The Southeni Seedsmen's Association 

 ■will meet at Memphis, Tenn., June 20 and 

 21. 



Charles Guelph, of the Jerome B. 

 Eice Seed Co., Cambridge, N. Y., called 

 on the trade in Chicago last week. 



A NEW seed and plant store was recent- 

 ly chartered at Wilmington, Del., under 

 the name of the Emma S. Eanch Co. 



Judging by their prices, the European 

 exporters of bulbs, stocks, etc., do not 

 seem to realize that the war boom is 

 over. 



James A. Brown, of Brown's Bulb 

 Eanch, Capitola, Cal., not only is grow- 

 ing a large acreage of bulbs, but is also 

 growing sweet pea seed. 



The demand for gladiolus bulbs at the 

 Boston seed stores breaks all records this 

 season and a surprising number of high- 

 priced ones are included. A much in- 

 creased call for primulinus hybrids is 

 noted. 



The Wholesale Grass Seed Dealers' 

 Association will meet at St. Louis June 

 20 and 21 and will be followed by the 

 American Seed Trade Association con- 

 vention June 22 to 24. Headquarters 

 will be at the Hotel Statler. 



Onion sets are still going strong in 

 some of the Chicago retail seed stores, 

 though one of them did recently advise 

 dumping them. They seem to be selling 

 later than usual this year, probably on 

 account of the backward weather. 



W. F. Therkildson, for many years 

 sales and advertising manager for the 

 W. Atlee Burpee Co., Philadelphia, and 

 later in charge of the agricultural divi- 

 sion of N. W. Ayer & Co., has joined an- 

 other advertising firm, Critchfield & Co., 

 Chicago, as vice-president. 



Holland bulb exporters who speak 

 candidly admit that their customers in 

 America nearly all lost money on forcing 

 the bulbs bought last season and that 

 equally heavy purchases at still higher 

 prices this year were not to be expected. 

 Many of the bulb travelers recognize that, 

 while the exporters made good money last 

 year, they are likely to make none at all 

 this season. 



Now is the time for advertising and 

 window displays of garden hose, sprays, 

 insecticides, hoes, trowels, and all other 

 accessories that are used in connection 

 with gardens. The W. W. Barnard Co., 

 Chicago, has an attractive equipment 

 window this week. Just enough sprays, 

 hose, cans of insecticides, etc., in it to 

 tell the story of needed garden helps, 

 but not so many that the articles in it lose 

 their identity in a mass of objects. 



Adrian J. Schoorl, who was for some 

 years with C. C. Morse & Co., San Fran- 

 cisco, has opened oflBces at 255 California 

 street to engage in the importing and ex- 

 porting seed business. Mr. Schoorl, who 

 has traveled extensively in Europe for 

 C. C. Morse & Co., is taking orders for 

 fall deliveries of Holland bulbs. He is 

 also signing up with California and 

 other western seed growers for handling 

 their seeds for exportation to Europe,
