oides has a smoother bark that scales ofiE, 

 something like sycamore. Catalpa big- 

 nonioides is native on the south Atlantic 

 coast, while speciosa is found native 

 ojily in the Mississippi valley froni 

 southern Indiana westward into Missouri 

 and Arkansas. 



Catalpa seeds vegetate nearly as 

 (jnickly as corn. The young plants are 

 nearly as tender to frost as young to- 

 ni.'xto plants; hence the seeds should not 

 b(; sown until danger from frost is past. 

 We usually sow toward the latter part of 

 May or first part of June, in finely pul- 

 verized, rich, light soil. If the seeds 

 are not planted too thickly plants will 

 attain two to three feet the first year, 

 ready for the timber plantation the fol- 

 lowing spring. A pound of Catalpa spe- 

 ciosa contains about 20,000 seeds and a 

 pound of Kaempferi about 50,000 to 

 00,000 seeds. E. Y. Teas.

The Agricultural Experiment Station 

 at the University of Arizona has issued 

 a bulletin, in which it urges the planting 

 of trees and shrubs suitable to climatic 

 conditions on the approaching Arbor 

 day. 



It is reported that seedling pecan trees 

 have been delivered that had been cut 

 and permitted to sprout so as to look as 

 if they were budded. F. H. Burdette, of 

 the Louisiana Experiment Station, says 

 he has seen it, but no nurseryman can be 

 found who knows anything of it.
