Parcel Post and Postal Beforms. 



Inasmuch as bothour great political 

 parties now realize the fact that the 

 parcel post must become an established 

 institution of the United States, the 

 work which now remains is for us to 

 assist other organized bodies in the 

 endeavor to bring about a genuine 

 parcel post and not a "make believe" 

 — a parcel post institution that will 

 be of advantage to the business men 

 of the country, as well as to the 

 masses, and not one that will work into 

 the hani^s of the organized tepress or 

 other interests. The subject is one 

 which demands the closest attention, 

 and I will not attempt to go into de- 

 tails or advocate the passage of any 

 particular measure now before Con- 

 gress, as, of the several bills now 

 before one house or the other, there 

 are none which are to be recommended 

 in their entirety. I would counsel all 

 our members to watch their daily and 

 trade papift most carefully, and to 

 take sucbKqnition as may be recom- 

 mended by these journals, assisted by 

 their own good common sense. In this 

 connection, it has been proved, with- 

 out doubt, that if you write your con- 

 gressmen and senators, with conviction, 

 a letter expressing politely but forcibly 

 the result of your own thought in the 

 matter, it will be given attention. My 

 recommendation is that we pass a res- 

 olution on this floor, "calling for the 

 enactment of a parcel post bill which 

 will give us the qa^e low rates and 

 privileges as to pafCdl post as are now 

 being enjoyed \^ tfie people of nearly 

 every European country. We cannot 

 attempt to make rates, but we can 

 protest against the charges being made 

 so high as t^., render the institution of 

 parcel post tf farce. 



The Trade Pzess. 



To our trade press much is due for 

 the advancement of horticulture in 

 the twenty years that have passed, and 

 for the unremit^g efforts of the 

 directors of these publications to keep 

 us in the vanguaVd of events should 

 •ur utmost thanks be expressed. As 

 cenductj^. they keep us apprised of 

 •verything^that is going on in our line 

 throughout the entire country, often
