VINES ON TREES. 



I should like to know if vines, such 

 as Begonia venusta, yellow jasmine 

 and wisterias, will kill trees that they 

 climb on. We have them here that 

 cover the tops of the tallest pine trees. 

 I cut them back several years ago to 

 within twenty feet of the ground, but 

 now they cover the trees again and if 

 they do no harm I do not want to cut 

 them back. A. B. — ria. 



There is an important point which 

 enters into the answering of this ques- 

 tion and it is whether the effect of the 

 vines or a fine specimen tree is the ob- 

 ject" most desired. 



While it will take a long time for a 

 vine to kill a tree, unless the vine is 

 kept well wiMiin bounds it will eventu- 

 ally ruin "it^4s a fine specimen. 



If for any reason a tree starts to let 

 up on its vigorous growth and it is not 

 desirable to remove it entirely, then 

 vines can be allowed to grow up into it 

 to serve the purpose of creating a nat- 

 ural effect. M. P. 



BORERS IN 



~^ 



LLOW TREE. 



I am sending a piece of the inside of 

 a willow tree which was blown down 

 sometime last winter. This tree was 

 planted near a summer cottage by the 

 bank of the Detroit river and must have 

 been 50 years old. Until last winter it 

 was a beautiful tree, showing no sign 

 of disease, but after it had fallen I dis- 

 covered that the inside of it was all 

 like the piece which I am sending you. 

 I thought perhaps you could tell me 

 what was the matter with it. 



T. L. B.— Mich. 



The wood sent was completely per- 

 forated with the tunnels of borers, 

 which frequently attack those and other 

 trees and shrubs. C. W. 



TIME TO SOW ASTER SEED. 



I am planning to grow Vick's Late 

 Branching Asters on a large scale and 

 wish that you would tell me when to 

 start the .seeds. We usually have a late 

 fall here, near the lake. 0. J. — Wis. 



WOOD LABELS 



Tlie seeds of Vick's Branching asters 

 should be sown not later than June 1; 

 a fvw davs earlier would be better.

City's First Iris Show Coming. 



The first iris show ever held in Minne- 

 apolis will take place in June in the 

 lobby of the Northwestern National 

 bank under the auspices of the Amer- 

 ican Iris Society and with the assist- 

 ance of the Northwestern Peony and 

 Iris Society. Many commercial and 

 amateur growers have given evidence 

 of a lively interest in the coming event 

 and are arranging for exhibits. Medals, 

 ribbons, a sweepstakes cup and other 

 aw.nrds are being arranged for. Infor- 

 mation concerning entries may be ob- 

 tained from Professor Leroy Cady, of 

 the University of Minnesota Farm 

 School.
