Obituary. 



Robert M. Snow. 

 Robert M. Snow of Springfield, 

 Mass., died recently. He was formerly 

 located in Greenfield and had for 

 many years carried on a florist busi- 

 ness. 



dropped and Mr. BYuck engaged in 

 landscape gardening. Suffering from 

 diabetis for a long time past, he went 

 to Europe two years ago and had 

 some relief after using the waters in 

 Carlsbad, but the malady returned 

 and his present search tor relief at 

 Hot Springs did not prove successful, 

 to the sorrow of all local florists. 



P. J. Berckmans. 

 P. J. Berckmans of Pruitland Nur- 

 series, Augusta, Ga., died on Novem- 

 ber 8, aged 81 years. Mr. Berckmans

 He came to America in 1851, first lo-

 later going to Georgia, where he es-

 known. Mr. Berckmans was the lead-

 president of the Pomological Society 

 for many years, and vice-president of 

 the International Pomological Society. 

 He was active in all movements for 

 the advancement of horticulture in 

 the South.

 three years ago this specialty was
