The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



October 11, 1906.

AHEBICAIf SEED TBADE ASSOCIATION. 



Pres., Henry W. Wood, Richmond, Va.; First 

 Vlce-Pres., Charlss Surge, Toledo, O.; Sec'y and 

 Treas., C. E. Kendel, Cleveland. The 26th annual 

 meeting will be held at New York City, June, 1907. 



At Elkhart, Ind., Oliver and Joseph 

 H. Grosh are preparing to open a feed, 

 implement and seed store. 



The frost kept off long enough to give 

 the vine seed growers all that was com- 

 ing to them from this year's crop. 



If the Long Island seed crops will 

 only do the right thing there may be 

 cabbage seed enough to go around. 



The Livingston Seed Co., Columbus, 

 O., has purchased the stock of Philip- 

 pine lily bulbs grown by Dr. Neeley, of 

 Paulding. 



The latest reports from the Pacific 

 coast are more encouraging. There will 

 be some fair deliveries made on onion 

 seed after all. 



The long, warm autumn has been 

 favorable to the tomatoes ripening for 

 seed and the yield will be larger than 

 was anticipated. 



From present indications it looks as 

 though the coming year will be a good 

 one for the seedsman who has the right 

 sort of stock on hand. 



For the titth successive year the 

 Archias Seed Store, Sedalia, has won 

 first premium for its display of seeds 

 at the Missouri State Fair. 



There is some complaint from onion 

 growers that the bulbs are not keeping 

 well this year. As' might be expected, 

 they blame the seed for this. 



It is reported that neither peas nor 

 beans will cause much anxiety to either 

 the grower or the purchaser after the 

 returns are all in. It is not stated when 

 that >Yill be, however. 



The onion set grower is asked to guar- 

 antee that bis goods will remain firm and 

 sound for three months after they are 

 in the warehouse of the purchaser. This 

 is asking almost too much. 



Visited Chicago: Max Wilhelmi, of 

 Barteldes Seed Co., Lawrence, Kan.; F. 

 W. Ma as, of Planters' Seed Co., Spring- 

 field, ^o.^, Boland Bolgiano, of F, Bol- 

 giano & Son, Baltimore, Md. 



This week Chicago has been the cen- 

 ter of disturbance in the onion set mar- 

 ket ; last week it was Louisville. It is 

 expected that it will switch around to 

 Baltimore and Philadelphia later. 



With radish seed scarce, the popular 

 varieties of onion seed almost beyond 

 reach, and the editors of the cut rate 

 seed catalogues holding back copy, 

 things are quite interesting as a whole. 



In Pennsylvania the opposition to the 

 free seed scheme and the consequent 

 waste of government money is manifest- 

 ing itself strongly. Organization after 

 organization of farmers, notably the 

 grange bodies, has declared against the 

 waste of government money in seed dis- 

 tribution.
