The Florists' Review 



April 14, 1921 



Seed Trade News 



AKEKIOAN SEES TSADE ASSOCIATION. 

 Preildent, H. O. Baitings, Atlanta, Oa.; §ec- 

 retary-treasnrer, C. B. Kendel, CleTeland, 0. 



L. L. May & Co., St. Paul, have dis- 

 posed of their retail florists' department 

 to Charles R. Fuehlbruegge. 



J. A. MiDDLEBROOK & SoNS, Burliiigton, 

 Vt., report that they have good prospects 

 for their largest season on record, for 

 tlieir seed business has already opened up 

 well. 



Afteh being confined to his home and 

 to the hospital for nearly four months, 

 William IT. Dildine, secretary and 

 treasurer of .lames Vick's Sons, Roches- 

 ter, N. Y., is now able to go to the office 

 occasionally. 



Walter W. Harnden, president of the 

 Harnden Seed Co., Kansas City, Mo., died 

 at St. Joscj)h's liospital there Ai)ril 5 

 from an operation necessitated by ])nou- 

 monia. Further notice appears in the 

 obituary column this week. 



W. H. Hawkins, Seattle, W;ish., who 

 began selling seeds and bulbs to tlie 

 florists' trade a short time ago, has done 

 so well at it that he is giving up liis posi- 

 tion as manager of the greenliousos of 

 Eosaia Bros, to devote all his time to tlie 

 business. 



The seed store of A. C. Kendel, which 

 has been in Cleveland for eighty-two years, 

 recently took a perpetual lease on property 

 on High avenue between Huron road and 

 Prospect avenue. The new building l.as 

 been completely remodeled and is now a 

 light, airy and modern seed store witli 

 jiicnty of room for display stock. 



The seedsmen of Vancouver, B. C, .'ire 

 pleased with the appointment of A. K. 

 McKenzie, of the McKenzie Seed Co., 

 Brandon, to the executive council of the 

 Western Canada Colonization Association. 

 The object of this association is to secure 

 the settlement of some 20,000,000 acres of 

 land, which is now held by absent specu- 

 lators in western Canada. 



Seedsmen from all over the state of 

 Connecticut were present at Hartford to 

 voice tlieir disapproval when the pure seed 

 bill was before the legislative committee 

 on agriculture. To the men in tlie trade 

 the i)roposed bill seemed, as they termed 

 it, "impractical, eumborsome and radi- 

 cal." Watson S. Woodruff, of S. D. 

 Woodruff (.V Sons, Orange, Conn., stated 

 that "the seedsmen had built up reputa- 

 tions for honesty and integrity and were 

 guided by higher motives than the law 

 could provide." Both Mr. Woodruff and 

 S. F. Willard, of Comstock, Ferrc & Co., 

 Wethersfield, Conn., were present to op- 

 pose the proposed bill. 



Ch.'Vrles Dickinson, retired he;id ol' 

 tlie Albert Dickinson Co., Chicago, has 

 gone in strongly for flying as a ]iastime 

 and hobby. His friends at the club used 

 his aeronautical leaning as a chance to 

 jest, but have changed their tune now 

 that Mr. Dickinson has become almost a 

 marvel of robust health instead of a sub- 

 ject of frequent breakdowns from over- 

 work. He has averaged a flight a day since 

 last August and contemplates making his 

 flight for a license soon. Mr. Dickinson 

 says that he first became interested in 

 aviation when he flew for thirty minutes 

 with Tom Sopwith, the Englishman, at 

 the Chicago aviation meet in 1911. One 

 of the prized possessions of Mr. Dickinson
