Notice was given October 3 of the re- 

 tirement of Boland Bolgiano from the 

 •copartnership of J. Bolgiano & Son, of 

 Baltimore, Md, 



It is remarkable the way pansy seed 

 sells. This year larger quantities than 

 «ver before have been sold and the sup- 

 ply is well cleaned up. 



From a beginning in a small store in 

 the Masonic Temple, the Shugart-Ouren 

 Seed Co., of Council Bluffs, la., is com- 

 pleting its twentieth year in its new 

 three-story building. 



The Champaign Seed Co., of Cham- 

 paign, 111., has discontinued handling 

 shrubbery and florists' supplies and in 

 the future will confine its business to 

 field and garden seeds. 



A LARGE addition has been made to the 

 warehouse of the Edward F. Dibble Seed 

 Co., of Honeoye Falls, N. Y., doubling 

 the available floor space. The building 

 is of concrete blocks, 40x50 feet, and one 

 story in height. 



A. R. Miller, of the Covington Seed 

 Co.. of Covington, Ky., has disposed of 

 the concern to Goode & Dunkie, who will 

 continue the business as in the past. Mr. 

 Miller will give his time to the seed and 

 florists' trade in the firm to be known as 

 the W. K. Miller Sons. 



The American crop of aster seed is 

 increasing each year that there is a fair 

 crop and it appears that this season the 

 output of seed will be much better than 

 the crop of cut flowers would indicate. 

 Still there is no reduction in the quan- 

 tity of European aster seed imported. 



Alfalfa, fig, olive and walnut crops 

 were the only crops normal or above that 

 point this year in California, according to 

 figures announced at the office of the 

 state horticultural commission. The esti- 

 mates were made from returns submitted 

 to the commission by county horticultur- 

 ists. 



Creditors of the Alexander Seed Co., 

 Augusta, Ga., will receive a settlement of 

 ten per cent, as the agreement on this 

 composition has been confirmed by the 

 court. The total amount of the com- 

 pany's liabilities is $27,153, so that the 

 firm will pay $2,715.30 and be discharged 

 from bankruptcy. 



According to a recent decision of the 

 solicitor of the Department of Agricul- 

 ture, shippers of potatoes and other prod- 

 uce who misbrand the contents of the 

 barrels or packages, or fill up with mar- 

 bles or culls, will not only be subject to 

 a fine but will be likely to go to Atlanta 

 federal prison for a year, for violation of 

 the food and drugs act. The Department 

 of Agriculture has issued circular No. 21 

 bearing on the subject. 



Suit for an injunction has been 

 brought by the Griswold Seed Co., of 

 Lincoln, Neb,, against the road overseer, 

 who threatened to tear down the new 

 greenhouse of the firm, which was built 

 on land platted as a street in 1891 but 

 never nsed. The company has commenced 

 proceedings for the vacation of the prop- 

 erty as a street, but, until the restrain- 

 ing order was obtained, had to keep the
