There can be no complaint on the 

 quantity or quality of the peach crop, 

 but there are a great many who would 

 like to see better prices. 



On city streets one hears, amid the 

 h(»iks of the automobiles, the chug-chug 

 of the compressed air cleaning machine 

 that goes from house to house renovating 

 carpets, curtains, etc.; and it will not be 

 long before pedestrians will learn to keep 

 a watchful eye out to escape a dose of 

 fumigant from the tree sprayers. Al- 

 ready, in several eastern cities that are 

 specially bug-ridden, enterprising men 

 have equipped themselves to spray house- 

 owners' trees and shrubs at so much per, 

 and this is sure to develop into a special 

 line of business as the importance of 

 spraying becomes more generally recog- 

 nized. 



HUNTSVILLE NURSERIES UNITE. 



The Alabama Nurseries Co., Hunts- 

 ville, Ala., has been absorbed by the 

 Chase Nursery Co., of the same place, 

 and the offices of the two companies will 

 be merged. The announcement of the 

 sale states that the acreage of the com- 

 pany will be 1,100, making it one of the 

 largest nurseries in the United States. 

 Herbert Chase, • treasurer and general 

 manager of the Alabama Co., will retire 

 from business. The^"Gbase Co. is the 

 younger corporation and |s composed of 

 three brothers — Henry B. Chase, presi- 

 dent; Robert C. Chase, treasurer, ^nd 

 Charles Chase, secretary. 



SHRUB JOTTINGS. 



Spiraea Bumalda is probably the most 

 all-round useful one of the various sum- 

 mer blooming spiraeas. Of Japanese 

 origin, it is quite dwarf, rarely exceed- 

 ing thirty inches in height, but js quite 

 vigorous growing. The deep pink flow- 

 ers, which open early in July, are 

 produced until September, making this 

 a specially valuable shrub for massing 

 effects. The bright green leaves are 

 serrated, while the flowers are produced 

 in large, flat-topped clusters. The crim- 

 son variety, S. Bumalda Anthony Wa- 

 terer, has for some years been an ex- 

 tremely popular shrub. The foliage is

somewhat variegated with crimson, white 

 and gold, while the crimson flowers are 

 carried in dense corymbs. 



Diervilla Candida, the white weigelia, is 

 another white flowering shrub worthy 

 the notice of florists. In the north the 

 wood will kill back to some extent when 

 we have more than ordinary rigorous 

 winters. This year it is flowering mag- 

 nificently, coming into season June 15. 

 The flowers are produced for a number 

 of weeks; in fact, this is almost an all- 

 summer blooming variety. The hand- 

 some light green foliage, floriferous 

 blooming qualities and the fact that it 

 makes a graceful shrub in and out of 

 bloom would suggest its desirability as a 

 lawn specimen. If planted in masses,

do not be afraid to thin in order to let

Diervilla hybrida is a collective name 

 for many varieties, but we still think Eva 

 Bathke the best. It meets with a heavier 

 nursery call than any other sort, its bril- 

 lian crimson flowers being of a very dis- 

 tinct shade. The variety Lavallei has 

 reddish purple flowers, but the habit of 

 the plant is sprawly. M. Lemoine is a 

 more desirable sort. The pale pink
