The Flofisfts^ Review 



Mat 20. 1915. 



REVERSED 



Not maoy years since, the East was rushing westward on account of a 

 wealth of golden nuggets. Today the West is rushing eastward for the best 

 there is in flowerdom. 



Fruitvale. Cal., April 8. i915. 

 Mr. O. S. Ramsburg, Somersworth, N. H. 



Dear Sir: Your Silver Pink SEEDLING Snapdragons are wonderful! 

 Magnificent!,! Words are not sufficient to describe the 100x24-foot house of 

 them we now have in bloom. * • * Yours very respectfully. 



The Lacy Co. 



This wonderful Snapdragon will do the dame for you, and right now is the time to sow 

 seed for fall blooms. Price of seed, $1.00 per pkt.; 8 for S2.50; 7 for $5.00.

Johns, of the Sioux City Seed & Nurs- 

 ery Co. Most of the time was devoted 

 to the c\)n8ideration of business condi- 

 tions, the prospects for seed supplies 

 for the seasons of 1916 and 1917 and 

 the discussion of probable values and 

 terms of sale. The consensus of opinion 

 was that seeds should be worth more 

 money. The cental system, which has 

 been more or less generally adopted 

 largely as a result of the efforts of this 

 association, was reported as working 

 excellently and as obviating many of 

 the difficulties that were encountered 

 with the use of the old system. A com- 

 mittee was appointed, as was done a 

 year ago, to urge the matter before the 

 American Seed Trade Association. / 



Kesolutions of condolence to Mitchel- 

 hill Bros., of St. Joseph, on account of 

 the death of the junior Mr. Mitchelhill 

 in the sinking of the Lusitania, were 

 passed; also resolutions expressing the 

 deep appreciation of the association for 

 the great work done in its behalf by 

 Jesse C. Northrup, one of the founders. 



The old officers were reelected for 

 another term, as follows: President, H. 

 A. Johns, Sioux City, la.; vice-presi- 

 dent C. C. Massie, Minneapolis; treas- 

 urer, Henry Windheim, Omaha; secre- 

 tary, Mel. L. Webster, Independence, 

 Iowa. 



After a family dinner, automobiles 

 were furnished by the Nebraska Seed 

 Co. and the J. C. Eobinson Seed Co., 

 and the members all visited the Eobin- 

 son plant at Waterloo and had a most 

 delightful reception at the home of J. 

 O. Eobinson.
