CATALOGUE OF PLANT NAMES. 



[Goncluded (roni page 22.1 

 can Peony Society, the American Car- 

 nation Society, the Chrysanthemum 

 Society of America and the American 

 Dahlia Society all similarly provide 

 lists of varieties and classifications 

 which may be accepted as official and 

 authoritative. 



The resulting work, which is being 

 prepared in a fashion to make it avail- 

 able even for pocket use in the field as 

 well as for desk use in catalogue prep- 

 aration, will be essential to everyone 

 who conducts transactions in plants. 

 Not only will the florist, the nursery- 

 man and the seedsman need to have this 

 book, but the landscape architect, the 

 pharmacist, the dealer in plant products, 

 the editor and the libraries must alike 

 refer to it for the accurate and definite 

 names, both scientific and common, of 

 the vast array of plants which make 

 the land worth living in. 



Future Registration. 



A part of the plan worked out by the 

 subcommittee involves a continuing re- 

 lationship in which the federal govern- 

 ment is participating through the mem- 

 bership on the subcommittee of the 

 United States botanist, Dr. Coville. It 

 is realized that there must be a regis- 

 tration point at which new varieties 

 may be recorded and that proper 

 changes in names must also be referred 

 to such central point to be passed upon 

 and used, if it seems wise, in subsequent 

 publications of the ofiicial catalogue. 

 It is no more expected that this direc-

tory of plant names (for that is what 

 it is) is final and definite than it could 

 properly be expected that a directory 

 of Washington or Cincinnati or Pitts- 

 burgh issued in 1921 would be perma- 

 nently accurate. Probably editions 

 every three or five years of the official 

 catalogue will be required in order to 

 keep pace with the growth of com- 

 mercial horticulture in America, that 

 growth having only just begun. 



Support Necessary. 



The support of "the Society of Amer- 

 ican Florists, together with that of the 

 other organizations that have joined 

 in this work, has been sufficient to pay 

 such of the expenses of the work as 

 those doing it have not personally ab- 

 sorbed. The official catalogue can con- 

 sequently be published at its mere me- 



chanical cost, instead of being charged 

 for as similar technical directories are 

 charged for, in connection with the 

 whole cost of the work. Priced for pre- 

 liminary orders at $3.50 per copy, this 

 book, which will probably exceed 500 

 pages, would ordinarily cost, as pub- 

 lished by technical organizations, from 

 $8 to $iO per copy. The difference is 

 contributed in the work of the men who 

 have self-sacrificingly given their time 

 to the project and in the support of the 

 organizations involved. 



That support should be continued 

 without diminution by this organiza- 

 tion. The price of the book has no 

 relation to the maintenance of the or- 

 ganization necessary to send it out. For 

 that reason your committee asks that 

 the appropriation heretofore made be 

 continued.
