Mr. Green. Yes, sir. 



The Chairman. And we are much 

 nearer now than we were when we re- 

 ported the bill originally? 



Mr. Green. Yes, unquestionably. 



The Chairman. I think after a while 

 we will find you will come in here, as 

 some people did the other day on an- 

 other bill to which they were opposed 

 some years ago, and all advocate a 

 proposition. 



Mr. Green. I think so. 



Mr. Richardson. I can tell you what 

 you could expect if you got a commis- 

 sion. You would expect this committee 

 to take the verdict of that commission 

 and act on it. 



Mr. Green. No; I would not expect 

 that of any congressional committee. 

 I would think that the report of that 

 commission would receive due weight. 



Mr. Hubbard. You would expect 

 them to agree with you, would you not, 

 substantially, and if so, they would sim- 

 ply come here and say what you would 

 say, would they not? 



Mr. Adamson. You would like to 

 know that the commission has your 

 views when you parted, would you not? 

 That is generally the situation. 



Mr. Green. Yes. 



Mr. Eichardson, You would give the 

 commission your views, and you would 

 expect them to carry them out. 



Mr. Adamson. Nobody wants a com- 

 mission except to adopt his views. 



Mr. Green. Yes. We have great con- 

 fidence in them, because we believe our 

 views are right. 



Mr. Eichardson. You see, we have 

 seen all that demonstrated with other 

 commissions, and we are tired of them. 



THE DAVIS SEED CO. 



The incorporation of the John B. 

 Davis Seed Co., Sturgeon Bay, Wis., 

 was reported in this column a few 

 weeks ago. The following is from a 

 recent issue of the Sturgeon Bay Advo- 

 cate, where it appeared under the head, 

 "Shipbuilders Engage in Seed Busi- 

 ness " : 



"A new seed company that will bid 

 for the patronage of the public and 

 good will of the farming community in 

 this county the ensuing season is the 

 John B. Davis Seed Co., recently incor- 

 porated under the state law. The or- 

 ganization is composed of John B. 

 Davis, president and general manager; 

 August Eieboldt, vice-president; Jo- 

 seph Wolter, treasurer, and Jos. M. 

 Schauer, secretary. Each one of these 

 individuals is well known in the busi- 

 ness life of our city and is counted 

 among its most stable and reliable 

 citizens. Mr. Davis, the head of the 

 concern, has for a number of years 

 been identified with the W. W. Bar- 

 nard Co., and is therefore well known 

 to the farming community of the 

 county. The new company will make 

 its headquarters in the building and 

 premises formerly occupied by the W. 

 W. Barnard Co., the latter having with- 

 drawn from the county entirely. The 

 company are seedsmen, growers of
