some markets prices have ruled very 

 low. Taken generally, the agricultural 

 seed trade is likely to prove a very 

 heavy one and at good prices. The Brit- 

 ish farmers are having a fairly pros- 

 perous time and are in a good mood for 

 using high class strains of seeds and giv- 

 ing good prices. They are also sowing a 

 considerably greater acreage than is the 

 case when trade is bad and money is 

 short with them. B. J.

We are tbe origrinatons of the True Orystal Wax Onion and are ready to execute orders for this 

 Item if placed at an early date. Beware of spurious and cheap seed. If you ask some of tbe Texas 

 growers their experience in the past years with a cheap Italian-grown Crystal you will certainly buy 

 nothing but our genuine seeds.

SEED TRADE CONVENTION. 



"Arrangements for the program of 

 the forthcoming annual convention of 

 the American Seed Tradfe Association, to 

 be held at the HotelVA^knT— Times 

 Square, New York City, June 25 to 27, 

 are progressing favorably," says an of- 

 ficial of the association. Among some of 

 the most interesting matters already ar- 

 ranged for are the following: 



"Reminiscences of the Seed Trade," 

 by F. W. Bruggerhof, of J. M. Thorburn 

 & Co. Mr. Bruggerhof has had an active 

 experience of more than fifty years in 

 the trade and those who are fortunate 

 enough to have a personal acquaintance 

 with him feel sure that his paper will be 

 a most interesting and valuable one.

reau of Plant Industry of the U. S. De- 

 partment of Agriculture, has agreed to 

 give a talk on "What the Department 

 of Agriculture Is Doing for the Seed 

 Trade." 



J. Horace McFarland will prepare a 

 paper on **The Twentieth Century Seed 

 Catalogue." From Mr. McFarland 's 

 knowledge and experience in this particu- 

 lar line, his treatment of the subject 

 should be both interesting and profitable 

 to the seedsmen. 



S. F. Willard will deliver a paper on 

 "The History of the American Seed 

 Trade Association," giving a review of 

 the principal and most notable events of 

 the association's life.
