AMHERST, MASS. 

 Henry D. Fearing, in his 85th year, 

 is one of the best gardeners in town, 

 winning prerainms at the annual fair 

 and making his extensive grounds a 

 charming place. But the oldest gar- 

 dener is George Cutter, who is 92. He 

 delights in his roses and raises the 

 best of sweet corn and other vegeta- 

 bles. 



Dr. George E. Stone, professor of 

 botany at M. A. C, and for many 

 years the Amherst tree warden, is 

 about to publish a bulletin on shade 

 trees which will be illustrated with 

 pictures of typical trees. He believes 

 that trees in New England have been 

 seriously injured by the drouth of the 

 seven years previous to this year. 

 This drouth, he thinks, surpasses

 during the past 250 years. But 

 he will rely most upon the evidence to 

 he found by examining the rings in 

 the stumps of the trees recently cut 

 in the primitive forests of New Eng- 

 land which had been growing for 200 

 years. These trees grew but little in 

 years of drouth and much in rainy sea- 

 sons and registered the fact by the 

 concentric rings to be counted on the 

 stump. Great elms and large pines 

 are selected for the purpose.
