The returns from the early catalogues 

 are reported as excellent. 



The seed trade has again reached the 

 time of year when capable assistants are 

 in demand. 



W. Atlee Burpee and family left 

 Philadelphia January 14 for a holiday at 

 Miami, Fla. 



Visited New York: L. W. Wheeler, 

 president of the Pieters- Wheeler Seed 

 Co., Palo Alto, Cal. 



The contract growers of beans surely 

 have had their troubles this season get- 

 ting their crops ready for delivery. 



The amended regulations for the car- 

 rying out ^f the Plant Quarantine Act 

 will be found on page 72 of this issue. 



With the expansion of gardening the 

 demand for seeds never ceases — seed sell- 

 ing rapidly is becoming an all-the-year- 

 round occupation. 



The sudden death of George F. Kidd, 

 appraiser of horticultural imports at the- 

 port of New York, is reported in this 

 week's obituary column. 



This season's seeds may not respond 

 well under germination tests, but few 

 planters will know the difference; most 

 of them always plant so thickly that poor 

 germination will make no difference in 

 the crop. 



The Jones Seed Co., of Grand Eapids, 

 Mich., has been incorporated, with a 

 capitalization of $12,000. The 'stock- 

 holders are men who were identified with 

 the organization known as the L. F. 

 Jones Co. 



The Imlay Co. has been incorporated 

 at Zanesville, O., with a capital of $20,- 

 000, for the purpose of handling seeds, 

 nursery stock, etc. The members of the 

 corporation are John D. Imlay, Hugh A. 

 Imlay, Wm. S. Imlay, Manning Imlay 

 and John E. Stonesipher. 



California seed crops are planted in 

 good condition, but as yet the winter 

 rains have not set in. Consequently the 

 season may be late this year. The Santa 

 Clara valley is having an unusual number 

 of frosty mornings, writes the Laughlin 

 Seed Co., of San Jose. 



In London a grower has recovered 

 $425 damages from a cold storage con- 

 cern that accepted valley pips with in- 

 structions to "stand the cases separately 

 until frozen through and then stack in 

 26 to 28 degrees," but when the stock 

 came out ten months later most of the 

 pips had made two inches growth. The 

 evidence showed that the thorough freez- 

 ing before stacking is of vital import- 

 ance.
