According to Mr. Eingier, Eob- ert Newcomb will join the traveling force of the W. W. Barnard Co. on his return from the California exposition. ' BUSINESS EMBARRASSMENTS. Sante Cruz, Caa.—The Santa Cruz Bulb & Plant Co., which of late has been a heavy advertiser in certain trustful trade papers and, indeed, was represented in two of them in their issues of August 28, is in the hands of its creditors. Attachment against the company, which originally was con- ducted by Alfred Mitting but more re- cently by his son, Ernest Deroo Mit- ting, amounts to about $1,000, but re- tarns are said to be not yet all in. The attaching creditors are bulb grow- ers in the vicinity of Santa Cruz, who had turned their freesia and calla bulbs over to the Mittings to be sold. Some of these growers had received small payments on account, but many are said to have received nothing and prospects for realizing on any claims are thought to be poor, as there are practically no assets and bankruptcy proceedings are said to be in contemplation. Attach- ment proceedings were begun about Au- gust 21 and both Mittings, father and son, are said soon to have left Santa Cruz and their present whereabouts is said to be unknown to their creditors. Alfred Mitting, the father, will be re- called as once before having been en- gaged in the bulb business at Santa Cruz and subsequently in the nursery 'business at Holland, Mich., where he traded as the Berrydale Experiment Gardens.
