HORTICULTURE, 



NEWS NOTES. 



It is estimated that $500.(Mi(i (ianiage 

 has been done to fruit trees in the 

 Arkansas valle>' liy the snow storm of 

 April 17. 



A. J. Stahelin of Sand Hill, Mich., 

 will this year start to grow violets. 

 Detroil hopes he may be successful as 

 a local violet supply is needed. Fred 

 Pautke of Grosse Point will erect one 

 house 10x200 ft., also for violets. 



The 200th anniversary of the birth 

 of Llnnjeus occurs on May 23 of this 

 year. Celebrations commemorative of 

 the work of the great botanist will 

 be held in Upsala, Sweden, and many 

 other places throughout the world. 



The grounds about the William 

 McKinley Memorial at the Stale 

 Capitol, at Columbus, Ohio, are being 

 beautified by a liberal planting of 

 trees and shrulis. Messrs. C. Y. 

 Heikes & Co., of Troy, Ohio, secured 

 this contract. 



James Taylor of Mt. Clemens, Mich., 

 is moving his old residence nearer to 

 the greenhouses to be ised as an 

 otfice to be connected with the green- 

 house plant proper, with another 

 greenhouse to be used for a general 

 line of plants. 



It is reported that the lic.^nse or tax 

 imposed by the Province of Quebec 

 and by British Columbia on non-resi- 

 dent commercial travellers represent- 

 ing firms or corporations having no 

 place of business in the dominions, 

 has been repealed, except in the cases 

 of representatives of liquor and cigar 

 firms. Prince Edward Island, now- 

 ever. retains the fee of ?20. 



Eight hundred cars of fruit, accord- 

 ing to experienced orchardists, will 

 be shipped out of Lewlston, Idaho, this 

 season, a yield unprecedented in this 

 section. Seven hundred cars of this 

 amount will be peaches, while the re- 

 maining hundred cars will be divided 

 among the famous Vineland cherries, 

 apricots, apples and smaller fruits. 

 Much of this fruit has already been 

 sold in advance by the growers, and 

 the only difficulty now confronting 

 them since the chance of a hurtful 

 frost is past, is the fact that pickers 

 are scarce. 



PERSONAL, 



The many friends of James Murray, 

 gardener on the Henry Clews estate, 

 Newport, R. I., will learn with- regret 

 of his serious illness in the hospital.
