AHEBICAN SEED TRADE ASSOCIATION. 



Pres., E. L. Page, Greene. N. Y.; First Vlce- 

 Pres., L. H. Vaugban, Chicago; Sec'y and 

 Treas., C. E. Kendel, Cleveland, O. Twenty- 

 ninth annual meeting, Marblehead, Mass., June 

 20 to 22. 1911. 



Arnold Eingier, secretary of the W. 

 W. Barnard Co., has returned to Chicago 

 after a trip to the Pacific coast. 



Visited Chicago : Carlos Jensen, man- 

 ager of export trade, and Wm. Rehm, 

 American representative of L. Dtehn- 

 feldt, Odense, Denmark. Mr. Jensen 

 was on his way to New York after a 

 trip to the Pacific coast. 



F. H. Henry, of Henry & Lee, New- 

 York, passed through Chicago May 15 on 

 his way to the Pacific coast, where he 

 will join Eobert Fulton, of his firm, who 

 has been ill since January, of a nervous 

 disorder. Mr. Henry may continue his 

 trip to Japan in case Mr. Fulton is not 

 able to make his annual voyage. 



The W. W. Barnard Co., Chicago, has 

 leased the premises at 231 to 235 West 

 Madison street, a five-story building, 45x 

 183 feet, occupied at present by the Chi- 

 cago American newspaper, and after 

 thoroughly remodeling same, expects to 

 occupy the new quarters about January 

 1, 1912. The location is on the main 

 line of travel to the Union Station and 

 the new Northwestern Station, soon to 

 be opened. It is ideal for the counter 

 trade. 



On account of a somewhat backward 

 spring and the absence of rain up to 

 about May 1, little was done before that 

 date in the Michigan pea section. Re- 

 cently there have been nice showers, 

 which put the soil in fine condition, and 

 caused great activity among the farm- 

 ers. By May 15 the peas were practi- 

 cally all in the ground. C. B. Pyle, at 

 Jackson, N. Y., said he thought the seed 

 was going in under fair conditions and 

 that, in his opinion, the next forty days 

 would tell the tale regarding the sea- 

 son's crop. 



HYACINTH DUTY AND ORAMMAB. 



Text of Customs Court Decision. 



Through The Eeview for May 4 the 

 trade received the news of the court de- 

 cision that the duty on hyacinth bulbs 

 is 50 cents per thousand under the ex- 

 isting tariflf act, instead of $2.50 per 

 thousand, as assessed during the two 

 seasons since the act went into effect. 

 The full text of the court's decision is 

 now available and will be of interest, 

 especially as most of those in the trade 

 believed that the intent of congress 

 was to provide for the higher rate. 

 Considering that the evidence in the 

 case shows that hyacinth clumps are 

 hardly an article of international com- 

 merce, one knowing the bulb trade and 

 who is not completely enamored of our
