AXEBIOAV SEED TRADT ABSOOIATION 

 PNBldMt, H. O. Hastton. Atlanta, Qa.j 

 MtaiT-trearanr, 0. B. Kendel. OUvaland, O. 



F. P. Lilly, of tlie Chas. II. Lilly Co., 

 Seattle, Wash., appeared before the house 

 committee on ways and means January 

 25 to urge a high protective tariff on 

 importations of seeds and bulbs. 



Canners are not keen to plant, peas 

 of their own growing; they prefer to 

 sell, if they can, seeds of their own pro- 

 duction and to plant stock obtained 

 from seed growers of established repu- 

 tation. 



Known already for his splendid strains 

 of asters, J. K. Rugowski, Manitowoc, 

 Wis., has under his watchful care several 

 notable things in gladioli. He plans to 

 work further before making announce- 

 ment regarding them. 



January business with the mail-order 

 seed houses has not been in volume any- 

 thing to raise high hojtes. The number of 

 orders and the average size has liecn, with 

 most houses, slightly ahead of last year, 

 but not more than would be the result 

 of the open weather this January. 



From present indications the Califor- 

 nia crops of bulbs will be short this year, 

 states H. A. Hyde, of the H. A. Hyde 

 Co., Watsonville, Cal. "The reason for 

 the shortage is the extraordinary winter 

 we have been having, ' ' he says. ' ' Con- 

 tinuous heavy rains have kept the ground 

 cold and wet, with the result that much of 

 the stock planted in the heavier soils has 

 shown little growth during the last few 

 months. ' ' 



BALTIMORE BANKRUPTCY CASE. 



To the creditors of J. Bolgiano & 

 Son, Baltimore, Md., notices have been 

 sent for their election of receiving 

 either tlie amount of their claim in 

 stock in a new corporation to be formed 

 or about forty per cent of each one's 

 claim in cash. The trustees are urging 

 the creditors of this firm to accept the 

 stock in the new corporation as being 

 the most favorable way of settlement. 

 Creditors are asked to mail replies to 

 William Ingle, care of the Baltimore 

 Trust Co., 25 East Baltimore street, Bal- 

 timore, Md. 



It is not the present intention of 

 the creditors who are to organize and 

 manage the new corporation to continue 

 indefinitely in the business. The pri- 

 mary object is to obtain sufficient time 

 for the continued running of the busi- 

 ness in order to liquidate the assets to 

 the best advantage. It is believed that 

 within six months, or at any rate in 

 less than a year, the bulk of the assets 

 will have been converted into cash. It 

 is proposed, however, from time to time, 

 as cash assets may be available, to 

 make a cash dividend or distribution 

 from the assets to the common stock- 

 holders. It does not seem unreasonable, 

 according to the trustees, to expect that 

 within six months cash dividends will 

 have been paid to the stockholders of 

 the new corporation from the assets, to^ 

 the amount of about thirty per cent.' 

 When this has been done it is hoped 

 that it will be possible to sell the shares 

 of stock to outside parties who will 

 then take over and permanently run 

 the business. The voting trust agree- 

 ment, under which all the common stock
