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



Thirty-third annual convention, San Francisco. 

 Cal., 1915. 



The western vine seeds have not often 

 been ripened, harvested and cleaned under 

 such favorable weather conditions as this 

 year. 



Incorporation papers have been is- 

 sued to Charles J. Cherry & Co., of 

 Rockford, 111., to "buy, sell and deal in 

 plants, seeds, bulbs, etc." The capital 

 has been fixed at $15,000. The incor- 

 porators are Charles J. Cherry, La Verne 

 C. Miller and A, Emmett Hickey. 



A 10-YEAR lease has been obtained by 

 the St. Louis Seed Co. on the building to 

 be erected at 411-13 Washington avenue, 

 the old site next to the Missouri Athletic 

 Club building. The structure, 42x125, 

 which will have four stories and a base- 

 ment, is expected to be ready January 1, 



London bulb houses are offering Afri- 

 can-grown tuberoses as "a distinct im- 

 provement upon the ordinary American 

 Pearl; they are much earlier, and if 

 planted in October and kept under gentle 

 treatment, bloom about Easter; vigor- 

 -ous in growth, of even height, free and 

 large flowering." 



Each season for several years there has 

 been a steady increase in the number of 

 catalogues that price peas, beans and 

 sweet com by the pound rather than the 

 quart. This season there will be a still 

 farther important addition to the list as 

 a result of the discussion that has been 

 carried on this summer. 



There probably never was a season that 

 presented so many difficulties for the man 

 who wants to quote prices a considerable 

 time in advance of delivery. Not only 

 have prices been extremely erratic in the 

 last two months, but information is so 

 meager that no one can more than guess 

 as to" the future. 



MB. THEBEILDSON APPBOVES. 



W. F. Therkildson, the indefatigable 

 chairman of the postal laws committee 

 of the American Seed Trade Association, 

 strongly approves the recommendations 

 regarding method of pricing seed cata- 

 logues made in last week 's issue of The 

 Review by H. G. Hastings, of Atlanta. 

 "It is with pleasure that I note your 

 printing of the letter of H. G. Hastings 

 relative to the matter of the postage 

 problem," writes Mr. Therkildson. "I 

 have been in correspondence with Mr. 

 Hastings a great deal in this matter, 

 and I wish to say that the publication 

 of these letters will do more to bring 

 about the feeling and condition that 

 should exist in the trade relative to this 

 complicated parcel post system than any 

 other thing that could be done. 



"As yMi'-Are ^lly aware, it hais beeii 

 my idea since the beginning that wher- 

 ever possible everyone should stick to 



it
