February has made an excellent start 

 for the mail order bouses. 



According to the State Board of Ag- 

 riculture, the timothy seed crop in Ill- 

 inois in 1910 was only 51,112 bushels, 

 against 80,066 bushels in 1909 and 389,- 

 056 bushels in 1884. 



The death of Edward L. Coy, widely 

 known as a grower of cucumber seed and 

 as the raiser of new varieties of potatoes, 

 is recorded in the obituary column of this 

 issue, with a brief account of his long 

 life and work. He was an octogenarian. 



Charles N. Page and other Iowa 

 seedsmen are urging the passage of an 

 amendment to the state pharmacy law 

 to make it possible for seedsmen, florists 

 and others besides registered pharmacists 

 to sell insecticides in original packages. 

 For twenty-five years the sale of insecti- 

 cides in Iowa has been exclusively in the 

 hands of the drug trade. 



THE CANNEBS' SEEDSMEN. 



The canners' convention at Mil- 

 waukee last week attracted a considera- 

 ble number of seedsmen, and it was 

 noteworthy, all things taken into ac- 

 count, how many of them were able to 

 offer spot peas where there was future 

 business in sight. Those who had ex- 

 hibits were: 



Leonard Seed Co., Chicago. 



E. B. Clark Seed Co., Milford, Conn. 



S. D. Woodruff & Sons, Orange, Conn. 



Livingston Seed Co., Columbus, 0. 



W. W. Barnard Co., Chicago. 



D. M. Ferry & Co., Detroit. 



D. Landreth Seed Co., Bristol, Pa. 



Hogg & Lytle, Toronto, Ont. 



N. B. Keeney & Son, Leroy, N. Y. 



Several of the seedsmen's exhibits 

 were quite large and well arranged, that 

 of Leonard Seed Co. being notably com- 

 plete. Some of these firms had from 

 three or four to half a dozen repre- 

 sentatives on the ground. Other houses 

 having no exhibits but represented by 

 salesmen were: Rogers Bros., Alpena, 

 Mich.; Manitowoc Seed Co., Manitowoc, 

 Wis.; J. H. Allan Seed Co., Sheboygan, 

 Wis.; Tewles & Brandes, Milwaukee, 

 Wis.; Northern Wisconsin Seed Co., and 

 others.

Although the continued rain is doing 

 no harm at all, but much good, it tends 

 to retard nurserymen somewhat from 

 shipping, and orchardists from plant- 

 ing trees, and seed growers from plant- 

 ing seeds. However, the nursery stock 

 IS commencing to pour in from different 

 nurseries, and the orchardists put them 

 in the ground until such time as the
