Thirty-third annual convention, San Francisco, 

 Cal., 191S. 



Wouldn't this be an excellent year to 

 put an end to the free seed farce f 



Of course the big red tomato is the 

 feature of the Livingston 1915 catalogue, 

 only this time there are four of them. 



There is a subdued note in the 1915 

 catalogue covers. It looks as though the 

 red tomato's potency as an eye-catcher 

 iiad been somewhat forgotten. 



, It was no mistake to cut the price of 

 peas in the retail catalogues. Except tKat 

 most of the stock was bought a year ago 

 on growing contract, the prices might be 

 lower than they are. 



The annual convention of the National 

 Canners' Association and allied organiza- 

 tions will attract a large number of seeds- 

 men to New York the week of February 

 9 to 12. The meeting is to be held at 

 Hotel Astor, : " 



Among those present at the recent 

 meeting of the Minnesota Canners' Asso- 

 ciation at St. Paul were A. H. Smith, of 

 the Leonard Seed Co., Chicago, and C. P. 

 Ouelf, Chicago representative of Jerome

Information from Japan indicates 

 that the 1915 crop of giganteum bulbs 

 will be short and that prices will be

 of the Monroe Seed Co., at Monroe, La., 

 was badly damaged by fire on the morn- 

 ing of December 16. The loss to the 

 owners of the building and the occupants 

 is estimated at $4,000, fully covered by 

 insurance. 



When J. Charles McCuUough, of the 

 J. C. McCullough Seed Co., and Albert 

 IfcCuUough, of J. M. McCullough 's Sons 

 Co., both of Cincinnati, returned home 

 after several weeks* stay in Florida, they 

 brought with them not only photographs 

 but the skeleton of a huge shark, weigh- 

 ing 1,200 pounds, to convince any doubt- 

 ing Thomases of the size of their cap- 

 ture. 



The Thorburn catalogue, which last 

 season weighed, with the envelope, just 

 over eight ounces, has this season been 

 kept within the flat rate weight limit by 

 cutting the size from 160 pages to 144 

 pages. This has been accomplished by 

 the use of new cuts, outlined halftones of
