ness the seed trade in Memphis ever has 

 enjoyed and says the shortage of money 

 is the only disturbing circumstance. 



The Everett Seed Co., Atlanta, Ga., 

 comments on the heavy call for seed po- 

 tatoes and onion sets. 



The south is buying seeds, all right, 

 but ^ .rhaps not quite so strongly as some 

 sanguine seedsmen expected. 



The Page-Phillips Seed Co., of Toledo, 

 has been incorporated, capital $50,000, 

 by Thomas H. Hill, Frank M. Hackett, 

 Harold J. Kehoe, S. A. Carter and Paul 

 W. Alexander, to deal in seeds, grains, 

 plants and bulbs. This is the reorgani- 

 zation of the Phillips Seed Co., under the 

 direction of E. L, Page, of Greene, N. Y. 



SENATE CUTS OUT FEEE SEEDS. 



The Senate committee, in reporting 

 the agricultural appropriation bill Feb- 

 ruary 16, eliminated the paragraph pro- 

 viding funds for the congressional free 

 seed distribution of 1916, for which 

 contracts were let a fortnight ago. It 

 must not be considered, however, that 

 the seed distribution is seriously en- 

 dangered. The same thing happened 

 last year: the House provided for the 

 distribution, the Senate cut it out and 

 then the conference committee put it 

 back. The same thing is more than 

 likely to happen in the present in- 

 stance, but perhaps some day the con- 

 ference committee will arise to its op- 

 portunity and end this oldtime abuse.

BODDINGTON MAKES STATEMENT. 



Arthur T. Boddington gave out the 

 following statement February 15: 



"At a meeting of the larger cred- 

 itors of A. T. Boddington, 342 West 

 Fourteenth street. New York, held 

 Thursday afternoon, February 11, the 

 consensus of opinion was shown to be 

 unanimously in favor of continuing the 

 business, looking to the best interests 

 of all concerned. Accordingly, a cred- 

 itors' protective committee was ap- 

 pointed, the following gentlemen being 

 elected to serve thereon: C. W. Scott, 

 of the Yokohama Nursery Co.; Chas. 

 Schwake, of (^has. Schwako & Co., Inc., 

 and Remson S. Mills. This committee 

 will take full control of the business, 

 Mr. Boddington giving his active co- 

 operation. It was demonstrated that 

 a forced sale at this time would leave 

 creditors absolutely without any divi- 

 dend whatsoever, whereas under the 

 economies to be put in force by the 

 cerditors' protective committee, and 

 with the cooperation of the creditors 

 themselves, there is every possibility 

 of the business being eventnally re- 

 stored to a profitable basis. The house 

 of Arthur T. Boddington is well and 

 favorably known to the purchasing pub- 

 lic, it has expended large sums in ad-
