glass stopper, may be used to good ad- 

 vantage. This class of bottles is costly, 

 however, and aside from appearance they 

 are of no more value than the Mason 

 jar. 



Mason jars are to be had at any gen- 

 eral store. The drug bottles in all sizes 

 can be purchased at any of the drug- 

 gist sundry supply houses. 



PLACE TO BUY SEEDS. 



The Rural New-Yorker has been one 

 of the most insistent of the farm papers 

 in its demand that seedsmen guarantee 

 the seeds they sell,, and even the slight 

 modification of its views as indicated in 

 the editorial published October 17 will 

 be appreciated by the trade. The refer- 

 ence is as follows: 



' ' The seed business stands alone in the 

 fact that no absolute guarantee is given 

 by the dealers. If we buy seeds we know 

 before we plant them that the dealer will 

 not be responsible for the crop. In 

 Maryland, and we think in some other 

 states, efforts have been made to pass a 

 seeds law based on the principles of the 

 fertilizer laws, but it is not likely that 

 any court could compel the seedsmen to 

 guarantee varieties. The character of 

 the seedsmen therefore becomes of even 

 greater importance than in the case of 

 fertilizer manufacturers. There are a 

 number of seed houses which have for 

 many years conducted an honorable 

 trade. They do their best to secure 

 stong and vital seed — true to name. 

 Since, from the present nature of the 

 seed trade, no positive guarantee will be 

 given, the safest plan is to deal only with 

 those firms who are most conservative in 

 their statements and have a reputation 

 for fsdr dealing."
