of the leading Durseryinen of this coun- 

 try in getting'^an accurate count from 

 each nursery of the number of diseased 

 trees in at least one row of every vari- 

 ety in all fields where the trees are all 

 dug in one season. Such data are de- 

 sired from every locality where apple 

 trees are grown. Printed blanks with 

 directions for tabulating such data have 

 been provided and these will be sent to 

 all who request them. Address the Mis- 

 sissippi Valley Laboratory, St. Louis, 

 Mo. 



PARK REPORTS. 



By all odds the finest annual publica- 

 tion of the parks of America is the book 

 issued at St. Louis, the volume for 

 1904-5, containing the report of Com- 

 missioner Robert Aull, being just to 

 hand, eleven months from the date of 

 the close of their fiscal year. The bind- 

 ing is leather, gold embossed. There is 

 an embossed title page and thirty-four 

 pages carry beautiful half-tone views 

 from photographs taken in the parks. 

 It takes only thirty-two pages of text 

 to carry all the commissioner and the 

 superintendent had to say of the ways 

 in which they spent the year's appro- 

 priations of $152,500. The printing is 

 in the best style of the typographical 

 art. There are large maps in color 

 showing Forest park as it was before 

 and during the World's Fair and as it 

 is planned to reconstruct it. The pub- 

 lication is a credit to the city and the 

 people who got it out, but one cannot 

 help a feeling of surprise at Commis- 

 sioner Aull's plea that the people 

 awaken to the "urgent needs of the 

 park system." Spending so goodly a 

 sum as this report must have cost, on 

 something of so little real benefit to 

 the taxpayers, would warrant the sup- 

 position that they had ''money to 

 burn. ' '
