annually is very large, and the stock is 

 of superior quality. The quantity of 

 garden peas sent out from this city is 

 also very large, but this stock is not 

 produced in the immediate vicinity, as 

 in order to produce a high-class sample 

 of peas of superior quality and free 

 from pea-weevil, or so-called pea-bug, 

 seedsmen find it necessary to obtain 

 their supply of peas from more north- 

 em districts, where cool nights prevail 

 during the blooming season. Much more"^ 

 could be said in regard to the produc- 

 tion and distribution of seeds from this 

 city, but I hardly think it necessary, as 

 the reputation sustained by seeds sent 

 out from Eochester is quite sufficient to 

 bear out the statement that Eochester 

 is one of the largest and foremost of 

 cities in the United States in that 

 line." 



SEEDSMEN'S PERSONALTY. 



The Albert Dickinson Seed Co., Chi- 

 cago, will this year pay taxes on $430,- 

 000 personal property, in addition to its 

 big assessment on real estate. 



Under the Illinois law the assessors 

 ars required to add fifty per cent pen- 

 alty to the assessments made against 

 those who do not file schedules of their 

 personal property. This is the first 

 year the law has been enforced and the 

 Dickinson concern was one of a large 

 number that filed no schedules of per- 

 sonalty. The assessors put them down 

 for $500,000 at West Taylor street and 

 for $90,000 at the Clark street ware- 

 house, which with penalty made a total 

 of $885,000. On complaint to the board 

 of review this was cut down to: 



West Taylor street ^00.000 



Clark street 30,000 



Penalty 216,000 



Total $645,000
