at $102 per thousand. It is evident 

 that if this were made the test ever- 

 green seedlings would be dutiable at the 

 former or the latter rate according as 

 they were valued at more or less than 

 $10 per thousand plants. Under the doc- 

 trine of Loggie V. United States, de- 

 cided by the circuit court of appeals, 

 it would be improper to apply section 

 7 under such circumstances. 



' * We are of the opinion that the plants 

 in question should be classified as ever- 

 green seedlings under the first provision 

 in paragraph 252, and sustain the pro- 

 test and reverse the collector 's decision. ' ' 



SEASONABLE SUGGESTIONS. 



In all or nearly all of the important 

 nursery establishments the thorough cul- 

 tivation of the soil is considered of the 

 utmost importance, but there are some 

 places where indications point to the ex- 

 istence of a belief that it is labor wasted 

 to cultivate soil in nursery rows. There 

 are many trees that are, when young, 

 just as tender in some respects as many 

 bedding plants, on which much greater 

 care is usually bestowed. The cheapest 

 and best way of cultivating the soil in 

 a nursery is to keep the cultivator con- 

 tinuously at work, not to wait until 

 weeds cover the surface of the soil, and 

 the soil itself gets baked hard as iron. 

 It is often the case that young trees are 

 planted so that the cultivator can be 

 run between plants, but it will pay to 

 follow up the cultivator work with hoe- 

 ing in between. 



It appears that last winter was one of 

 the few to play havoc with CaUfomia 

 privet in some sections, but in spite of 

 such occasional set-backs privet will al- 

 ways be in demand, because there is noth- 

 ing approaching it for beauty and utility 

 when planted for hedges. Green cuttings 

 of privet, put in about the middle of 

 July, will root freely and quickly in a 

 partially shaded spot outdoors. Soil com- 

 posed in the main of leaf-mold suits 

 them, when rooting, better than any 

 other. In three or four weeks after the 

 cuttings are put in they will be fit for 

 lifting and transplanting into nursery 

 rows, there to remain until next spring, 

 and longer if necessary. The only indis- 

 pensable requirement in the rooting of 

 privet at that time — in July — is partial 

 shade for at least a week; otherwise, 

 ,the wood being soft, they will wilt right 

 down. R. It. 



A BOOKKEEPER MISSING. 



The Des Moines Leader for June 18 

 rejtorts that "C. C. Gremes, bookkeeper 

 for the M. J. Wragg Nursery Co., is 

 being sought by detectives on two in- 

 formations charging forgery. M. J. 

 Wragg, his employer, yesterday filed the 

 information, but Gremes had disappeared. 

 The extent of his alleged peculation is 

 not known, but may exceed $1,000. Mr. 

 Wragg had been absent from Des Moines 

 for a couple of weeks, leaving the bufii- 

 ness in charge of Mr. Gremes, while ne 

 visited his daughters, who are residing 

 on homesteads near Cheyenne, Wyo. He 

 returned at midnight Sunday. Yesterday 

 morning when he reached the office in 

 the Good block Gremes was not there and 

 he at once began investigation. Drafts 

 and checks belonging to the firm had been 

 cashed, but the proceeds were not ac- 

 counted for. Also a check was found 

 where Mr. Wragg 's name had been 

 forged."
