William A. Peterson, Chicago, is 

 wintering in Florida, the Bahamas and 

 Cuba. 



The demand for white pine seedlings 

 in the eastern states will this spring ex- 

 ceed the supply. Wide-awake nursery- 

 men are sowing more and more Pinus 

 Strobus each year, to enable them to 

 help fill the coming rush of orders. 



The British government has decided to 

 plant 9,000,000 acres of land with for- 

 est trees, the work to be spread over a 

 period of eighty years. It will furnish 

 employment for 17,000 men each winter, 

 it is estimated, and will eventually yield 

 an income of $7,500,000 to the govern- 

 ment. Real lumbering operations will 

 not commence for forty years. 



A COMPANY to be known as the Willis- 

 ton Fruit & Nursery Co. has recently 

 been organized at Williston, N. D., and 

 has acquired a tract of irrigated land, 

 a large part of which will be planted the 

 coming season. The object of the com- 

 pany is to grow small fruits, as well 

 as all kinds of nursery stock. The head 

 of the company is an experienced nurs- 

 eryman. The nursery is located about 

 a mile north of Williston, a city of about 

 3,500 inhabitants, near the State Experi- 

 mental Farm and in the heart of the 

 big Williston irrigation project, which 

 is being installed by the United States 

 Reclamation Service. The soil is fertile; 

 the transportation facilities are excel- 

 lent, both by rail and by water, and 

 there is an exhaustless supply of good 

 coal in close proximity.

A LIME-SULPHUR WASH. 



Kindly let me know in what propor- 

 tion lime and sulphur should be used for 

 spraying apple trees. F. A. 



Lime and sulphur may be used in 

 equal proportions in making a lime- 

 sidphur wash for fruit trees. I believe, 

 however, that the lime is fully as im- 

 portant as the sulphur, if not more so, 

 and besides, when large quantities are 

 made, the expense of the latter is con- 

 siderable. I, therefore, use ten pounds
