A New Disease of Roses. 



Bringing to Tacoma some forty promi- 

 nent nurserymen of California, Wash- 

 ington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana and 

 British Columbia, the convention was 

 one of much interest. The sessions 

 all were open to the public and at- 

 tendance was encouraged, with the idea 

 of educating the public in the problems 

 of the trade and in the proper plant- 

 ing and care of stock. 



Among those present was J. A. Bal- 

 mer, of Cle Elum, Wash., who called 

 attention to a new disease of roses tliat 

 came to him on a shipment from a Cali- 

 fornia rose grower now out of busi- 

 ness. Hard, knot-like bunches appeared, 

 he said, wlierever a growth was cut and 

 also on the roots, some of tliem attain- 

 ing the size of a walnut. The matter 

 was regarded as so serious that a spe- 

 cial committee was appointed to deal 

 with it, consisting of M. McDonald, of 

 Orenco, Ore.; George C. Eoeding, of 

 Fresno, Cal.; J. A. Balmer, of Cle Elum, 

 Wash., and R. A. Stadllialter, of Seat- 

 tle, W^ash. 



Reports of the Year. 



The first session, following an ad- 

 dress of welcome by A. B. Howe, presi- 

 dent of the Commercial Club, where the 

 meetings were held, was devoted to re- 

 ports of officers and committees, in the
