In condemnation proceedings relative 

 to the widening of a street at Washing- 

 ton, D. C, an attorney for tlie McLean

 ent's home grounds was valued at -4^-11.- 

 000. .Appraisers were appointed from

Addressing the New England Nursery- 

 men 's Association. E. Fred Rowe, of tlie 

 McFarland organization, said: "The 

 mistake is made, in preparing catalogues 

 for the public, in thinking that the pur- 

 chasers know as mucli aliout technical 

 matters connected with nurseries and 

 with the growth of jdants and shrubs 

 as the dealers do themselves. The pub- 

 lic for the most part is ignorant of 

 technical methods and the matter in the 

 catalogues should be prepared with this 

 lack of knowledge in view."
