THE OKLAHOMA LAV. 



According to a report from Guthrie, 

 O. T., James M. T. Wright and David 



B. Wright, of Hartford City, Ind., 

 doing business as the Wright Nursery 

 Co., on October 19, filed suit against 



C. A. McNabb, secretary of the Okla- 

 homa board of agriculture, and his 

 bondsmen, O. A. Mischer and J. H, 

 Wheeler. They also ask a writ of 

 mandamus to compel McNabb to issue 

 a license to them to sell nursery stock 

 in Oklahoma. They allege that on Oc- 

 tober 13 they deposited the required 

 fee to obtain a license, that a receipt 

 for the money was given, but that Mc- 

 Nabb refused to issue a permit until 

 they agreed not to sell to certain par- 

 ties in Oklahoma; that these certain 

 parties were heavy buyers, whose busi- 

 ness McNabb was trying to corner for 

 a concern in which he was interested. 

 Various other allegations of miscon- 

 .duct in office are made. 



ROCHESTER, N, Y. 



At Rochester, a city which now boasts 

 a population of 200,000, there are some 

 fine florists' stores, those of Keller, Wil- 

 son and Salter Bros, being especially 

 worthy of notice because of their en- 

 terprise, growth and ability. The new 

 store of Salter Bros, has a frontage of 

 nearly 100 feet. The opportunity for 

 display is taken advantage of to the 

 limit. Fortunately for the firm, they 

 have an extensive plant to draw upon 

 ^or the daily supply required. 



The great reputation Rochester has 

 achieved as a nursery center is illus- 

 trated at this season by the enormous 

 shipments of trees for the fall deliver- 

 ies. It would take many pages to list 

 even the firms that work from this cen- 

 ter, sending their agents, numbering 

 many thousands, to every part of the 

 United States and Canada.

ARSENICAL INSECTICIDES. 



The Fruit World, an English publi- 

 cation, says that Kedsie's compound 

 is rapidly superseding Paris green as 

 a cure for leaf -eating insects; the 

 recipe for mixing is as follows: White 

 arsenic, one pound; washing soda, four 

 pounds; water, one gallon. The ma- 

 terials are boiled until dissolved, 

 which takes only a few minutes. 



When making up for use, add forty 

 to fifty gallons of water to a pint, and
