Free., E. W. Klikpatnck, McKioney, Tex.; 

 Vlce-Pres., C. L. Watrous. Des Molnea; Secy, 

 OfO. C. Seager, Rocheuter; Treas.. C. L. Yates, 

 Rochester. The 2yih annual convention will be 

 held at West Baden, Ind., June, 1U05. 



The cornuses nearly all do well in 

 shady situations. 



The liquidambar and the white oak are 

 two large trees which do well in low., 

 damp places. 



The nursery industry in the United 

 States represents an investment of near- 

 ly $60,000,000. 



The demand for the better grade of 

 stock, both fruit and ornamentals, is 

 steadily on the increase. 



There are 16,000,000 peach trees in 

 Georgia approaching the bearing stage, 

 and still planting goes merrily onward. 



John Gee, foreman for the Robinson 

 nursery, Blooraington, III., fell from a 

 train near Joliet, 111., August 18, and was 

 severely injured. 



William Gibbs, foreman of the Phoe- 

 nix Nursery Co., Bloomington, 111., has 

 made an extended visit to Arizona, Utah 

 and Colorado this season. 



The osmanthus is an uncommon hardy 

 evergreen which deserves to be more 

 widely planted. The foliage resembles 

 the holly, though smaller and not so 

 stiff, and it transplants easily. 



The American Pomological Society 

 has appointed committees to make a 

 study of the various phases of fruit 

 growing for which special advantages are 

 afforded by the exhibits at the World's 

 Fair. The work of the commitees will 

 be published in pamphlet form. 



Mansfield, Pa. — Mrs. Robert Cross- 

 ley has a fine business and 16,000 feet 

 of glass. Carnations are largely grown, 

 with some roses, palms, ferns and bed- 

 ding stock. Considerable space is also 

 given to lettuce. 



Anoka, Minn. — Hail at 4 o'clock on 

 the morning of August 21 broke 600 

 lights of 16x16 double strength glass in 

 the greenhouse of the Pratt-Ford Com- 

 pany. The houses were just planted to 

 carnations and the stock was cut up quite 

 badly. The Kimball greenhouses lost 

 about 400 lights. Carnation plants looked 

 fine in this section and those which es- 

 caped the hail give excellent promise.
