The Holland seeds are beginning to 

 arrive. 



The Door County Seed Co., Sturgeon 

 Bay, Wis., received its first carload of 

 Michigan peas of the 1912 crop August 

 20. 



The Fottler, Fiske, Rawson Co., Bos- 

 ton, has obtained much publicity in news- 

 papers that are inclined that way by 

 naming a new bright red dahlia the Buil 

 Moose. 



The pea crop, on the whole, is turning 

 out better than was expected, weather 

 conditions after the late start and sub- 

 sequent drought having been exception- 

 ally favorable. 



Work has begun on the erection of 

 the new warehouse for Noble Bros., deal- 

 ers in field seeds at Foosland, HI. The 

 new structure will be built of brick on a 

 concrete foundation, and will cover a 

 space 100 feet square. 



The Welland Seed Co., Ltd., is the 

 name under which the Dunkirk Seed Co. 

 and the Lake Shore Seed Co., of Dun- 

 kirk, N. Y., will push into Canada. They 

 were recently reported as having bought 

 property for a warehouse at Welland, 

 Ont. 



Potatoes for seed will be refused en- 

 trance to the ports of the United States 

 if they come from countries that have 

 the wart disease. The Secretary of 

 Agriculture is moving under the new 

 plant quarantine law. See the article on 

 jiage 6.'! of this issue. 



The California Seed Growers' Asso- 

 ciation is the name of a new company 

 at San Jose, Cal. D. G. Fisher is presi- 

 dent, J, W. Edmundsen is vice-president 

 and manager, and M. W. Williams is 

 secretary and treasurer. Mr. Edmundsen 

 was formerly sales manager and Miss 

 Williams was formerly secretary of the 

 Braslan Seed Growers' Co. 



Since Congress has adjourned its mem- 

 bers have plunged into the campaign. A 

 Washington newspaper tells of the plans 

 of members to mend their fences and 

 concludes: "Republican leader James 

 R. Mann left August 25 to attend to the 

 weeds and brambles that have been grow- 

 ing unchecked in the garden of his Chi- 

 cago district during the long session." 



The Colorado Seed & Nursery Co., 

 Denver, is a new concern organized by 

 former employees of the Barteldes Seed 

 Co. C. R. Root, president and manager, 

 was with Barteldes for twenty-one years, 

 fourteen of them as manager. W. F. 

 Horlacher, vice-president, was with Bar- 

 teldes nearly fourteen years, and Lewis 

 Malone, secretary and treasurer, for four 

 years has had charge of the Barteldes 

 city store. 



Thomas W. Chisholm, for many years 

 identified with one of the largest seeds- 

 men in the country, prior to his coming 

 Mest, has been made sales manager of the 

 Braslan Seed Growers' Co., Inc., San 

 Jose, Cal., with which he has been asso- 

 ciated for the last year. Since returning 

 from his eastern selling trip, Mr. Chis- 

 holm has had charge of the Braslan Sac- 

 ramento and San Joaquin river growing
