the entrance and pick out what they 

 want, with the aid of the catalogue and 

 their own powers of observation. 



This metliod of buying garden shrubs 

 and trees has become so popular since 

 it has been instituted that the grounds 

 of the nursery company are thronged 

 on Saturday and Sunday, and even dur- 

 ing the week, by those who motor down 

 to Niles. 



The grounds of the company have 

 been thoroughly cleared and laid out, 

 and a new section devoted to fruit 

 trees has been installed. Here is carried 

 a quarter of a million fruit trees at all 

 times, and selection of any quantity 

 can be made right on the grounds. This 

 is an entirely new feature, for in the 

 past the California Nursery has not 

 dealt in fruit trees in such large quan- 

 tities. This nursery has always been 

 noted for its ornamental plants, of which 

 it is said to liave the largest stock in 

 the state, but it is now able to deal in 

 fruit trees to any extent necessary. 



The nursery grounds have been laid 

 out anew, and many new sections have 

 been laid off for the propagation of 

 shrubs and ])lants. There have been 

 large demands upon the stock of this 

 company this season and it has been 

 found necessary to go into the work of 

 replenishing and keeping up this stock, 

 wliich means more i)ropagation. Ex- 

 tensive plans liave been made for new 

 propagation this season. 



Tlu' California >;urs('ry is becoming 

 one of the yreat sliow places of Ala- 

 meda coviTity, ami visitors from all over 

 the world ,iii' iidw being sliown just 

 what can lie ddiic in tlie glorious cli- 

 mate of Alameda couiitv. 



SCALE ON FRUIT TREES. 



1 am scinlin;: you a sani|il(' ))rancli of 

 an infcstcil fruit tree. Please let me 

 know wliat till' troiil)le is ;ind what 

 causes it. A. ]'. — Mich. 



Tlie liraiicli t'(>r\vaided was heavily 

 crusted with San .lose scale. If all 

 parts of your t lec or trees are covered 

 in ]iroi)<>iti(in, T am afraid their tenure 

 of life will lie brief, unless you can 

 treat tlieni sjii'cdily. A liiiie-sul]iliur 

 sjiray, a]>}plied wliile the tr<'es are dor- 

 mant, will kill this scale, as will any 

 of the soluble oils dissolved in water at 

 an average ratio of one j)art of oil to 

 twenty jiarts of water. T'se a spray 

 nozzle which will make a fine, misty 

 spray and be sure to wet every portion 

 of bark. It is getting a little late now 

 for a dormant sjtray, but, if your plants 

 are badly affected, better spray now, 

 even at the risk of scorching some ad- 

 vanced buds, rather than let the scale 

 kill your trees entirely. Dormant 

 sprays can be ajiplieil safely from No- 

 venilier until April 1 in your latitude. 

 December and March are gooil months 

 to apjily it. C. W.
