Pago, Des Moines. la., Pres.; L. L. May, St. Paul, Minn., First Vice-Pres., C. E. Kendel, Cleveland,O., Seo'y and Treas. Twenty-third annnai convention, June, 1905. Visited Chicago: John Lindholm, Minneapolis, Minn. The titles of the two views of the Fos- gate seed farms, shown in this depart- ment of our last issue, were inadvertently transposed. HoLi-y so far received shows that because of the very mild weather which has prevailed to date the berries have not yet ripened as they do if weather is seasonable. The Bureau of Plant Industry of the United States Department of Agriculture has issued a bulletin (No. 51, part 5), giving the legal and customary weights per bushel of seeds. The following are the officers of the James Vick's Sons Company, seedsmen, at Rochester, N. Y.: Chas. H. Vick, presi- dent; Fred B. King, secretary; Wm. T. Fonda, treasurer; P. K. Nott, superin- tendent. Fall bulb sales have been very good this season, and on many lines there has been a good clearance. Crocus is cleaned up, so also are Scilla Sibirica and many named tulips. Single mixed hyacinth stock, except I ed, have sold well. Some houses report named hyacinths are on hand and say they have moved slowly. Others report well sold up. Bouquet green this season is of unusually good quality, rainy and rea- sonably cool weather prevailed during the early picking in the green district. Reports the past week indicate continued good weather and fair increase in stocks everywhere. Probably seventy-five per cent or better of an average output has been secured and rather easier jobbing rates prevail. The hunting season being on, the pickers are much more timid about going into the woods, and picking is lessened forty or fifty per cent on this account. Albany, N. Y. J.
