bers at the convention at San Fran- 

 cisco. 



The United States Court of Customs 

 Appeals, in deciding the case of the 

 United States vs. Hermann Boker & Co. 

 last week, held that hedge shears are 

 dutiable at the rate of thirty per cent 

 ad valorem. This assessment had been 

 made by the collector of the port at 

 the time of entry. The importers 

 claimed that they were entitled to free 

 entry as agricultural implements, and 

 their contention was upheld by the 

 Board of United States General Ap- 

 praisers. Upon coming to the higher 

 court, it was said that the records pre- 

 sented to it were barren of facts save 

 for the appraiser's report and the sam- 

 ple. The meaning of the word agri- 

 culture is dealt with to a considerable 

 extent, following which the court ar- 

 rives at the opinion that hedges are 

 purely ornamental whether on the farm 

 or about the city home; they do not 

 contribute to the subsistence of man 

 or beast, directly or indirectly, and 

 whether or not the shears should come 

 in free depends upon whether or not 

 they are chiefly used for trimming pure- 

 ly ornamental hedges and shrubbery. 

 The court found them to be so used 

 and held them dutiable at thirty per 

 cent, upholding the assessment of the 

 collector and reversing the Board of 

 Appraisers. c. L. L. 



PROVIDENCE, E. I. 



The Market. 



Preparations for Memorial day and 

 an unusually heavy demand for bedding 

 plants have been the means of keeping 

 the local market from the doldrums dur- 

 ing the last week. Roses are in good 

 supply. Valley is abundant, a good sup- 

 ply of outdoor stock keeping prices well 

 down. For the first time, lilacs have 

 been quite gener^y displayed this sea- 

 son and have sold fairly wWl, although 

 the prices have been low. The whites 

 have outsold the purples. Magnolia
