 ties.

 at Chaumont, N. Y., has been sold to a 

 corporation that will carry on the busi- 

 ness in the future under the name of 

 the People's Milling Co. 



The shortage in tomato seeds promises 

 to be especially felt because canners al- 

 ready are practically sold out on the

 quire record quantities of seeds for 1907. 



Referring to the query of W, H. W.,

 is going on nicely. It was reported re-

 port was erroneous, as Mr. Pieters is at 

 the head of a concern having no connec- 

 tion with the Braslan company or any
