A. B. Butler, 1226 Shapline street, 

 Wheeling, W. Va., is a florist who is put- 

 ting in a line of garden and flower seeds 

 for the spring of 1908 and who contem- 

 plates making the seed business one of 

 his principal interests. 



There still are rumors that there is a 

 great plenty of Red Wethersfield and yel- 

 low flat onion seeds in the hands of un- 

 located parties and that it will show up 

 in the near future. The sooner the bet- 

 ter, is the opinion of the set growers. 



Although onion set prices are re- 

 ported easier at some of the shipping 

 centers, investigation shows that it is the 

 lack of quality rather than abundance 

 that is accountable for it. Sets are no 

 more plentiful now than they were, and 

 the price for a good article has stiffened 

 during the last week, with no signs of a 

 decline. 



Eeports from some of the catalogue 

 bpuses who mailed their books out ear- 

 lier than usual this year state that busi- 

 ness begins just as soon as the cata- 

 logues reach the buyers. It has been 

 held by the catalogue trade generally 

 that a too early mailing of the catalogue 

 is not advisable, as the later issues reach 

 at a time when the recipient needs seed 

 and the book received too early is over- 

 looked.

 port business so far for January very 

 encouraging. Most of the contract busi- 

 ness has been shipped out and the or-
