AHEBICAN SEED TBAOE ASSOCIATION. 



Pres., George S. Green, Chicago; First Vlce- 

 pres.. 11. H. Duryea, New York; Sec'y and 

 Treas., C. E. Kendel, Cleveland. Twenty-sixth 

 annual convention at Hotel Pontcbartrain, De- 

 troit, Mich., June 23 to 25. 1908. 



Henry F. Michell Co., Philadelphia, 

 states that last season its importations of 

 bulbs from foreign lands were close to 

 six millions. 



Walter R. Paxson, gardener and 

 plantsman, has opened a seed store in 

 the Music Hall block, at Crawfordsville, 

 Ind. 



The Southern Seed Co., Louisville, 

 Kj., has been licensed to do business in 

 Indiana. Its capital stock is $50,000, 

 and the capital represented in Indiana is

The Albert Dickinson Co., Chicago, 

 sends out with its mail a reprint of a 

 bulletin of the United States Depart- 

 ment of Agriculture giving information 

 on Dwarf Essex rape. 



HiCKOX & Son, wholesale field seed 

 dealers at Batavia, N. Y., have caused 

 the arrest of an agent who represented 

 them at Frankfort, Ind., on a charge of 

 embezzlement, he having removed to 

 Iowa with $800 of the seedsmen 's money. 



President Crary, of the National As- 

 sociation of . Canners, has announced a 

 radical change in the plans for the next 

 conTention of the organization, Louis- 

 ville now being the place instead of 

 Chicago, as decided at the convention 

 in Cincinnati. The convention will be 

 held in the first week of next February. 

 The reasons for this change are not 

 stated and the information will occasion 

 much surprise. It will be recalled that 

 at the Cincinnati convention there was a 

 spirited contest on between Louisville 

 and Rochester for the honor of the 1909 

 convention and it came to a sudden end 

 when the committee, to whom the matter 

 was referred, announced that it had 

 abandoned both places in favor of Chi- 

 cago. 



ERFURT SEED TRADE. 



Scarcity of Certain Seeds. 



Business was very brisk last winter, 

 but a good many different articles 

 proved to be rather short and in conse- 

 quence they had to be bought elsewhere. 

 For instance, clover seed was very scarce 

 and could hardly be got anywhere for 

 money and kind words. Cauliflower, red 

 cabbage, white cabbage, savoy, borecole, 

 carrots, celery, beet roots, lettuce, onions, 

 leek, radishes and melons were plentiful.
