 argument that the reorganization plan 

 adopted at the Detroit convention, as 

 soon as it is in full operation, will great- 

 ly increase the value of membership. 



HORTICULTURAL IMPORTS. 



While almost every steamer from a 

 European port brings a few bags of 

 seeds, the principal imports in all hor- 

 ticultural lines come via Rotterdam. 

 The Zaandyk, which docked at New 

 York last week, had these consign- 

 ments, according to the manifest filed 

 at the New York customhouse:

MUNICIPAL CONTRACTS. 



Because the Oklahoma statutes pro- 

 vide that shade trees planted in streets 

 of towns and cities shall be paid for 

 by special assessments against the abut- 

 ting property, the Supreme court de- 

 cided the other day that a nursery could 

 not enforce a contract made with a 

 town where the contract did not con- 

 template compliance with those stat- 

 utes (15.3 Pacific Reporter 628). 



The nurseryman sued for $510, the 

 price of 3,000 locust trees planted 

 along the streets of the town, under a 

 contract whereby the town agreed to 

 pay that amount in this manner: "All 

 money collected from the property own- 

 ers for the trees up to July 1, 1912, at 

 which time there shall be a town war- 

 rant issued for the balance remaining 

 unpaid." The trial of the case resulted 

 in a judgment favorable to the nursery- 

 man, but on the town's appeal to the 

 Oklahoma Supreme court the judgment 

 was reversed, the higher court saying:
