Tennessee nurserymen say business 

 has been better this season than they 

 iiad anticipated, and there is little sur- 

 plus stock in that part of the country 

 at present. Collections have been slow, 

 but are coming in faster now. There 

 will be little change in the acreage 

 iplanted this season from that of last. 



A BILL has been introduced in the 

 Iowa legislature by Representative Cra- 

 ven, of Jasper county, to regulate the 

 sale of nursery stock so that buyers may 

 be certain that they are getting stock 

 true to name. Mr. Craven says he "ex- 

 pects to make it possible for a fruit 

 grower to get the kind of trees he wants 

 to buy." A similar bill was introduced 

 last session by Senator Malmberg, also 

 •of Jasper county, which was lost in the 

 •closing rush.

The Brigham Nursery Co. and the In- 

 termoimtain Nursery Co., both of Brig- 

 ham, Utah, have been compelled to throw 

 thousands of apple trees on the waste 

 pile because of the lack of a market for 

 them in their territory. Increased plant- 

 ings of apple trees in the last few years 

 have, it is thought, resulted in an over- 

 supply and consequent poor market. Of 

 peach stock, on the other hand, there 

 appears to be a shortage. 



It is estimated that in the immediate 

 vicinity of Geneva, N. Y., there are over 

 2,500 acres devoted to the growing of
