AHERIOAN SEED TRADE ASSOCIATION. 



President, Lester L. Morse, San Francisco, CBl.; 

 Secretary-Treasurer, C. B. Kendel, Cleveland, O. 



Thirty-third annual convention, San Francisco, 

 Cal., June, 1916. 



The first Dutch bulbs of the season 

 arrived at New York July 31, on the 

 Sloterdyk, from Rotterdam, four cases 

 consigned to Maltus & Ware and two 

 cases consigned to G. W. Sheldon & Co. 



Incorporation papers have been is- 

 sued to the W. D. Wise Seed Co., of El 

 Paso, Tex. The capital stock is placed 

 at $30,000, and the incorporators are W. 

 D. Wise, Charles Davis and M. J. Mur- 

 ray. 



Those of the seed trade who deal in 

 lily bulbs will be interested in the table 

 on page 64, showing the shipments of 

 Formosa bulbs for the season : 6,371 cases 

 to America ; 3,559 cases to the rest of the 

 world; total crop slightly more than 

 9,930 cases, as the table was prepared in 

 Japan at almost the end of the shipping 

 season. 



As forecast in The Review of July 30, 

 L. Daehnfeldt, Ltd., of Odense, Denmark, 

 has announced the appointment of Axel 

 Knudsen as resident American agent. He 

 succeeds Wm. Rehm. Mr. Knudsen was 

 for several years employed in the Daehn- 

 feldt export department, but has of late 

 been a resident of Minneapolis, Minn., 

 where he conducted a business for him- 

 self. 



With lilies an everyday crop the de- 

 mand for bulbs from Formosa has in- 

 creased rapidly. The Formosa longi- 

 florums are not only the earliest to be 

 delivered but they flower earlier than 

 either Japanese or Bermudian Easter 

 lilies and are wanted by practically every 

 grower who tries to cut lilies steadily. 

 The demand has increaseu faster than 

 production. 



The Barteldes Seed Co., of Oklahoma 

 City, Okla., and the Oklahoma TraflBc As- 

 sociation have filed a joint complaint with 

 the interstate commerce commission 

 against the Santa Fe, Missouri, Kansas & 

 Texas, and other roads, stating that the 

 rates on Spanish moss from points in 

 Minnesota and Wisconsin to Oklahoma 

 points are unjust and unreasonable in and 

 of themselves, and especially when com- 

 pared with rates from the same points 

 to Kansas City and Joplin, Mo. ; Wichita, 

 Kan., and Fort Smith, Ark. 



THE WAB Ain> THE SEED TRADE. 



Imports Will Be Cut Off. 



The anxiety that prevails in the seed 

 trade as the result of the outbreak in 

 Europe is shown by the fact that The 

 Review has, in the last two days, re- 

 ceived a large number of inquiries, by 

 wire as well as by mail, regarding the 

 effect the war will have on imports. In
