OUr 2-page adv. in last week's KEVIEW contained an.... 



Unqualified Guarantee 



of Three for One on all untrue stock of Peonies and Iris. 



We can do this because we are absolutely certain of every variety and every plant in our stock. 

 Pay no attention to what you read about the impossibility of knowing what you are buying or selling — 

 but buy of those who DO know what they are selling. 



See list of varieties with prices in last week's REVIEW, or send for descriptive price list. Send 

 orders now. We ship early in September. 



PETERSON NURSERY, Lincolnand Peterson Aves., Chicago

that had been moved was, by reason of 

 the check thereby given it, later in 

 swelling the buds than plants that had 

 not been disturbed. I have been strength- 

 ened in this opinion by having noticed 

 that the buds and the young wood of 

 privet that has since perished were fully 

 alive in February. 



It will be well now, in the case of 

 privet hedges, the sides of which are 

 bare, or with blanks here and there, but 

 ■with a fairly thrifty top growth, to clip 

 this top growth in order that the weak- 

 •«ned growth at the sides may reap the 

 benefit of the sap thus diverted in their 

 •direction. Many things have been from 

 time to time used as substitutes for 

 privet, but so far nothing has been found 

 to answer all the requirements expected 

 of privet. The late season, when the 

 damage came to be vividly noticeable, 

 iias preventer! much replanting being 

 •done this year, but it looks as if a great 

 •deal of that kind of work would be 

 undertaken in the fall, and more, per- 

 ■haps, next spring. That ought to be 

 sufficient reason for the rooting of cut- 

 tings from green wood, which should be 

 ninder way early next month so that they 

 may get well rooted for transplanting in 

 mursery rows before fall. D. M. 



THE LABOR QUESTION. 



One of the questions propounded at 

 '.the recent Detroit meeting of the A, A. 

 1^. was, "How can we decrease cost, 

 ^oing more with horses and improved 

 tools and using less labor t" In answer 

 to this, some suggested the using of 

 •such implements as the Hgenfritz plow. 

 ;Some, again, said that each man must 

 work this question out for himself. Still 

 .another thought the question should read, 

 "How can we employ more labor t" In 

 his idea the laboring man had the noblest 

 •of all the professions and he thought it 

 entirely wrong to try to dispense with 

 .labor, even though it would save a few 

 dollars. 



THE ALBAUGH CASE. 



Attorney Ellis Kerr, of Tippecanoe 

 •City, June 28 filed in Cincinnati a plea 

 in involuntary bankruptcy against the 

 Albaugh Nursery and Orchard Nursery, 

 one of the largest concerns of its kind in 

 Ohio. The Fifth National bank of Tip- 

 pecanoe City, the Troy National Bank 

 and L. W. Agenbrond are petitioners, 

 setting up large sums of indebtedness. 

 The court is asked to prevent the Fourth 

 National Bank of Dayton from proceed- 

 ing to collect from the company a judg-
