has been and is devastating these 

 orchards, and the Department, in co- 

 operation \dth state authorities, has been 

 working to check it. The systematic 

 work undertaken in the matter of eradi- 

 cating blight from the orchards through 

 winter pruning has" led to beneficial re- 

 sults. The progressive ofchardists who 

 have carried on the work thoroughly 

 have succeeded in holding the disease in 

 check and in securing a profitable crop 

 of fruit from the treated orchards. In 

 other caseS; however, principally as the 

 result of careless treatment or no treat- 

 ment at all, many orchards have been 

 destroyed. The work wiU be continued 

 this coming season and every assistance 

 possible given to those orchardists de- 

 sirous of fighting the disease. As al- 

 ready indicated, the Department has had 

 the hearty cooperation of the state ex- 

 periment stations and other state author- 

 ities, who are fully alive to the impor- 

 tance and necessity of doing all within 

 their power to aid the fruit growers of 

 the respective states in which ttey are 

 located. 



"Another line of work which has been 

 carried on successfully during the last 

 year has had for its object the control 

 of apple diseases in the Ozark Mountain 

 region.* This section of the country is 

 developing into a fine fruit region, and 

 the value of the orchards is increasing 

 yearly. Since the orchards have come 

 into bearing, however, various serious 

 diseases have appeared, and the vital 

 question of how best to control these 

 diseases has arisen. Some of the work 

 started last year in Nebraska and local- 

 ities in Missouri had to be discontinued 

 on account of the destruction of the fruit 

 by cold. In a considerable portion of the 

 Ozark region, however, there was a good 

 crop of fruit not injured by cold, and 

 in these orchards the control of bitter 

 rot, black rot, and the fruit blotch was 

 again practically complete where the 

 methods recommended by the Depart- 

 ment were carried out, from ninety-five 

 to ninety-eight per cent being saved in 

 the sprayed orchards. In all this work 

 combination treatments have been made 

 in order to prevent both diseases caused 

 by fungi and injuries produced by in- 

 sects. In this work the Bureau of Plant 

 Industry is cooperating with the Bureau 

 of Entomology." 



ST. PAUL. 



The Twin City Florists' and Garden- 

 ers' Club was organized in Minneapolis, 

 at the city park greenhouses, Thursday 

 night, December 13. A constitution and 

 by-laws were adopted and the following 

 officers elected: President, Theo. Wirth, 

 Minneapolis; vice-president, O. J. Olson, 

 St. Paul; secretary, S. D. Dysinger, St. 

 Paul ; treasurer, E. A. Latham, Minneap- 

 olis. Executive committee: E. Nagel and 

 T. Hall, of Minneapolis; E. P. Holm and 

 A. S. Swanson, of St. Paul. 



There were thirty-four present, who 

 signed the charter roll, while a number 

 were unavoidably absent. The club will 

 meet monthly, alternately at Holm & Ol- 

 son's store, St. Paul, and the city green- 

 houses, Minneapolis. All intending char- 

 ter members should send in their names 

 at once to the secretary. 



Expressions of sympathy are heard on 

 every hand over the untimely death of 

 P. J. Hauswirth. The Twin City florists 

 sent an elegant wreath of orchids, lilies 

 and roses to the funeral. 



Trade is good and promises to be a 

 hummer for Christmas. X. Y. Z.
