The American Forestry Association 

 last week at Boston formally presented 

 France, Belgium and Great Britain 35,- 

 000,000 tree seeds for reforestation in the 

 devastated areas and to replace English 

 forests cut down during the war. 



NEW ENGIiAND ASSOCIATION. 



Annual Meeting at Boston. 



The New England Nurserymen's As- 

 sociation will hold its ninth annual con- 

 vention Tuesday and Wednesday, Janu- 

 ary 27 and 28, at the New American 

 House, Boston, Mass. The present 

 ofScers of the association are as fol- 

 lows: President, C. B. Burr, Manches- 

 ter, Conn.; vice-president, Charles 

 Adams, Springfield, Mass.; secretary, B. 

 M. Wyman, Framingham, Mass., and 

 treasurer, V. A. Vanicek, Newport, B. I. 

 The officers and A. E. Bobinson, Lex- 

 ington, Mass.; E. F. Coe, New Haven, 

 Conn., and C. E. Dow, Bar Harbor, Me., 

 constitute the executive committee. 



This convention promises to be of 

 particular interest and value, since, in 

 the opinion of the officers, the associa- 

 tion has taken a new lease of life. Last 

 year's convention was considered the 

 best on record. The visitors to it from 

 other associations were decidedly en- 

 thusiastic about it. The convention of 

 1920 is expected to eclipse that of 1919. 



The association welcomes visitors 

 from other associations and they will be 

 accorded the privileges of the floor.

AS THE BUD, SO THE FBUIT. 



In the propagation of citrous fruits, 

 buds should be selected not only from 

 trees of known bearing proclivities, but 

 even from limbs whose bearing proclivi- 

 ties are known, announces the United 

 States Department of Agpriculture in 

 connection with its bud-selection work 

 in California. Trees are exceedingly 

 common, say the specialists, which in 

 the main bear fruit of desirable type.
