AMERICAN ASSOCUTION OF NURSERYMEN. 



_Pre8^. W. Hale, Knoxvllle.Tenn.: Vice-Pres., 

 V. A. Weber, St. Louis ; Sec'y, Geo. C. Seagrer, 

 Rochester, N. Y.; Treas., C. L.. Yates, Rochester, 

 N. Y. The twenty-elgrhth annual convention 

 Will be held at Atlanta, Ga., June. 19M. 



Jas. M. Burch, for many years pro- 

 prietor of the King Nursery, Stanford, 

 Ind., died May 8, of pneumonia after 

 only four days' illness. 



The Great Western Eailway has or- 

 dered large quantities of evergreens from 

 nurseries in Iowa and will plant them 

 along the right of way as snowbreaks. 



The American Peony Society will hold 

 its annjial meeting in (.-onnectioii with 

 the exhibition of the New York Horti- 

 cultural Society June 8 to 9, at Bronx 

 Park Botanic Garden. 



G. H. HUBER, the nursery agent of 

 Petoskey, Mich., has sold seventeen car 

 loads of stock this spring. The princi- 

 pal item is 68,000 peach trees. It has 

 all been planted in northern Michigan. 



E. 8. Welch, Shenandoah, la., writes: 

 "Our season's business has been up to 

 expectations in most lines and shows a 

 satisfactory increase over last year, be- 

 sides cleaning up closer. Almost every- 

 thing being in storage and with our ex- 

 ceptional shipping facilities, side track 

 and electric lighted buildings we were 

 able to handle all shipments promptly 

 in any kind of weather. Our trade on 

 ornamentals continues to improve and we 

 are planting still heavier for the future. 

 Have made our usual large plant in 

 other lines. Trade for next year is 

 promising and prospects are good in this 

 section for a large fruit crop. Our sur- 

 plus this spring was mostly small grade 

 fruit trees. The shipping season has 

 continued very late on account of the 

 backward spring." 



AUGUSTA, GA. 



The past season has been a very satis- 

 factory one with the nurserymen and 

 florists in this section. The demand for 

 hardy ornamentals is largely on the in- 

 crease. The demand for bedding plant' 

 has been gradually falling off for sev- 

 eral years, as the majority of the people 

 desire hardy shrubs. In this congenial 

 climate we have an immense lot of these 

 plants, and by judicipus selections, quan- 

 tities of bloom can be had from Marcb 

 until November. The demand for bulbs, 

 such as hyacinths, narcissi and tulips, 

 is growing rapidly. The cut flower busi- 

 ness is growing, and good stock brings 

 remunerative prices, roses, carnations, 

 chrysanthemums and violets being the 

 leaders in the order named. Palms, 

 fancy-leaved caladiums and grafted or- 

 anges are in good demand. Cannas have 

 had their day. All nursery stoek is prettv 

 well eleane<l up. but many nurserymen 

 were caught late in the season on 

 peaches; there was an over-production 

 and many orders were countermanded ; 

 some buyers lost their heads and over- 

 bought. This promises to be a great 

 year for the peach orchards in Georgia. 

 This state tvill break it's record this 

 year. The peach crop is estimated at 

 3,000 cars; that will mean some lively 

 hustling during June and July.
