 of the orders from men. When it comes 

 to those who garden understandingly,

The catalogue houses are having some 

 diflBculty in deciding what to feature in 

 the 1912 books. So many items are 

 short that the ones to push are not easy 

 to choose; the selections fall in too few 

 classes. 



We have recently been advised by 

 growers at Rocky Ford, Colo., that they 

 had a severe snow storm in the Arkan- 

 sas valley at Rocky Ford, Friday, Oc- 

 tober 20. The growers also stated fully 

 one-third of the cucumber crops were 

 still in the fields. This may cause a 

 serious loss iiv OMe the crops cannot be 

 seeded, or if those that have been seeded 

 become frozen in the pits. 



W, W. Baenabd Co., Chicago, is de- 

 veloping plans for what is intended to 

 be the finest seed store in Amei^ca. It 

 is not news that in January possession 

 will be had of the building on Madison 

 street, now occupied by one of the Hearst 

 newspapers, but it is interesting to note 

 .that every day appears to add value to 

 'the location, on the direct route, but not 

 too near, to the new Northwestern pas- 

 senger station and the proposed new 

 Pennsylvania station. While the plans 

 for remodeling the building are being 

 made with care, no less attention is being 

 paid to the interior arrangements and 

 fixtures.

OHB. DJEStfTELDT. 



The business of L. Psehnfeldt, the 

 seed growing firm of Odense, Denmark, 

 was established in a modest way by 

 Ludwig Dashnfeldt in 1850. Like nu- 

 merous American houses, he handled 

 for many years everything connected in 

 a general way with the nursery trade, 

 such as plants, shrubs, seeds, etc., and 

 it was only during the last twenty 

 years that the nursery lines were aban- 

 doned and all efforts were concentrated 

 in the seed trade, especially seed grow- 

 ing. 



That the firm now stands in the front 

 rank among Scandinavian seedsmen is 

 due largely to the energetic and effi- 

 cient management of its affairs by the 

 present chief proprietor, Chr. Dsehnfeldt, 

 who for many years has been the con- 

 trolling force in the business. Though 

 included among the so-called self-made 

 men, he is described as " a gentleman to 

 his very finger tips." 



As his establishment grew in size and 

 importance, Mr. Dsehnfeldt determined 

 that each one of his staff of assistants 

 ah — iM b» »« expmrt in some spceialty, 

 and with that end in view he divided
