effect seedsmen have been tabulating 

 their mailings in the endeavor to see 

 what zones their business covers. Of 

 course scarcely any two houses make 

 exactly the same showing. Some 

 houses have a worth-while business in 

 the sixth, seventh and eighth zones, 

 but some important houses find they 

 have nothing of consequence beyond 

 the fifth zone. Consequently they can 

 base their catalogue prices on fifth, 

 fourth, third or local zone distribution 

 as fits their individual situation. It 

 was at once apparent, when seeds and 

 catalogues were put under the zone 

 rates, that it was in favor of the local 

 seedsman as against the houses with 

 nation-wide business. 



PEA PACKERS CONVENE. 



Wisconsin canners, who are said to 

 pack over half the peas put up in the 

 United States, are holding a record con- 

 vention at Milwaukee this week, but 

 reports on the second day indicate that 

 the seedsmen, who are present in con- 

 siderable force, are not booking the 

 usual business. There is nothing which 

 could well be called an exhibit by seeds- 

 men, although everybody shows sam- 

 ples in one way or another. The seed 

 nouses and their representatives are as 

 follows: 



John H, Allan Seed Co., Sbcbovsran, Wis.; 

 E. M. Parmalee. 



W. W. Barnard Co., Chicago; W. W. Barnard, 

 A. H. Goodwin, Arnold Rtngier. 



Everett B. Clark Seed Co., Mlltord, Conn.;

O. H. HuDkel Co., Milwaukee; G. H. Hunkel. 



N. B. Keener. Uroy, N. Y.; J. McCrary. 



M. G. Madson Seed Co., Manitowoc, Wl8.;

Manitowoc Seed Co., Manitowoc, Wis.; A. Gutt-

Peninsula Seed Co.. Port Huron, Mich.; A. 

 Brotberton, Wm. Eckholm. 



Jerome B. Rice S<ed Co., Cambridge, N. Y.; 

 Wm. Langbrldge, Cbas. Guelph. 



One or two of the papers read held 

 interest for the seedsmen. R. B. Johns, 

 of Antigo, had something to say about 

 seed contracts and Prof. R. A. Moore 

 and Prof. E. J. Delwiche, of the Univer- 

 sity of Wisconsin, told of the recent 

 progress in developing strains of pea 

 seed for canning purposes. 



BUSINESS EMBABRASSMENTS. 



Toledo, O.— The Henry Philipps Seed 

 & Implement Co., 115-117 North St. Clair 

 street, has filed in the Probate court an 

 assignment of its real and personal 

 property in trust for the benefit of its 

 creditors. Judge O'Brien O'Donnell 

 appointed Merton L. Bamer assignee, 

 fixing his bond at $20,000. 



VALLEY PIPS VIA COPENHAGEN. 



The first lily of the valley pips to 

 reach New York came on the Swedish 

 steamer Oscar II, which arrived No- 

 vember 23. The following day the Hel- 

 lig Olav, of the same nationality, came 

 to port with a large shipment also. 

 Both these vessels ply from Chris-
