the first consignments were received 

 from abroad last year. On the steamer 

 Mongolia, which reached New York 

 from Hamburg October 28, were three 

 consignments, as follows:

Last year the first arrivals of valley 

 pips were in early December, coming 

 from Rotterdam. The first shipment on 

 a boat from Hamburg was not until De- 

 cember 16, seven weeks later than the 

 one noted above. 



RECEIVERS FOR BOLGIANO. 



Petition Meets Finn's Assent. 



October 28 the seed house of J. Bol- 

 giano & Son, Baltimore, Md., assented to 

 proceedings in the United States court 

 in that city adjudging the firm bankrupt 

 and placing it in the hands of receivers. 

 Established more than 100 years ago by 

 the great-grandfather of the present 

 head of the firm, Charles J. Bolgiano, 

 this company is one of the best known 

 firms in the trade. 



The receivership, it is hoped, may be 

 merely a temporary one. The receivers 

 appointed by Judge Ross are Waldo 

 Newcomer, president of the National 

 Exchange Bank, and William Ingle, 

 president of the Baltimore Trust Co. 

 They formally took charge of Charles J. 

 Bolgiano 's affairs the morning of Octo- 

 ber 28. The I'eceivers are authorized not 

 only to adjust the indebtedness of the 

 firm, but also to take charge of its seed 

 business at once and report to the court 

 after ten days whether or not its condi- 

 tion will justify a continuance of the
