Revision of the duties on nursery stock 

 by the Senate finance committee will be 

 found on a forward page of this issue. 



Some interesting notes about Paul C. 

 Lindley, vice-president of the American 

 Association of Nurserymen, and of the 

 companies which he directs, will be found 

 on a forward page of this issue. 



Each year nursery firms note a large 

 number of respectable orders for florists. 

 But they are not nearly so numerous as 

 they would be if more in the trade saw 

 the opportunities for profit in a side-line 

 of planting home grounds in spring and 

 fall. 



The business formerly operated under 

 tlic name of George F. Verhaleu, at 

 Scottsville, Tex., is now the Verhalen Nur- 

 sery Co. S. J. Verhalen is general man- 

 ager, George F. Verhalen is secretary 

 treasurer, and R. P. Verhalen, superin 

 tendent. 



To further the "Plan to Plant Another 

 Tree" campaign, J. A. Young, of Aurora, 

 secretary of the Illinois State Florists' 

 Association, is furnishing a column of 

 ••irboricultural information for newspapers 

 of the state one day a week. The value 

 of the material makes it welcomed by. the 

 editors. 



John 0. Wistek, president of the 

 American Iris Society and secretary of 

 the American Rose Society, expects to 

 sail for Europe in May to represent the 

 American Iris Society at the international 

 iris conference, in Paris. During his trip 

 lie will visit Switzerland, Italy, Holland 

 and England, to secure material for a 

 new lecture on European gardens, which 

 will be illustrated with views of public 

 and private gardens in these countries. 

 Mr. Wister plans to make tours during 

 the coming fall and winter, giving sev 

 t'ral different lectures.

 Unit«d States has given notice that be- 

 cause of the prevalence of the white 

 pine blister rust (Cronartium ribicola 

 Fischer), no 5-leaved pines — white pine, 

 western white or silver pine, sugar pine, 

 limber pine, white-bark pine, bristle- 

 cone pine, fox tail pine, Mexican white 

 pine, Swiss stone pine, Himalayan or 

 Rhotan pine, Korean pine, Japanese 

 white pine, Cliincse white pine, Balkan 

 pine — and no currant or gooseberry 

 plants shall be moved or allowed to be 

 moved interstate from the state of 

 Washington, unless the establishment 

 and enforcement by the state of Wash- 

 ington of control measures in coopera- 

 tion with the United States Department 

 of Agriculture shall be deemed ade- 

 <|uat(' to effect the control and prevent 

 the spread of the white ])ine blister rust 

 with respect to the following counties 

 lying west of the crest of the Cascade 

 mountains, designated as a white pine 

 Iilister rust infected are:i: Clallam, 

 Clarke, Cowlitz, Grays Harbor, Island, 

 Jefferson, King, Kitsap. Lewis, Mason, 

 Pacific, Pierce, San .luaii, Skagit, 

 Skani;inia, .Snohoinisli, Tliiirston, Wah- 



kiakum and Whatcom. The quarantine, 

 known as No. 54, became effective 

 March 15, 1922. 



In case such control measures shall 

 be so established and enforced by the 

 state as to the infected area, the re- 

 strictions of the quarantine shall be 

 limited to the interstate movement of 

 the pines and currant and gooseberry 

 plants from the area designated as in- 

 fected.

 1,000 invitations for Easter to his 

 friends and customers in the form of a

 way of advertising locally. 



W. B. Cole is having the busiest 

 sjding sea.son trade in years. The tran- 

 sient trade is exceptionally heavy.

Competition in the nursery business 

 in this locality seeins,.t«r^timulate ac- 

 tivity and progressr-'l'he demand in this 

 particular line has always been more 



than the supply. If it were not for 

 competition, many would have slumped 

 long ago. 



The demand for delphiniums has 

 been heavy this year and also for 

 Funkia undulata variegata. Both of 

 these are used extensively by florists 

 and are coming more into favor every 

 year. T. J. M. '

Marshall Makes Nation-Wide Survey. 



My experience in orcharding has been 

 confined to the Missouri river section, 

 and this territory is probably not more 

 favorably situated, with reference to 

 natural advantages for successful or- 

 charding, than is most of the territory 

 covered by the membership of this asso- 

 ciation. Government statitisties show 

 that during the period between 1910 and 

 1920 the number of bearing apple trees 

 in the territory mentioned decreased
