not so great a task with that part of 

 the edition which was not off the press 

 when the first lot were held up — but it 

 meant a lot of money to Ward & Co., to 

 say nothing of the annoyance it caused, 

 which any seedsman knows was coijisid- 

 erable. It is safe to say, without hav- 

 ing direct authority for it, that Ward & 

 Co. will not let the matter rest until 

 they have exhausted every effort to se- 

 cure a different ruling on their prize 

 offers. They feel that there is nothing 

 in any way objectionable about them 

 and call the department's attention to 

 the fact that many reputable seedsmen 

 make offers identical with their own and 

 have never been interfered With; that 

 such offers have this season gone out in 

 large editions. 



To the seed trade the action of the 

 post-oflBce people appears inexplicable. 



RICE AND THE CANNERS. 



A seedsman who was at Buffalo dur- 

 ing the convention writes: "Many 

 pea canners will can sixty per cent of 

 Rice this year; they will probably all 

 can Rice another year." 



CAUFORNIA CROP CONDITIONS. 



Lester L. Morse writes under date of 

 San Francisco, February 23: "Relative 

 to present crop conditions, would say 

 that the continued wet weather has made 

 planting very late, but practically every- 

 thing is now in and except for the in- 

 convenience and extra expense in getting 

 our planting done there is nothing at

lOVA SEED LEGISLATION. 



A newspaper report dated Des Moines, 

 la., February 23, says: "The seeds- 

 men in this state are breathing easier; 

 impending legislation along the line of 

 pure seeds has been modified and its 

 threatening phases eliminated. Since 

 the bill was introduced in the state leg- 

 islature the state house has been the 

 scene of some protracted conferences 

 between the committee of the legisla- 

 ture and the seed dealers, headed by 

 Charles N. Page, the local seedsman. 

 H. A. Johns, of the Sioux City Seed 

 and Nursery Co., N. J. Burt, of Bur- 

 lington, and several others made repre- 

 sentations that the law as proposed was 

 not only inimical to the trade but would, 

 in fact, largely turn over to outside in- 

 terests the enormous business in farm 

 seeds now done in the state. The result 

 has been that a large number of changes
