AXEBICAK SEED TBADE ASSOCIATIOK. 



President, Lester L. Morse, San Francisco, Cal.; 

 Secretary-Treasurer, C. B. Kendel, Cleveland, O. 



Tblrty-tbird annual convention, San Francisco, 

 Cal., June 22 to 24, 1915. 



John Gerard, New Britain, Conn., 

 states that he is retiring from the seed 

 business. 



The number of seed houses is increas- 

 ing faster than is the number of capable 

 assistants. 



The Fort Bragg Growers ' Association, 

 Fort Bragg, Cal., recently received four 

 tons of peas from San Francisco, the 

 crop to go to the local cannery. 



Seed selling along the Atlantic sea- 

 board suffered an interruption April 3 

 by the heaviest snow that ever has vis- 

 ited that section so late in the season. 



The southern seedsmen liave about 

 reached the end of a highly successful 

 season. The movement for the diversi- 

 fication of crops was greatly to their 

 advantage. 



Quite recuperated by the healthful 

 climate of southwestern Texas, S. F. 

 Leonard, of the Leonard Seed Co., Chi- 

 cago, expects to resume his duties at the 

 oflSce about April 9 or 10. 



Fire April 1 destroyed the building 

 of Hardin, Hamilton & Lewman, Inc., 

 at 218 Second street, Louisville, Ky. 

 The loss on the seed concern's build- 

 ing and that of N. M. Uri & Co., 

 liquor dealers, adjoining is estimated at 

 $140,000. 



The seed business, generally speaking 

 is good, although the recurrence of cold 

 oeriods every few days has a marked ten- 

 dency to hold things back. This, how- 

 ever, is only temporary and the large 

 seedsmen are boosting 1915 for a record 

 year in the trade. 



M.ML orders are on the down grade, 

 of course, but April 5 in most houses 

 showed them still holding up well. 

 Counter trade had gained considerable 

 headway in eastern cities prior to the 

 big snow April 3, but is only beginning 

 to show signs of life at interior points. 



There is a heavy demand for cab- 

 bage, onion, potatoes, cucumber and, in 

 fact, everything that can be exported. 

 It is said in some quarters that this de- 

 mand, the heaviest in several years, is 

 due to the fact that Europe generally 

 and England especially will have to look 

 t-o America for its supply of food stuffs 

 for the coming year at least. 



The Georgia Products Co., of Atlanta, 

 recently organized for the purpose of 

 handling exclusively Georgia-grown food 

 products, is opening a seed store next to 

 the present store, on South Forsyth 

 street. R. O. Cochran, head of the con-
