 better than he was last autumn.

 the Elizabeth Nursery Co., Elizabeth, N.

 vestments. 



There has not been a year for a long 

 time when the wholesale growers of nurs- 

 ery stock in Tennessee were so nearly sold 

 out this early in the season as they are 

 this year. Everything is selling better 

 than apples. There promises to be a 

 surplus of apple trees this spring. Orna- 

 mentals are practically all sold at the 

 present time.

Officers Elected. 



The tenth annual meeting of the Con- 

 necticut Nurserymen's Association was 

 held at Hotel Garde, Hartford, Conn.,

 to order at 11:25 a. m, by President W. 

 E. Campbell. After the president's ad- 

 dress of welcome had been responded

 read and approved. The report of the 

 treasurer, showing the finances of the

 was rendered, his books audited and 

 report accepted. The reports of the

 and answered questions relative to their
