3800 Rockwood Ave., 



INDIANAPOLIS, IND. 



experimental plantings are producing 

 fruit comparable in every particular to 

 that borne by the parent trees. If the 

 parents were large yielders or had other 

 desirable characteristics, so have the 

 progeny. If the parent trees were bar- 

 ren or relatively so, the progeny is 

 found to be unprofitable. 



The performance records of individ- 

 ual trees on which departmental special- 

 ists have been working for some years, 

 as well as cooperative records secured 

 by the growers themselves, are serving 

 an exceedingly important purpose, in 

 that they are used as a basis for choos- 

 ing the trees used as a source of bud- 

 wood by the bud supply department of 

 the California Fruit Growers' Exchange. 

 This department furnishes buds practi- 

 cally at cost from record trees to all 

 growers and nurserymen who are de- 

 sirous of securing them. 



DULUTH, MINN. 



The Maxket. 



The weather was much colder last 

 week, with business brisk. Good, clean 

 stock came in and there was plenty of 

 everything. Eoses were fine stock. Car- 

 nations were plentiful and of good qual- 

 ity. A good many callas came in, but 

 Easter lUies were scarce. Valley was 

 more plentiful last week. Violets, free- 

 sias. Paper White narcissi and stevia 

 were much in demand. Some good 

 plants of cineraria appeared last week, 

 but were affected by the cold weather; 

 the bottom leaves curled up, making a 

 number of the plants unsalable. Fu- 

 neral work was brisk all the week.
