The pruning of maples, if any be nec- 

 essary, should not be put off much longer. 



J. Dykhuis is making an American 

 trip for Felix & Dykhuis, Boskoop, Hol- 

 land. 



G. W. Kemp, a nurseryman of Har- 

 nedsville. Pa., will remove about Decem- 

 ber 1 to Somerset county, Maryland, 

 where he has purchased a large farm and 

 nursery. 



Do NOT hesitate to cut down a tree 

 that is a menace to its neighbor, if it 

 is not worth the trouble and expense of 

 moving it to some other location. Bet- 

 ter one good tree than two poor ones. 



There are two kinds of nurserymen; 

 one of them sells what he can and then 

 cuts the price on the surplus to half or 

 less and does not answer letters from his 

 first customers, who want to know where 

 they get off. 



It may interest those who have a de- 

 cided preference for the variegated Irish 

 yew over the green, that the fornier is 

 the hardier of the two, in so far, at 

 least, that it stands the winter better 

 than the other. 



In some places it may be a serious 

 matter to procure material for the win- 

 ter covering of everything needing it, 

 but there are few places where a supply 

 of forest leaves cannot be had, and for 

 many things there is no better covering 

 than leaves. 



The wholesale nurserymen are having 

 the biggest season on record, for not 

 only is fall planting on the increase, but 

 as more nurserymen become equipped 

 with winter storage and packing facili- 

 ties, they want autumn delivery of such 

 stock as they do not grow. 



The extraordinary popularity, de- 

 served, of course, of Clematis paniculata, 

 has had a good deal to dp with the neg- 

 lect of C. Flammula. When we consider 

 how serviceable it is, coming into bloom 

 so much earlier than the other, we may 

 well wonder that more of it is not grown 

 than there is. 



Bebberis Wilsonae, exhibited by 

 Veitch & Son, has been given a first- 

 class certificate by the Eoyal Horticul- 

 tural Society of England. It is a dwarf, 

 shrubby species from central China, with 

 rather pretty glaucous foliage, but the 

 attraction is the bright coral fruit with 

 which the twigs are studded in compact 

 little bimches. It is said it wiU make 

 an admirable plant for the rock garden. 



A GOOD way of protecting figs grow- 

 ing outdoors from the severity of the 

 northern winters is by partially under- 

 mining the trees by excavating the soil 

 at one side and then bending the wood 

 down and covering it all well with the 

 soil removed in the digging. This is, 

 perhaps, in more ways than one, better 

 than digging up the trees entirely and 

 covering them up elsewhere, indoors or 

 out.
