All these trees are to be planted in 

 different parts of the estate. Every- 

 thing else connected with the outdoor 

 development is done on an equally 

 gigantic scale. This department is un- 

 der the direction of Superintendent 

 D. J. Smith. We shall have occasion 

 to say more about the work as it prog- 

 resses, later on. On such establish- 

 ments as this depends much of the fu- 

 ture trend and advancement of Ameri- 

 can gardening, especially when, as in 

 this instance, the owner is deeply at- 

 tached to and loves everything con- 

 nected with horticulture. 



SEVEN REASONS FOR FALL 

 SPRAYING. 



One of the most interesting little 

 booklets that has come to our notice 

 in many a day, is one entitled "The 

 Whys and Wherefores of Pall Spray- 

 ing," issued by the B. G. Pratt Co., 50 

 Church street, New York City, manu- 

 facturers of "Scalecide." In about one 

 hundred words Mr. Pratt has given 

 reasons for fall spraying and each 

 reason is sane and sound. Mr. Pratt's 

 arguments are backed up by the opin- 

 ion of several successful orchardists 

 and nurserymen, also the Bulletins is- 

 sued by the Experiment Stations of 

 several states. 



One or more of these booklets will 

 be promptly mailed upon request to 

 the B. G. Pratt Co. 



VEGETABLE GROWERS' CONVEN- 

 TION. 

 There will be a Vegetable Growers' 

 Convention at Grand Rapids, Mich., 

 Sept. 27, 28 and 29, and an interesting 

 little announcement is out telling of 

 the attractions it will have for market 

 gardeners and greenhouse men. This 

 live city is a center in producing vege- 

 tables, both under glass and in the 

 open, and visitors here will have 

 plenty to see and hear and no doubt 

 there will be a number who will go 

 over from Chicago and other large 

 cities. Programs can be secured by 

 writing S. W. Severance, secretary, 

 508 Walker Bid., Louisville, Ky. 



ROYAL HORTICULTURAL 

 SOCIETY. 



At the meeting on July 19 Pearson 

 & Son of Lowdham, Notts, were given 

 an award of merit for sweet pea El- 

 freda Pearson, deep pink, and a simi- 

 lar award went to Dobbie & Co. for 

 Earl Spencer, scarlet with trace of 

 yellow. 



Messrs. J. Waterer & Son, Bagshot, 

 showed a weeping form of the com- 

 mon holly and Perry's weeping form 

 of that shrub. Another good thing 

 shown by them was Taxus fastigiata 

 Standishii — a golden leaved variety.
