 8e»ser, Kocbester, N. Y.; Treas., 0. h. Tates, 

 Rocbeater, N. Y. The 33d annual convention wfli 

 be held at Milwaukee, June, 1908. 



The high bush cranberry is a handsome 

 shrub five to ten feet high, which in 

 autumn is striking by reason of its clus- 

 ters of fine red berries and the color 

 of its leaves. 



The Phoenix Nursery Co., Blooming- 

 ton, HI,, is opening oflBces in various sec- 

 tions of the country for the purpose of 

 handling the agency force. The latest 

 ofSce opened is at Jackson, Miss. 



The Ohio Agricultural Experiment 

 Station, Wooster, O., has issued an at- 

 tractively printed bulletin entitled ' ' Ever- 

 greens, Their Uses and Culture," which 

 will be of interest to nurserymen. 



C. F. Dallman, of the Missoula Nur- 

 sery Co., Missoula, Mont., March 24 

 shipped two carloads of nursery stock 

 to McDonald & Tighe, of Billings. The 

 shipment included a large number of 

 Mcintosh Reds and other varieties, which 

 will be planted by the farmers of the 

 Yellowstone valley. 



The philadelphus thrives in almost 

 any well drained soil and often does 

 well in the shade of trees and buildings. 

 Pruning should be done after the shrubs 

 have flowered, as the blossoms appear 

 on the wood of the previous year's 

 growth. By pruning, the shrubs can all 

 be kept within fixed limits of growth. 



The Sunnyside Nursery Co., Sunnyside, 

 Wash., has just finished the delivery of 

 last season's stock, and is planting seed- 

 lings and grafts for this season. The 

 shipment of seedlings received from 

 France this spring is 100,000 cherries, 

 110,000 pears, 10,000 plums. They are 

 lining out 300,000 apple seedlings for 

 budding and planting 600,000 apple 

 grafts. They have suflBcient peach pits 

 for budding 100,000 during the sum- 

 mer. This company has nurseries at 

 Sunnyside, Grandview and White Bluffs. 



Most of the early blooming spiraeas 

 have dense growing habits and must be 

 thinned out while dormant, but under 

 no circumstances should they be pruned 

 in winter or spring, as the flowers would 

 thereby be destroyed. Remove only con- 

 gested growths and weak wood in thin- 

 ning out. The old flower sprays should 

 always be cut when through blooming, 

 as this gives the young wood a full op- 

 portunity to develop for the following 

 year. Most of the spiraeas are unsatis- 

 factory in shade, or near trees. They 

 do best in the sun and like equally light 

 or heavy soil, provided it is well drained. 



REORGANIZATION AT SALEM. 



At the annual meeting of the stock- 

 holders of the Capital City Nursery 

 Co., Salem, Ore., called for the purpose 

 of canvassing the results of the cam- 

 paign for subscriptions to the capital 

 stock of the reorganized company, it was 

 found that the company still lacked 

 $8,000 of the required $50,000. It seem- 

 ed to be the sense of the meeting that 

 another effort should be made to raise 

 the required $8,000 and if success was 

 not met with, to give up the proposition.

a local paper, "can be understood when 

 it is known that the Oregon Nursery 

 Co. has the second largest payroll in 

 the city at present, and it is believed the 

 reorganized Capital City Nursery Co. 

 would become still larger, for the coun- 

 try is yet in the infancy of the trans- 

 formation from a grain growing section 

 to a fruit producer. There are unlimited 

 possibilities ahead for a good nursery
