^TT WHILE there is a general shortage of Palms, 

 ^'J* particularly of Kentias, due to the fact that 

 practically no supplies were received by such growers ' 

 as depend almost exclusively on imports from Belgium, 

 aild from present appearance it is not likely that the 

 situation will be changed this fall, we are pleased to 

 jstate our supplies have not been affected by this 

 embargo,'and we are carrying our usual full line of sizes of 

 the usual Dreer quality ; but as the general scarcity is cer- 

 tain to create an increased demand, we recommend you to 

 cover your requirements as early as possible. If y(h. are 

 hot ready to accept immediate delivery, let us book your 

 jjrder and we will set aside and reserve your stock and make 

 delivery at any time between now and October 15. ^

Oeorge W. Hess, superintendent of 

 the United States Botanic Gardens, has 

 just returned from an extended visit 

 at the home of Senator Bobert F. Brous- 

 sard, at Iberia, La. 



Plans are being perfected for the 

 opening of the educational botanical 



garden of Frederick, Md., September 2. 

 The collection of flowers and plants 

 to be placed in this garden is made up 

 in part of contributions from the trade. 

 Elmer Sanders, who is employed at 

 the^ botanic gardens, met with another 

 accident when the horse which he was 

 driving took fright at the breaking of 

 its bit and in jumping forward caused 

 him to fall between the shafts. Charles 

 Stieflel, of the gardens, is spending a 

 two weeks' vacation with friends at 



Colton, Md. J. H. Van Zandt is spend- 

 ing a month's vacation at Lazie, Tenn. 

 Among the visitors last week were 

 Mr. and Mrs. Fred H. Meinhardt, of 

 St. LoQis; I. Bosnosky, representing H. 

 F. Miehell Co., Philadelphia, and Ar- 

 thur Niessen, of the Leo Niessen Co., 

 Philadelphia. C. L. L.
