 Reporter 592.) - < - • / 



In the case of Phillips" vs. 'Termil- 

 lion, 91 Illinois Appellate. C9iH-t Re-' 

 ports 133, it was decided that the fact j 

 that a purchaser of seeds was a tenant; 

 on shares and sowed them on the leased; 

 land did not affect his right to" recover,' 

 as damages for breach of warranty, the 

 full indemnity which it was -the object 

 of the contract to secure. Such a con- 

 tract, the court held, inures to the beil6- 

 fit of the landlord as. well- as. of. the i 

 tenant. In a recent case on this samei 

 point, it was held by the Washington! 

 Supreme Court that the landlQrd ^may! 

 join his tenant in bringing tjie 'suit.i

Before the Seed' is Sown. 



' i 



When the purchaser discovers the in- 

 ferior quality of the seed before sow- 

 ing the same^ but elects to retain it, his 

 remedy, according to the Nebraska Su- 

 preme Court, is a claim for any excess 

 of the contract price over the market 

 value of the seed received. (Dunn vs. 

 Bushnell, 88 Northwestern Reporter 

 693.) This same rule has been applied 

 by the Georgia Supreme Court in the 

 case of Americus Grocery Co. vs. Brack- 

 ett, 46 Southeastern Reporter 657.) 



Applying the principle that a seller 

 is not liable for consequences of a 

 breach of warranty which he could not 

 have foreseen, it has been held by the 

 New York Supreme Court that if a 

 seller of seed did not know that the 

 buyer intended to mix them with other 

 seed, the value of such other seed could 

 not be taken into consideration in fix- 

 ing the amount of damages recoverable 

 by the purchaser for any breach of war- 

 ranty on the seller's part. (Fox vs. 

 Everson, 27 Hun. 355.) S. 



WHAT THE CONGRESSMAN SAID. 



In reporting to the House, March 25, 

 the Senate bill to restore the rate of 

 postage on small parcels of seeds and 

 plants. Representative Finley, of South 

 Carolina, said: 



"When the parcel post was under 

 consideration the question as to whether 

 parcel-post rates should be applied to 

 seeds, bulbs, etc., had not been deter- 

 mined. There was considerable oppo- 

 sition to the inclusion of seeds, for most 

 of the seeds sent by mail were con- 

 tained in small packages sold for 2, 3, 

 4 and 5 cents. 



"The old law provided that — 



The postage on seeds, cuttings, bulbs, roots, 

 scions, and plants shall be charged at the rate 

 of one cent for each two ounces or fraction 

 thereof, subject In all respects to the existing 

 law. 



' ' Under the parcel-post rates the post- 

 age would have been doubled on all 

 packages under four ounces in weight, 

 and on packages over four ounces the 

 pound rate and the zpne system would 

 have applied. This would have been an 

 increase not desired by anybody on all 

 small packages. In order to work out a 

 system that would be fair, and to afford
