. The American florist : a weekly journal for the trade. Floriculture; Florists. 3 74 The American Florist. No ^7, HRe 3^®^ il7ac)e /«;v/. SEED TR.^DE ASSOCIATION. J. C. Vauohan, Chicago, president; A. t,, Don, New York, secretary and treasurer. The eleventh annual meeting at Chicago, June, 1S93. Appli- cations for membership should be addressed to Wm. Meggatt, chairman membership committee, Wethers6tld, Conn. The Condition of the onion seed mar- ket would not indicatemuch change since our last issue. Invoices coming in from California do not show quite the antici- pated shortage, still the California grow- ers evidently have little or no surplus this year; this, together with the fact that little or no onion seed was carried over by seedsmen last year, would indi- cate that prices may certainly be main- tained at as high or higher figures than those last indicated in these columns. Whites, T:arly Red Globe, Red Wethers field, and possibly Globe Hanvers, will all be scarce. Scott County, Iowa, reports little, if any, home grown seed. The Seedsmen's League, which sometime since fixed a minimum retail price on onion seed for 1893, are now considering the advisability of making higher figures. The Steele Brothers Co., L't'd, at Toronto has been changed in name, and will hereafter be conducted under the name and style of The Steele, Briggs, Marcon Seed Co., L't'd. Covert, who ran for Congress against John Lewis Childs in the Queens County district, beat the latter by 2,500 ma- jority. If you have not already ordered acopy of our new directory and reference book you are missing a good thing that you ought to have. Remember that it con- tains not only a list of those in the trade but a vast amount of reference matter of great value to every reader of the Flo- rist. The reference lists of roses, chrys- anthemums and carnations are alone worth the price of the book. Please mention the American Florist every time you write to an STOCK THAT SELLS WELL! LILY OLT
