AMERICAN ASSOCUTION OF NURSERYMEN. 



Pres.. N. W. Hale, Knoxvllle, Tenn. : Vice-Pres., 

 P, A. Weber, St. Louis; Sec'y. Geo. C. Seaeer, 

 Rochester, N, Y.; Treas., C. L. Yates, Bochester, 

 "•.„'■ ,"''® twenty-eighth annual convention 

 will be held at Atlanta, Ga., June, 1904, 



Visited Chicago: C. L. Yates, Roch- 

 ester, N. Y,, treasurer American Associa- 

 tion of Nurserymen. 



W. W. Thomas is establishing a large 

 nursery at Jonesboro, 111. He is planting 

 250,000 trees this spring and has a large 

 force at work. 



F. D. TowNSEXD and Bryant Fleming, 

 landscape architects, announce that they 

 hare opened an office at 1326 Prudential 

 building, Buffalo, N. Y. 



The Cannon Bros., nurserymen, Detroit, 

 Jlinn., have been succeeded by Cannon 

 & Anderson, O. D. Cannon having sold 

 his interest to A. W. Anderson. 



Less landscape work than in recent 

 seasons will be done this year in the 

 summer residence neighborhoods in the 

 vicinity of Xew York ; "Wall street is 

 still dull, 



A RECENT issue of the Des Moines Capi- 

 tal contains a half-page iUustrated write- 

 up of Shenandoah, la., as the nursery 

 center of the west and of E. S. Welch 

 as proprietor of the leading institution 

 there. 



Western nurserymen find comparative- 

 ly little sale for the arbor-vita; as a 

 hedge plant, but in the east they are in 

 good demand, several recent orders call- 

 ing for considerable stock in the larger 

 sizes. 



Catalpa Bungei is a curious, round- 

 headed dwarf tree which attracts nearly 

 every one. It is quite hardy and top 

 grafted on tall stems it has in certain 

 cases taken the place of the bay tree in 

 formal work. 



There was a time when the platting 

 of new additions to the city of Chicago 

 served to make good business for nursery- 

 men, but this season will be like its im- 

 mediate predecessors, "nothin' doin' " 

 in that respect, Brooklyn seems to be 

 the theater of the real estate speculators' 

 operations just now. 



The nurserymen in the states contigu- 

 ous to the great lakes are fearful of much 

 damage to stock by reason of the long 

 and severe winter. They also fear a 

 short shipping season because of a late 

 spring. There was a short digging sea- 

 son last fall and most firms have only 

 one-third or one-half as much stock as 

 usual in the cellars. Orders are coming 

 in rather slowly and on the whole it does 

 not look like a good season.
