 bulbs continue to arrive, a few cases 

 reaching New York on almost every

Prices for vegetable seeds, while not 

 yet stabilized, are steadying and prob- 

 ably will begin to advance as soon as 

 the trade knows for a certainty what 

 the 1921 supply will be. 



The official roster of James Vick's 

 Sons, Rochester, N. Y., said to be the 

 oldest mail order, house in America, is as 

 follows: President and treasurer, \V. H. 

 Dildine ; viee-])resideiit, H. W. Allen ; sec- 

 retary, H. F. Remington.

 ster Floral Co., Leominster, Mass., is now 

 in New York, in charge of the bulb de- 

 partment of McHutchison & Co.
