Harlan P. Kelsey is back at his desk 

 at Salem, Mass., after seven months of 

 war work. 



Fire at the Continental Nursery of 

 M. J. Van Leeuwen, Franklin, Mass., re- 

 cently destroyed $3,000 worth of stock. 



Nurserymen find the labor situation 

 rapidly turning in their favor. While 

 wages still are high, it is possible, in most 

 places, especially in the vicinity of cities, 

 to get all the men needed. 



The Nieuw Amsterdam is due at New 

 York with a considerable cargo of Dutch 

 and Belgian nursery stock, also quantities 

 of gladiolus bulbs. The Noordam will 

 sail from Rotterdam within a day or two 

 with another considerable cargo of hor- 

 ticultural products. 



Nurserymen should be interested in 

 the proposal to plant trees as memorials 

 to heroes of the war. It is possible that 

 every county in every state in the Union 

 will adopt the idea as the best expression 

 of gratitude to those who made the su- 

 preme sacrifice for their country. 



S. R. De Boer, city forester, of Denver, 

 Colo., stated before a meeting of the 

 Denver Society of Ornamental Horticul- 

 ture that one of the needs of Denver is a 

 greater variety of trees and suggested that 

 nurserymen be advised to plant oaka, hard 

 maples, lindens, honey locusts, birches, 

 alders, larches, Ohio buckeyes and syca- 

 mores. 



The bonding of nurserymen to force 

 them to guarantee the delivery of trees 

 true to variety, as provided in a bill now 

 before the Utah legislature, was unani- 

 mously disapproved by the Utah State 

 Horticultural Society at a recent meeting 

 in Salt Lake City. Resolutions will be 

 sent to the lawmakers protesting against 

 the passage of the measure. . 



It is evident that nurserymen in Hol- 

 land, England, France and Belgium will 

 make great effort to ship as much stock 

 as they can to the United States before 

 June 1, to get in ahead of the quarantine. 

 In the first two countries especially, but 

 also in France, there are considerable 

 quantities of stock grown specially for 

 the American trade, but the interim be- 

 tween the end of the war and the date the 

 quarantine becomes effective is too short 

 for getting much of it to market.
