ATTENTION, FERN BUYERS 



At this time you are no doubt considering buying or placing your orders for Ferns. We desire to call your attention to the 

 fact that we specialize in ferns, and are prepared to supply you with as fiae stock as can be grown. Why not prove to your 

 own satisfaction what the duality of ferns bought from us will give? While the production capacity of our plant has been 

 trebled during the past year, and we are in a position to take care of a large volume of business, yet we would advise the large 

 buyers to protect themselves by placing orders early. No orders accepted for delivery on 3-iach stock prior to March 1st.

views on readjustment and expansion. 

 Expansion, lie said, slioiild be in tlie 

 demand, not the supply. And it' this 

 expansion in demand was lirouglit about, 

 readjustment would not be necessary. 

 The address was accorded strict atten- 

 tion by ;i larjie number of members and 

 an earnest discussion broke out upon 

 its conclusion. The next speaker was 

 Edward .T. Forest, of tlie bureau of in- 

 ternal revenue. C'liic.ngo, who gave tlie 

 members first-liand information as to 

 liow to make our tlieir income rejtorts. 



Defends Quarantine 37. 



Dr. K. F. Kellerman. of tlie Federal 

 Horticultural Board, Wasliington, D. C, 

 was llic first si>eaker of tlie afternoon 

 session, February l(i. He referred to 

 the greiit benclit the bureau of i)lant 

 industry liad been to the nurserymen in 

 fighting jiests of various kinds and ]>ro- 

 motiiig means ol ini]iro\iiig the nursery 

 jM'odiicts. He sjioke of the much-abused 

 (Quarantine ;J7 and made an able defense 

 of the ](riiieiiiles it stood for. It liad 

 Jieen said tliat it raised a ('hinese wall 

 to exclude all foreign jdants wliatever. 

 This was, lie said, distinctly untrue. 

 Provision bad been iiiadi' for bringing 

 liro])agating stock in and this has not 

 even ])eeii limited to new varieties. ''It 

 has been said.'" Dr. Kellerman con- 

 tinued, ''tliat America has been im- 

 porting for years from Kuropt' and 

 cverytliing in the way of a jiest or in- 

 sect that could Vie imjiorted has been 

 met with; that we liave nothing new to 

 fear from Europe. Exjicrts disagree 

 with tliis tlieory and records of foreign 

 ])lants show that e\en from regions 

 where ve liave been importing for a 

 century we ha^■e o]ijioituiiities to get 

 new diseases and pests. AVe have only 

 about one-fifth of \\h;i1 \ve iniglit

 of packing. Practically nothing tliat 

 was formerly imjiorted. Dr. Kellerman 

 reiterated, could not be grown here with 

 little extra trouble or time. The in- 

 dustry is gradually changing from an 

 imjiorting to a growing one. 



Referring to the criticism that the 

 (|uarantine lias been subjected to. Dr. 

 K(dlcrman said. • ■ ( 'onimemlat ion, if y<)u 

 think it noiessary. criticism, if you 

 think it f.air. and argument, if you dis 

 ;igree with lis, are good for both of us, 

 but don't )n';id <'iie \\:i\' and point .'in 

 other." 



Forty four nursery firms were repre 

 sented at the mooting, which was well 

 attended from start to finish. The room
