Chicago. First Vice-Prehident; M. H. Duryea. New York. Second Vice- President: Kendel. Cleveland. Sec- retary and Treasurer. Annual convention. Hotel Rock-mere. Mass. June 20 22, lyu. Chicago.—Prices on the board of trade, June 7, were noted as follows: "White clover, from $22 to $30.— "Vaughan's Seed Store reports their plantings of young gladiolus bulbs as making a remarkably good growth for this early date. Recent California seed crop reports Indicate poor growth and probable short crop of sweet peas, but it is too early to give very definite, reliable in- formation. Radish and lettuce prom- ise a crop somewhat under the aver- age. Onion looks letter and if the ?weather does not turn too hot a good yield can be expected. Visited Chicago : Howard M. Earl, of W. Atlee Burpee & Co., Philadel- phia, Pa., and party spent June 5 in the city, en route to California, leaving in the evening; Ant. C. Zvolanek, on his way to the Pacific coast and his annual sweet pea inspection tour in that section. Mr. Zvolanek is taking up lilies and freesias and he is confi- dent of showing results in seedling lilies in two years. A large pink seedling is the most promising of the freesias. Beginning July 5 and continuing during the months of July and August, the facilities of the Seed Laboratory of the Bureau of Plant Industry, U. S. Department of Agriculture, Washing- ton, D. C, will be available, as far as space permits, to anyone wishing to become familiar with the practical methods of seed testing. There will be an opportunity to observe the labora- tory methods of testing for germination and mechanical purity, including the recognition of crop seeds and the com- moner weed seeds.
