 steps taken. There seems to be no one, 

 however, who is sufficiently interested 

 in the concern to advance the money 

 necessary to continue the business. 



The receiver has decided to continue 

 the business for the present and sell 

 stoik on hand at catalogue prices, 

 awaiting the convening of the court 

 later in the month. It is possible, in 

 view of the discussion at the meeting 

 of local creditors, that the business may

SOBBUS AMEBICANA. 



I am mailing under separate cover 

 a small branch from a tree bearing 

 bright orange-colored berries. I should 

 appreciate it if you would give me the 

 name of this tree and a little of its 

 history. C. F. M. 



8orl)us Americana, commonly called 

 mountain ash and dogberry, makes a 

 |>old, striking tree, and is particularly 

 beautiful while in fruit. The foliage 

 also takes on a fine coloring in the fall. 

 There are some thirty species of sorbus 

 found in North America. The one for- 

 warded and Sorbus Aucuparia, formerly 

 called Pyrus, the European mountain 

 *sli, or rowan tree of Scotland, are the 

 two species most worthy of culture. 

 I hey are hardy and seem particularly 

 'ree from attacks of insects as well as 

 tunjroi.i aflTections. * C. W.

needless for us to picture the war inci- 

 dents. 



We are happy to state that Holland 

 so far has kept neutral and we have the 

 most decided assurance that our govern- 

 ment will keep this up with every 

 might and power. This is for us a 

 great consolation, as we have no desire 

 to mingle in the great fight against na- 

 tions with which we have lived in peace 

 ever since we can remember and to 

 which we have feelings of friendship 

 only. 



The neutrality of Holland places us 

 in the happy position that we can ship 

 to several countries. It may be that 

 there will be some delay, as we will 

 depend upon the steamships available, 

 but we are assured that the Holland- 

 America line will keep up its service 

 and that there will be no increase in 

 freight rates and assurance premiums, 

 except a little addition to the latter 

 when molest is included. 



We can report that owing to the fa- 

 vorable weather all through the growing 

 season the stock is in beautiful condi- 

 tion and there is plenty of help to keep
