 Secretary-Treasnrer. O. B. Kendel, CleTeland. O. 



Thlrty-tbird annnal convention, San E^ancisce. 

 Oal., June 22 to 24, 1916. 



Holders of valley pips in cold storage 

 are discovering that stock they thought 

 in good condition actually has made sev- 

 eral inches of growth and is of no value. 



In the vicinity of Chicago, onion seed 

 planted for sets has been whipped out of 

 the ground by the strong winds. Rad- 

 ishes planted for market purposes have 

 suffered a like fate. 



Beet seed has been added to the list 

 of articles which are temporarily ex- 

 empt from duty when imported into 

 France, under a recent decree of the 

 French government. 



The Dutch bulbs have pretty much all 

 bloomed and are gone. The stock seems 

 to have been used up without any strain 

 on the trade that could be laid directly 

 to the greater quantities of bulbs brought 

 over last season. 



Eetail seed business this spring has 

 been the best in the history of the 

 Younkerman Seed Co., Council Bluffs, la., 

 according to W. C. Grote, secretary and 

 manager of the company. Wholesale 

 trade has been good, but not above nor- 

 mal. 



After traveling over the entire country 

 several times, John De Groot, representa- 

 tive of Driehuizen Bros., Lisse, Holland, 

 has decided upon Chicago as the ideal 

 place for permanent headquarters. As 

 soon as he has his household comfortably 

 located, Mr. De Groot will go on his west- 

 ern trip. 



Commenting on the financial troubles 

 of certain of New York's big stores, an 

 observer says : * ' The department store 

 still sells everything from seeds to ostrich 

 feathers, but its appeal is no longer so 

 compelling that specialists in those lines 

 fear its competition, or care much for its 

 intermittent attempts to feature special 

 sales at cut rates. ' ' 



The seed importers who made hay 

 while the sun was shining, in the matter of 

 bringing in stock for 1916 season, ap- 

 pear to have done the right thing. The 

 embargoes may not prevent further ex- 

 ports of 1915 crops and may be raised 

 before 1916 harvest is cleaned, but the 

 man with the stock in the warehouse is 

 the one on the safe side. 



As he is chairman of the transportatWn 

 committee of the American Seed Trade 

 Association, which holds its thirty-third 

 annual convention in San Francisco, June 

 22 to 24, 8. F. Leonard, president of the 

 Leonard Seed Co., Chicago, will see the 

 exposition from necessity as well as from
