The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



Mabch 15, 1906. 



be successful against the San Jose scale 

 when properly carried out. As com- 

 pared with the lime-sulphur wash, the 

 next three mentioned are much more ex- 

 pensive, and the two oils, unless very 

 carefully applied, are more likely to 

 injure the treated plants. They are, on 

 the other hand, more certain to effect 

 nearly or quite complete extermination 

 of the scale. 



One's choice of method must there- 

 fore be governed by availability, special 

 needs, and experience. In the main 

 these remedies, including the lime-sul- 

 phur wash, are winter treatments and 

 may be employed at any time when the 

 trees are in dormant, leafless condition. 

 The weaker oil-water mixtures and the 

 emulsions may, however, be used in the 

 growing season. The treatments enu- 

 merated are all for trees in the orchard. 

 Nursery stock badly enough infested to 

 require such treatment is best destroyed. 

 For the general disinfection of nursery 

 stock the hydrocyanic-acid-gas treatment 

 is the standard and only satisfactory 

 means. 



FREE NURSERY STOCK, 



J. W. Stubenrauch, a Texan, reports 

 that the government distribution of 

 nursery stock is progressing along the 

 same lines as has brought the free-seed 

 distribution into disrepute. "A few 

 days ago, in a veritable snowstorm with 

 a cold north wind, our rural carrier 

 seemed to be extra heavily loaded. Ask- 

 ing the cause was told, 'An overdose of 

 free seeds and plants.' When opening 

 a parcel that was directed to myself, be- 

 hold what I found: Two Lenoir and 

 two Herbemont grape vines, all the way 

 from Washington by mail, worth at the 

 most, if they were needed, 10 cents. 

 Jerusalem, what a gracious government! 

 No wonder we farmers are prospering 

 when we get such gifts. Now, the 

 Herbemont grape is one of the oldest we 

 have. Nurseries sell them at 5 cents 

 apiece by the 100. The Lenoir is not 

 worth standing room in our section of 

 country. I discarded them as worthless 

 twenty years or more ago." 



HARTFORD. CONN. 



The regular meeting of the Florists' 

 Club was held Friday evening, March 

 9, President Huss in the chair. The 

 annual election of officers took place 

 with the following result: President, 

 J. F. Huss (third term) ; vice-president, 

 Joseph Vidbourne; treasurer, Eobert 

 Scrivener; secretary, Alex. Gumming. 



President Huss exhibited two plants 

 of a new type of balsam impatiens and 

 two fine specimens of the new hybrid. 

 Cineraria stellata, for which he was 

 awarded a certificate of merit. 



The club as a body recorded its re- 

 gret at parting with its late efficient 

 secretary, C. N. Kuedlinger. Mr. Kued- 

 linger has been appointed forester on a 

 large estate near Minneapolis, Minn., 

 and will leave for the west in a few 

 days. As a proof of the esteem in 

 which he has been held the club mem- 

 bers and other friends presented him 

 with a gold chain and appendage and he 

 leaves Hartford with the best wishes oj 

 the entire horticultural community. 

 Alex. Gumming, Secretary.
