 23 to 26, 1913. 



Packing houses on the nursery of E. 

 Moody & Sons, Lockport, N. Y., Were 

 burned July 3. It is supposed that 

 tramps started the blaze. 



"Wm. a. Peterson, proprietor of Peter- 

 sou Nursery, Chicago, is in Yellowstone 

 with his son, while Ben Gage, Mr. Peter- 

 son's right hand man, is in New England 

 with his family. 



The oflSces of the Albany Nurseries, 

 Inc., of Albany, Ore., have been moved 

 from the Schmitt-Hunt building to the 

 fourth floor of the new First National 

 Bank building. 



The tariff bill was reported to the 

 Senate July 11 in the exact form in 

 which the trade paragraphs were printed 

 in The Review of June 26. It is thought 

 there will be no further changes before 

 the bill becomes law. 



Henry Meuschke, proprietor of the 

 Saxonwald Nursery, Castle Shannon, Pa., 

 and his wife were passengers on the big 

 Hamburg-American steamship, Imperator, 

 when it started on its maiden voyage June 

 25. This is Mr. Meuschke 's first visit to 

 his native land. Saxony, which he left over 

 forty-five years ago. 



IN IOWA. 



"We have jiist closed a most satis- 

 factory season's business, being the 

 largest in our history, ' ' says C. E. Gard- 

 ner, treasurer of the Gardner Nursery 

 Co., Osage, la. . " We ha.ve had to 

 greatly increase our plantings," he 

 added, "and among other things we 

 have thirty-eight acres set solidly to 

 the new everbearing strawberries. We 

 have been working with them for the 

 last five years and our prophecy is that 

 these new everbearers will take the 

 place of the common, once-a-year-fruit- 

 ing varieties within the next few years. 



"We' enjoy reading the nursery 

 notes in The Florists' Review and 

 would be glad to see that department 

 of your valuable paper made larger." 



iBtJTY ON APPLE SEEDS. 

 ITnder the present tgriflE liiw apple 

 seeds pay a duty of 10 cents per pound; 

 which is equivalent to $4 per bushel. 

 Under the new bill as it came from the 

 House the duty would have become ten 

 per cent ad valorem, which would have 

 been an extremely sharp reduction, ai 

 the present rate is equal to from thirty 

 to forty per cent, depending on the 

 market price in Europe. Under the bill 



VVC arc in a t'OM IIOII tij^t wlU be decidedly attractive to any. 

 one who is BUYINQ TO SBLL AOAIN. If you are in the market for anything 

 from Norway Spruce to the finer varieties of Evergreens, send in your lists and w« 

 will give you a figure that will make you money.

as it now stands before the Senate, the 

 rate will be 5 cents per pound, or a 

 reduction of just fifty per cent in the 

 duty to be paid, $2 per bushel instead 

 of $4. 



The Senate bill is considered as quite 

 likely to become the law, and there are 

 those who look upon this reduction in 

 duty as particularly unfortunate at this 

 time. A heavy plant was made last 

 year, resulting in a surplus of seedlings, 

 and any reduction in the cost of French 

 seed it is thought will tend to increase 

 the plant at a time when a reduction 

 Jn the proi^H^tion of apple ^jees is to be 

 '"^aesired, rafher than ^n inttttAse.
