The. penny post la leading to much 

 closer relations between the seedsmen of 

 Great Britain and the United States. 



E. M. Lyman & Son, Springfield, 

 Mass., have incorporated with $20,000 

 authorized capital stock, to grow and sell 

 seeds. Albert E, Lyman is president and 

 treasurer. 



In his November price list Conrad 

 Appel, Darmstadt, Germany, states the 

 percentages of purity and germination 

 of a long list of grass, clover and agri- 

 cultural seeds. 



It is predicted by some that the sale 

 of Prizetaker onion seed in the south- 

 west this season will be aflFected by the 

 low prices which were realized for the 

 unusually large crop of this onion raised 

 last summer, especially in Texas, which 

 has become one of the most important 

 states in the Union from the seedsman's 

 point of view.

Seeds Of Choice Herbaceous and Alpine Plants 



We desire to extend our already large business with 

 our Colonies and the United Stttes, America, in the 

 above class of seeds, our great specialty. We know 

 that our aeeda have been the means of enabling 

 many lovers of old-fashioned hardv perennials and 

 Alpine plants to obtain a gocd collection at a very 

 small cost, whereas the expense of getting nlants from 

 England is prohibitory in most cases. Catalog, which 

 contains descriptions of nearly 3000 kinds of flower 

 seeds of all classes, incladicg latest novelties, and 

 also much educational matter, will be sent free on 

 application. Established over 50 years.
