NEWS NOTES. 



President Foulk of the American 

 Nursery Co. asks us to state that the 

 announcement made January 1 to the 

 •effect that the business established by 

 F. W. Kelsey in 1S75 would be con- 

 tinued by that gentleman is incorrect, 

 as that business was turned over to 

 the American Nursery Co. on January 

 1, 1908, and remains their property. 



An automatic bird scarer known as 

 the "Demon" has been introduced with 

 success in the fruit-growing districts 

 of Australia. Said to save crop, money, 

 time and temper; also, we presume, 

 the birds — which is, in a way, of equal 

 Importance. The device might be 

 adopted by small fruit growers in this 

 country to advantage, if it does what 

 is claimed for It. 



The Haskell Implement and Seed 

 Company of Boston, which was organ- 

 ized two years ago by A. P. Webster, 

 formerly of Auburn, and with which 

 the George B. Haskell Co., of Lewiston, 

 is allied, has consolidated with the 

 Ames Plow Co., of Boston, which has 

 been in existence for over 50 years. 

 The name of the Lewiston store will 

 be changed to the Haskell Implement 

 Seed Company and its capital will be 

 doubled. W. H. Peckham, formerly 

 with the company in Lewiston, will be 

 the manager of the new concern.
