 Prea., L.. B. Vanghan, Chicago; Sec'r and 

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

 ninth annual meeting, Marblebead, Mass., Jane 

 20 to 22. 1011. 



Quite a few bulb importers, who under 

 protest paid duty at $2.50 per thousand 

 on hyacinths the last two seasons, have 

 handsome rebates coming from the gov- 

 ernment. 



James Good & Co., Ashland, Wis., have 

 planted sixty-five acres of peas, for a seed 

 crop, just outside that town. Senator 

 Sanborn was up from Madison to su- 

 pervise the planting. 



James Cubbie, as forecast in this col- 

 umn some weeks ago, has been appointed 

 a member of the park board at Milwau- 

 kee. So thoroughly Socialistic is the city 

 administration that the newspapers there, 

 in discussing the appointment, thought it 

 necessary to comment on the fact that 

 Mr. Currie is not a Socialist. 



Steess of competition has carried the 

 prices of tulip mixtures to the point 

 where the duty of $1 per thousand gives 

 the government more money than would 

 have been paid under the old ad valorem 

 rate of twenty-five per cent. And on some 

 of the most largely sold named bedding 

 and florists' varieties the dollar duty 

 amounts to as much as would have been 

 paid were the old rate still in force. 



Heney Mette, Quedlinburg, has found 

 the 2-cent letter rate to Germany not the 

 most satisfactory arrangement and ad- 

 vises that "To secure a prompt arrival 

 of their orders, I would recommend my 

 esteemed friends and customers to use 

 a 5-cent stamp for their letters; as let- 

 ters franked with a 2-cent stamp are for- 

 warded only by a limited number of 

 steamers and, therefore, travel about 

 twice the time as those franked with a 

 5-cent stamp." 



F. A. FOEBES, of Forbes' Seed Store, 

 says that a larger acreage than usual has 

 been planted to onions in the locality of 

 Plymouth, Ind., this spring. Many grow- 

 ers have had considerable acreage eaten 

 up by insects of some kind. Some are 

 replanting, some planting cabbage, some 

 carrot, some let the weeds take it. Some 

 growers had "blow outs" just before the 

 splendid rain of May 22. One lost nine 

 teen acres in that way. He replants a 

 portion. Rain was much needed and will 

 prove a great help.

 County. N, J., on Oct. 27, 1910, writes as follows: "I want to state that your three grades of poultry 

 food— Chick Starter, Developing Food and 'Square Deal' Scratch or Poultry Food— stand without an 

 equal today. They are perfect mixtures and sound in grain and a pleasure to handle."
