 Win be held at Atlanta, Ga.. June, I90i. 



The American Association of Nur- 

 serymen is in sessioH this week at At- 

 lanta, Ga, 



Painesville, O. — John Brick has gone 

 to Aurora, 111., to enter the employ of 

 the Aurora Nursery Co. 



The eighteenth annual convention of 

 the American Association of Cemetery 

 Superintendents will be held at Chicago 

 August 23 to 25. 



The "Wisconsin State Horticultural So- 

 ciety will hold its annual summer meeting 

 at Lake Geneva June 29 and 30. There 

 will be an exhibition of strawberries and 

 flowers. 



Chase Bros., of Huntsville, Ala., are 

 getting their new nursery near Mercury 

 in first-class shape. They have built a 

 road which will permit heavy teaming 

 out of the property in bad weather. 



Following the convention at Atlanta 

 this week the nurserymen will visit the 

 famous Georgia peach orchards, includ- 

 ing those of Hale, the Berckmans Co. 

 and others, traveling on a special train. 



At the meeting held at New Haven, 

 Conn., last week the New England Asso- 

 ciation of Park Superintendents voted to 

 change its name to American Association 

 of Park Superintendents. Officers elected 

 were: President, W. S. Egerton, Al- 

 bany; secretary, John W. Duncan, Bos- 

 ton ; treasurer, J. H. Hemingway, Worces- 

 ter, and several vice-presidents. 



In writing a friend, C. S. Sargent, of 

 Arnold Arboretum, Boston, said: "We 

 had the most disastrous winter that I 

 can remember. Deciduous-leaved shrubs 

 and trees seem to have suffered more 

 than evergreens this time, although prac- 

 tically every rhododendron bud in this 

 part of the world is killed or injured; 

 azaleas, on the other hand, being all 

 right. We have lost many shrubs which 

 have been growing for twenty years at 

 least, and have never suffered before. It 

 will take a long time to get over the 

 effects of such a winter." 



LILACS NOT FLOWERING. 



W^ill you please tell me through tho 

 valued columns of your paper the reason 

 why a purple lilac bush five years old 

 does not bloom f It was a rooted sprout 

 from a large tree that blooms profusely 

 every year. It is in a shaded position 

 in our front yard, but the old tree is in 

 the shade just as much with the same soil, 

 etc. The tree seems to be' thrifty and 

 healthy. Have seen trees all over town 

 younger and smaller than this one bloom- 

 ing. A. C. T. 



The fact that our correspondept 's lilac 

 grows well but fails to bloom is conclu- 

 sive proof that the shady location is the 

 cause of this. Probably if left until it 

 reached a considerable size it would 

 bloom to some extent, but never so well 

 as in an open sunny spot. Lilacs to 

 flower well must be grown away from all

shade. We would advise our correspond- 

 ent to remove the plant carefully this 

 fall, say the first week in October, to a 

 sunny location where there is good loam. 

 Give it a dressing of well rotted manure 

 once a year and it will flower as satisfac- 

 torily as any of his neighbor's plants. If 

 he needs a quick growing shrub for his 

 shady location let him plant Lonicern 

 Tatarica, or L. Morrowi, or some of the 

 strong growing viburnums or snowballs.
