 better climatic conditions for producing 

 and curing the seed. 



Now you can get freesias from: Ber- 

 muda, California, France, Azores and 

 Japan, with other places still to hear 

 from. 



Under the head of "Business Em- 

 barrassments ' ' this week is recorded the 

 appointment of a receiver for the Buf- 

 fum Pure Seed Co., of Worland, Wyo. 



Early in the year a good many mail- 

 order houses figured on pricing their 1915 

 catalogues on some sort of a zone sys- 

 tem to conform to the parcel post, but 

 as they get to figuring out the details 

 the method seems too complicated and too 

 bewildering for the buyer. As a result 

 most of the 1915 books will continue to 

 quote on the old flat rate basis of de- 

 livery anywhere, including postage at 

 about 8 cents per pound.

 fectly feasible for the Post-office De- 

 partment to permit the forwarding of 

 packages postage to be paid by the re- 

 cipient, under cash guarantee by the for- 

 warder that forwarding charges would 

 be paid by recipient, or forwarding and 

 return charges by the forwarder in case 

 the goods were refused by consignee? 



As" nearly all packages sent in the re- 

 tail seed trade are paid for in adtirfce, 

 practically none would be refused, so 

 that the government would run almost 

 no risk, while a cash de|M6tt of $25 to 

 $100 would make the government por-
