WATER ANALYSIS NEEDED. 



We have a number of bay trees and 

 for the last two or three years have 

 had considerable trouble because of the 

 trees losing their leaves. They are 

 brought in before the frost each fall 

 and placed in a house to themselves, 

 which is run at a temperature of from 

 40 to 45 degrees at night and from 55 

 to 60 degrees during the day. They are 

 not shaded in any way and are in tubs 

 containing rotten peat. We do not al- 

 low them to get dry and cannot detect 

 any scale or other disease.

bay trees are kept during the winter 

 appear to be such as would keep the 

 plants in health, but the leaves sub- 

 mitted for examination seem, in most 

 cases, to have turned yellow from the 

 tips down toward the stem, while the 

 yellow portion finally turns brown and 

 dies. This seems more like a case of 

 malnutrition than disease. This might 

 be caused by some foreign substance in 

 the water. An analysis of the water 

 supply might furnish a solution of the 

 difficulty. w. H. T. 



Eutherford, N. J.— The Bobbink & At- 

 kins place is a veritable beehive of ac- 

 tivity. To one who remembers it in its 

 early stages, this institution is a most 

 striking demonstration of the possibil- 

 ities of the business, when worked by 

 men such as form the heads of this firm 

 Unfortunately, right at the beginning 

 of the rush, the genial Fred L. Atkins 

 was forced to step out for a rest, putting 

 a double load on Mr. Bobbink, who 

 seems equal to the occasion. Mr. At- 

 kins is expected to return soon. Com- 

 menting on the embargo, Mr. Bobbink 

 observed that whether or not it is en- 

 forced, it certainly has been responsible 

 for large importations, so that the an- 

 ticipated increase in the planting of es- 

 tates will be carried out to the satis- 

 faction of all concerned.
