The Rorists' Review 



January 7, 1915. 



View of Fruit Setting and Plant Habit of BEST YET. 



Attention, 

 Greenhousemen ! 



TOMATO- 

 Goetz's Best Yet 



We especially recommend this new 

 forcer as the best yet introduced. 

 For forcing under glass it has no 

 equal; as a producer it stands alone 

 at the top of the forcing list. The 

 fruit is smooth, large, bright red. 

 Ripens all over at once; an ex- 

 tremely early setter. The skin is 

 firm, but still thin, making it an 

 ideal shipper. Goetz's Beat Tet 

 is offered to all who desire some- 

 thing especially choice for green- 

 house forcing. The success with 

 Best Yet as a forcer with the 

 greenhousemen will be most aston- 

 ishing.

 firm's allowance deducted, so that the 

 figures are what the customer must add 

 to the price of the seeds. The other

A HYBRID SALES CONTRACT. 



Negotiations for a contract by an 

 Alabama firm to sell seeds for D. M. 

 Perry & Co. on commission were so 

 grafted upon negotiations for an agree- 

 ment for absolute sale or return that 

 the Alabama Supreme court had diffi- 

 culty recently in determining whether 

 the result was a consignment on com- 

 mission or a sale. The question became 

 important in determining who was 

 liable for taxes assessed on the seeds, 

 D. M. Ferry & Co. or the retail mer- 

 chants. The former paid the tax under 

 protest and sued to recover the amount 

 paid, on the theory that title to the 

 seeds was in the dealers, and were de- 

 feated in the Circuit court, but, on ap- 

 pealing to the Supreme court, obtained 

 a reversal of the judgment. The con- 

 tract between the parties was evi- 

 denced by an order and an invoice and 

 memorandum of shipment. The order 

 called for seed to be sold on commis- 

 sion, the unsold seed to be returned 

 with the boxes in good order when 

 called for, and for payment then for 

 all seed not returned. The invoice and 

 memorandum of shipment recited ship- 

 ment in compliance with the order, and 

 directed attention to an itemized retail 

 invoice on the inside of the box cover. 

 Another clause read, "No allowance 

 for exchange," and another, "We agree 

 to buy back all unsold seed with boxes 

 at prices billed, less discount, when our 

 traveler calls." In rendering judg- 

 ment, the Supreme court said: 



"While, in the instant case, a por- 

 tion of the contract has the words 'sell 

 on commission' and the word 'consign- 

 ment' written thereon, yet other por- 

 tions (memorandum of shipment and 

 invoice, etc.) make use of the words

'sold to' and agreement to 'buy back,' 

 and nothing is said as to the title to 

 the seeds or that the retail merchant 

 is in fact the agent of the wholesaler, 

 and, from what is therein contained, it 

 is difficult to determine the real in-

 statement of facts, however, contains 

 the method of business, the course of 

 dealing in reference to such transac-
