Edwin Lonsdale, of Lompoc, Cal., 

 was a visitor at Salt Lake City, Utah, last 

 week. 



A NOTICE of the death of James Slimon, 

 well known in the seed trade in New 

 York city, appears in the obituary col- 

 umn of this issue. 



In the north shore wealthy suburban 

 district above Chicago tulips made a 

 good show in late April and early May. 

 And, strange to relate, there seemed to 

 be as many Keizerskroon as all other va- 

 rieties put together. 



The greatest tulip exhibit ever possible 

 anywhere outside Holland will be a part 

 of the national exhibit of the Netherlands 

 at the Panama-Pacific International Ex- 

 position at San Francisco in 1915. Two 

 acres will be devoted to the tulip beds. 



The way the gladiolus bulbs are clean- 

 ing up is not only a pleasure but a sur- 

 prise. The market was demoralized in 

 January, but steadily has gained strength 

 as the season has progressed and the ap- 

 pearance now is that there will be no 

 surplus, not even of America. 



The Colorado Seed & Nursery Co., 

 Denver, handles everything from seeds 

 to bulbs, tree seeds and cut flowers. The 

 corporation has $25,000 capital stock. 

 C. R. Root is president and manager. 

 The other ofScers are: Vice-president, 

 W. r. Horlacher; secretary and treas- 

 urer, Lewis Malone. 



The price of French Romans appears 

 to have settled at 110 francs for twelve 

 to fifteen centimeter bulbs. This means 

 a cost of $25.50 at New York, and about 

 $26 at Chicago, from which it appears 

 that a great deal of business has beefi 

 booked at prices which will not meet the 

 iobbers' overhead expenses. 



Robert W. Ward, formerly with Currie 

 Bros. Co., of Milwaukee, now is with the 

 Page Seed Co., of Greene, N. Y., and 

 making a business trip through the New 

 England states. Mr. Ward was not only 

 well known around Milwaukee in the seed 

 trade, but came to the front in organiz- 

 ing the Milwaukee and District Soccer 

 Football League. 



SENATE KILLS FREE SEEDS. 



In the Senate, May 9, the provision 

 for the congressional free seed distribu- 

 tion of 1915 was stricken from the agri- 

 cultural appropriation bill. 



Following the recommendation of the 

 secretary of agriculture, when the 

 House committee on agriculture brought 

 in the annual appropriation bill the 

 congressional free seed distribution was 

 eliminated, the appropriation being 

 turned to other purposes better calcu- 

 lated to advance the agriculture of the
