 The amendment was adopted. 



Invoices in the usual commercial form 

 may be enclosed in parcel post packages, 

 under an order issued by the post-office 

 department last week. 



S. F. Leonard, John C. Leonard and 

 several travelers represented the Leonard 

 Seed Co., Chicago, at the canners' con- 

 vention at Louisville this week. 



The southern seed trade is opening 

 well and all the seed houses in that sec- 

 tion are busy. They say the business is 

 largely in farm seeds thus far, the garden 

 and flower seed business not having 

 started in as yet. 



In the process of constructing its new 

 west side plant in Chicago the Albert 

 Dickinson Seed Co. has taken out a build- 

 ing permit for a 2-story brick warehouse 

 at West Thirty-fifth street and South 

 California avenue, to cost $G5,000. 



PEAS IN IDAHO. 



The following is from tlio Times, 

 published at Twin Falls, Idaho: 



"A. L. Stone, represfenting the D. M. 

 Ferry Seed Co., one of the biggest east- 

 ern seed firms, has been in this city for 

 the last week getting in touch with the 

 ranchers who desire to raise seed peas. 

 Mr. Stone states that he has so far 

 placed about 2,500 acres on this tract, 

 but desired to place acreage to the 

 amount of at least 4^500 for this year. 

 A new shipment of seed is expected in 

 a short time and it is desired to place 

 this seed with the ranchers before plans 

 for the year's crop are made by the 

 farmers. Mr. Stone has moved to this 

 city to take up his residence. Last year 

 a number of the Twin Falls ranchers 

 tried the seed pea crop as an experi- 

 ment, and realized a handsome profit 

 and the demand for the seed will no 

 doubt be heavy as soon as the informa- 

 tion reaches the ranchers." 



TO EXTEND IMPURE SEED LAW. 



A bill to prohibit the interstate 

 shipment of impure seeds has been in- 

 troduced in the Senate by Senator Asle 

 .T. Gronna, of North Dakota. It is 

 practically an extension of the law pro- 

 hibiting certain imports, printed in 

 The Review for February 6, as it pro- 

 vides that the shipment for seeding 

 purposes from one state, territory or 

 district of the United States into an- 

 other state, territory or district of 

 seeds of alfalfa, barley, Canadian blue 

 grass, Kentucky blue grass, awnlcss 

 brome grass, buckwheat, clover, fioM 

 corn, kafir corn, meadow fescue, flax, 

 oats, millet, orchard grass, rape, red- 

 top, rye, sorghum, timothy, wheat, or 

 any other cereal or grass seeds, or any 

 vegetable seeds or flower seeds, or 

 mixtures of seeds .containing any of 

 sucli seeds as one of the principal com- 

 l)onent parts, wliich are adulterated or 

 unfit for seeding purposes, is proliib- 

 ited. The secretary of agriculture is 

 to make rules and regulations to pre- 

 vent tlie shipment of such seed. The 

 act shall not operate to prohibit the 

 shipment of seeds for the purpose of 

 cleaning them before offering tliem for 

 sale, it is provided, but such sliipments 

 shall be made in accordance witli regu- 

 lations prescribed by the secretary of 

 agriculture, to prevent the misuse of
