or other grass, with a cover crop if nec- 

 essary. After the land has rested for 

 two or three years a good coat of barn- 

 yard manure should be applied; then 

 this and the clover or grass should be 

 turned under and the corn or other cul- 

 tivated crop grown on it. The follow- 

 ing season the land will again be in as 

 good condition to grow nursery stock as 

 it ever was before. 



NECESSITY FOR INSPECTION. 



[The following is a portion of an address by 

 A. F. Conradl, professor of entomology at the 

 Texas Agricultural College, before his State 

 Horticultural Society.] 



Several seasons ago we were spraying 

 an infested orchard in one of the ■north- 

 ern states. At dinner time one of the 

 workmen took his dinner pail and ate 

 the contents under an apple tree in an 

 orchard near by. When approached by 

 the writer his hat and clothing had scale 

 on them and he had been sitting under 

 a perfectly clean tree during the last 

 thirty minutes, leaning against the trunk. 

 Many other illustrations could be cited, 

 but let this suffice. 



We know that as the broods are not 

 defined these crawling specimens are in 

 evidence on every infested tree during 

 the entire growing season. They may 

 then be carried by birds, bees and other 

 insects. Thoy may be blown by the wind, 

 and frequently, while spraying an in- 

 fested orchard, careless operators carry 

 them on their hands and clothing. After 

 they have become stationary they may 

 be carried by the plowman when culti- 

 vating the orchard. Correspondents often 

 wrap infested twigs carelessly when 

 transmitting them through the mails for 

 identification. 



We should be convinced that an effect- 

 ive inspection force is of incalculable 

 service to our horticulture. It is of the 

 highest importance that the men on the 

 inspection force are not only well quali- 

 fied in detecting injurious insects and 

 plant diseases, but that they are con- 

 scientious men with plenty of common 

 sense. 



Any law may be operated and applied 

 according to its wording, yet the spirit 

 of the law may not be there. A first-

 were born and claim to know something about Peonies. We always give satisfaction witb 

 the size of our plants, and the correctness of names when they come into bloom speaks for 

 us. We do not claim to have 1000 varieties or 1200 varieties, as this number is nonexistent. 

 One variety frequently doing duty under 20 different names. This occurs even among the 

 new high-pricea kinds. Please send for our list and prices of same.
