McHUTCHISON IN COURT. 



The New York city authorities are 

 trying to prevent McHutchison & Co. 

 from Storing raffia in their own building 

 in excess of five tons under a city ordi- 

 nance which prevents the storage of 

 straw, paper, excelsior and inflam- 

 mable animal or vegetable fibers in the 

 form of scraps and clippings. Mc- 

 Hutchison & Co. usually carry in stock 

 from forty to 120 tons, 400 to 1,200 

 bales, and are contesting the order in 

 the courts. Three days were occupied 

 by the trial, several well known nurs- 

 erymen and seedsmen testifying for the 

 firm. Decision was expected June 13. 



MOTT-LY GIiEANINGS. 



The J. J. Wilson Seed Co., Newark, 

 N. J., is extending the field of seed sup- 

 ply to South America, mentioning the 

 receipt of a large order to include many 

 specialties in flowers and vegetables. 

 A Spanish correspondent will be a 

 needed part of the seed establishment 

 of the future, predicts Mr. Wilson, who 

 agrees that the placing of seed con- 

 tracts for next season's delivery will 

 be most carefully done. 



Harry Holmes, of the Holmes Seed 

 Co., Harrisburg, Pa., is confined to his 

 home with rheumatism, which he hopes 

 to conquer. 



Alexander Forbes & Co., Newark, X. 

 J., found business affected by the weath- 

 er, but looked for much return sowing. 



Martin C. Ribsam, Trenton. N. J., 

 reports much of the stock supplied cus- 

 tomers in southern New Jersey suffered 

 from the late frosts and he is endeav- 

 oring to assist his seed patrons in every 

 wav, to show practical sympathy. 



Walter S. Schell, Harrisburg, Pa., re- 

 ports a good general seed demand, 

 having felt the effect of the cold 

 spell, which apparently was country- 

 wide. The new store, with its 40,000 

 square feet of floor space, is possibly 

 the largest of its kind and must be a 

 big factor toward a greater volume of 

 trade, which can now be satisfactorily 

 handled. ^- ^^-
