The Rorists' Review 



Septkmbeb 3, 1914. 



T^Jk. 



THERE are many kinds of snaps in the world— some soft, some bard ; some 

 warm, some cold ; some bad, some good, and some better ; some light, some 

 dark, and some be.tween— but the snap that has the strongest hold on the 

 nation is our famous Seedling Silver Pink. It is known the world over and its 

 praises are sounded from every quarter. Its color is that soft, silvery shell pink 

 that so well fits into any occasion and is everywhere demanded. It is unlike com- 

 mon snapdragons, in that it makes more rapid growth and produces twice the num- 

 ber of blossoms. From the day that the seedlings break soil until blossoming 

 time, development is so marvelous that plants are never seen twice in the same 

 stage. It is a hustling, money-making SNAP. Follow our cue and get a batch 

 started in September. They will give you a raft of spring blossoms and a BUMPER 

 CROP at Memorial Day, when flowers are flowers. 



New crop seed, $1.00 per tfkde pkt., 3 for $2.50, 7 for $5.00.

EFFECT OF TRADE CUSTOMS. 



In the Interpretation of Contracts. 



The principle that a contract for a 

 sale of commodities in a particular 

 trade is presumed to have been made 

 with reference to a prevailing custom 

 or usage in that trade, on any essential 

 element of the transaction whicn is not 

 covered by express agreement, was ap- 

 plied by the Wisconsin Supreme Court 

 in a case involving a contract to buy 

 seed. (Gehl vs. Milwaukee Produce 

 Co., 81 Northwestern Reporter 666.) It 

 was decided in this case that where a 

 contract for a sale of clover seed was 

 silent as to the place of delivery, it 

 was open to the purchaser to show the 

 existence among seed dealers of a cus- 

 tom to deliver at the purchaser's store, 

 and that the seller in this case knew 

 of this custom. This was a suit to re- 

 cover damages for claimed breach of 

 a contract to buy specified quantities 

 of seed. Plaintiff, the seller, refused 

 to make delivery at defendant's store, 

 but tendered a warehouse receipt for 

 the seed called for by the contract, 

 which defendant refused to receive. 

 Thereupon plaintiff sold the seed else- 

 ■Where at less than the contract price 

 and claimed the right to hold defend- 

 ant for the difference. In sustaining 

 defendant's contention that the con- 

 tract was governed by a local trade 

 •custom requiring the seller to make 

 delivery at the buyer's place of busi- 

 ness, the Wisconsin Supreme Court 

 said: 



Defining What 1% Ambiguous. 



"A uniform trade custom is readily 

 accepted by the courts to define what 

 is ambiguous or is left indeterminate 

 in a contract, where both parties have
