It is reported that the Waterloo Nurs- 

 ery Co., Waterloo, Wis., is planning to 

 remove its headquarters to Fall Creek, 

 Wis. 



Augustine & Co., Normal, 111., report 

 a fine spring business, prolonged by the 

 continued cold weather. They have 

 shipped Sudduth pear trees to South Af- 

 rica, Australia, Japan and other coun- 

 tries. 



The U. . S. Department of Agriculture 

 has just issued a bulletin of forty-two 

 pages devoted to a discussion of 

 * ' Spraying for Apple Diseases and the 

 (Codling Moth in the Ozarks. " As it is 

 stated that Ben Davis is the predominat- 

 ing variety in the orchards affected, dis- 

 criminating consumers of apples will 

 doubtless think the publication of the 

 pamphlet a sad waste of puoiic funds, 

 but if the bulletin does not show how to 

 improve the flavor of the Ben Davis, it 

 tells how the merchantable percentage of 

 the crop may be largely increased. 



SEASONABLE SUGGESTIONS. 



Currants and gooseberries encuml)er the 

 ground if they are not kept free of 

 worms. 1 know of nothing so unsightly 

 as rows of currant and gooseljerry 

 bushes denuded of their foliage and with 

 starved fruit sorrowfully clinging to their 

 branches. Timely applications of pow- 

 dered hellebore will keep them in good 

 condition and render them capable of 

 maturing good fruit. The early morn- 

 ing, when the foliage is moist, is the best 

 time to apply the powder; one or even 

 two applications may not suffice. 



California privet grown into shapely 

 specimens of medium size will pay for 

 the little extra care and trouble required, 

 by the price easily obtained for such 

 stock. To grow them as suggested, the 

 plants after the first year neeil room to 

 form into the dimensions de.sired. An 

 occasional clipping will bring them into 

 shape. Many privets grown in this way 

 are now planted singly and in groups 

 and rows on private estates. Standard 

 privets in many instances are answering 

 the purposes for which bay trees were 

 heretofore used, and it is questionable if 

 they are not as effective as the bays. 

 Tliey are certainly hardier and can be 

 produced at a much less expense. 



.Japanese maples, in order to keep 

 them in good shape indefinitely, should 

 be regularly pruned hard back. Then 

 they will continue to develop their ef- 

 fective characteristics, whereas, if they 

 are let alone to grow unhindered, in a 

 very short while they will get unshapely 

 and bare of foliage at the base. 



Plants of Hydrangea Otaksa in tubs 

 and left unsold should be planted out in 

 the open ground, and, if the flowers are 

 no consideration, it will also help to in- 

 crease the value of the plants to cut 

 them back well when planting them. 



Hydrangea paniculata grandiflora is 

 easily grown from hardwood cuttings, 

 and considering the demand for plants 

 of small size they should be grown in 

 large numbers.
