William A. Peterson, Chicago, puts 

 the general report in a few words : * ' We 

 have as much business as we have help 

 to handle," says he. 



Martin L. Davey, of the Davey Tree 

 Expert Co., Kent, O., was elected to con- 

 gress from the Fourteenth Ohio District 

 November 5. He is a Democrat. 



There is enough stock in the nursery 

 trade this season, and doubtless as much 

 as will be required in spring, but the la- 

 bor shortage will be apparent in next 

 year's production. 



French nursery stock will come over 

 in considerable quantities during the next 

 few months and there appears to be fair 

 prospect that Holland will resume export- 

 ing in the near future. 



One of the difficulties encountered by 

 British nurserymen is in procuring pack- 

 ing material for the fall shipments. The 

 use of straw, paper and burlap all re- 

 quire government permits. 



HOLLAND OROWEBS OBOANIZE. 



To Meet New Conditions. 



With improved prospects for the im- 

 portation of the usual autumn and spring 

 shipments of nursery stock from Hol- 

 laiid as the result of the changed mili- 

 tary and submarine situation, the cir- 

 cular to American buyers recently issued 

 bj the Holland Plant Exporters' Asso- 

 ciation will be of special interest: 



"According to information received 

 from members of the Holland Plant Ex- 

 porters' Association, you are buying 

 Holland nursery stock from members of 

 this association. I beg to inform you 

 that the majority of the Holland grow- 

 ers and exporters of nursery stock have 

 formed an organization comprising in 

 its membership growers and exporters 

 in Aalsmeer, Boskoop, Dedemsvaart, 

 Gouda, Naarden, Oudenbosch, Yeendam, 

 etc. 



"The necessity for this organization 

 is evident. Entirely new conditions pre- 

 vail in all countries since the war. Con- 

 sequently it will be impossible to extend 

 credit for so long a period as was cus- 

 tomary before the war. It will be out 

 of the question also to sell at the old 

 figures, as the cost of producing nursery 

 stock has nearly doubled. 



"The Holland growers therefore have 

 followed the example of the American 

 Association of Nurserymen and have 

 formed an organization to protect the 

 interests of its members and with the

object of adjusting the plant trade to 

 the new conditions. It is also the desire 

 of the members to assist their customers 

 to reduce unfair competition on the 

 part of slow and fault-finding buyers 

 and to abolish the practice of sending 

 goods from Holland to public auctions. 

 Some steps in this direction had been 

 taken already, but so far only the Hol- 

 land nurserymen dealing in America 

 had agreed not to send goods to auctions, 

 whereas under this organization all auc- 

 tions in all countries where a regular 

 plant trade with Holland exists, are for- 

 bidden. 



"In order to attain this purpose, the 

 members have adopted the following 

 rules, with a heavy penalty for their
