The German growers have a disap- 

 pointing crop of aster seed this season. 



Burpee & Co., Philadelphia, still are in 

 doubt about offering any of their sweet 

 pea novelties this season, because of the 

 short crops. 



Darwin tulips certainly are enjoying a 

 great advance in popularity. Many more 

 could have been sold this season had they 

 been in stock when called for. 



The Indiana Tomato Seed Co. has been 

 incorporated at Nabb, Ind., with a cap- 

 ital of $15,000, by H. E. Grant, J. N. 

 Grant and E. V. Grant. 



It is the quite general case that grass 

 seeds this season are plentiful and garden 

 seeds quite the opposite, with the flower 

 %Md situation mixed. 



There is no section of the country in 

 which the seed trade is developing faster 

 than in the south. In the south seed 

 selling knows no seasons and never 

 ceases. 



Before the convention of the Califor- 

 nia nurserymen at Oakland, November 7, 

 Lester L. Morse delivered an address on 

 "The Seedsman's View of the Nursery 

 Business. ' ' 



Practically all seedsmen now print 

 the disclaimer beneath the salutation on 

 their letter-heads, in accordance with the 

 decision of the Illinois Supreme Court 

 brought to their attention by The Eeview. 



Cold storage valley pips are said to 

 be pretty well cleaned up and there is a 

 short crop this year because of too long 

 continued rains in the Hamburg growing 

 district, so valley is likely to be ^od 

 property this season. 



A new seed business is being started 

 on South State street, Jackson, Miss., 

 under the name of the Taylor Seed Store. 

 The proprietors are S, J. Taylor and his 

 son, Swepson E. Taylor. The younger 

 man will act as manager. 



Many seedsmen will give the greater 

 part of their attention, as usual, to 

 bouquet green and holly for the next five 

 weeks. Small quantities of green are 

 already coming forward. It looks like 

 another season of light supply and high 

 prices, although the quantity will, of 

 course, be determined more than anything 

 else by the date of the arrival of winter 

 in the green districts. Holly probably
