The Rorists' Review 



Sbptbubbb 4, 1919. 



f ul, ' ' suggested by Mrs. Ella Grant "Wil- 

 son, was adopted by the association. 

 The exhibit of the Davey Tree Expert 

 Co., of Kent, O., showing diseases and 

 pests that infest trees, attracted con- 

 siderable attention. 



Luncheon Speeches. 



The luncheon tendered by Congress- 

 man M. L. Davey, of Kent, O., on the 

 last day of the convention, was an il- 

 lustration of the get-together spirit 

 advocated by the host. Mr. Davey in 

 his speech carefully pointed out the 

 necessity of elevating the profession, 

 getting into closer touch with the em- 

 ployer, offering inducements to young 

 men to take up the trade and follow 

 in the footsteps of the veterans who 

 created and brought the calling to its 

 present high position, and of cooperat- 

 ing with the trade in its demand for the 

 moderation of Quarantine No. 37. As- 

 suring his hearers of early success, if 

 persistent steps were taken, Mr. Davey 

 also advocated that the association be 

 used as a clearing house, so to speak, 

 where gardeners and owners of estates 

 would be brought in direct contact with 

 each other. 



Superintendent of Schools J. H. 

 Francis, of Columbus, O., in a stirring 

 talk, showed the vital importance of 

 educating the young in the practical 

 ethics of gardening and demonstrated 

 how the profession could be of the 

 greatest assistance. 



The address of Sydney R. Wilson, 

 vice-president of the Advertising Club 

 of the World, was listened to with the 

 greatest attention. The main theme of 

 his speech was advertising. The point 

 was taken that the gardener could ad- 

 vertise his profession to his employer 

 and the public at large. 



Washington, D. C. — Senator Moses, of 

 New Hampshire, has introduced a bill 

 in Congress for the extension of the 

 National Botanic Garden, to take in the 

 park areas and also unimproved land to 

 the west and south of the present site, 



Norwalk, O.— E, J. Peat has sold his 

 greenhouse business to B. F. Farring, 

 who will continue it. After resting a 

 short time, Mr. Peat will look up a new 

 location, for he says he cannot keep 

 away from greenhouses after thirty-five 

 years in them.
