NOT A CONSOLIDATION. 



A daily newspaper recently contained 

 the announcement that Harry G. Patten, 

 son of C. G. Patten, the veteran nursery- 

 man of Charles City, la., had taken 

 charge of the field work of the Sherman 

 Nursery Co., at the same city. Added 

 to this announcement was the assertion 

 that ' * this virtually means a merging of 

 the two firms. Patten & Son and the 

 Sherman Nursery Co., the total area of 

 whose combined nurseries is 1,400 

 acres. ' * 



When this report was submitted to E. 

 M. Sherman, president of the Sherman 

 Nursery Co., he made the following 

 statement to The Review: "The report 

 referred to is only true in part. The 

 facts are that H. G, Patten has with- 

 drawn from the business management of 

 the firm of C. G. Patten & Son, but still 

 retains his interest in the orchards be- 

 longing to that firm, and has accepted 

 a position as superintendent of the 

 grounds of our nursery. E. C. Patten, a 

 younger son of C. G. Patten, has as- 

 sumed charge of the ofSce business of C. 

 G. Patten & Son." 



TEST ON EOSE PLANT DUTY. 



Under the new tariff law the duty 

 on rose plants is 4 cents each, but the 

 duty on Manetti multiflora or briar 

 roses is only $1 per thousand. An im- 

 portation by L. Gillier & Co., New 

 York, consisted of roses classified by 

 the collector under the provision in 

 paragraph 264, tariff act of 1909, for 

 "rose plants budded, grafted, or 

 grown on their own roots," tut by the 

 importer claimed to be dutiable under 

 the provision in the same paragraph 

 for "Manetti multiflora and briar

rose." The protest has been sustained. 

 In his decision Waite, general ap- 

 praiser, said: "Considerable testimony 

 of men who appear to be well posted 

 in the growth of rose plants was taken 

 in this case, and we think it clearly 

 appears from this testimony that the 

 budding or grafting of the plants in 

 question had failed from some cause 

 or other, and the goods as imported 

 were simply the plants of the multiflora 

 and should have been so assessed." 



EVILS OF THE REPLACE POLICY. 



[A paper read by J. R. Maybew, of Waza- 

 hacbie, Tex., before the American Association 

 of Nurserymen at the Denver convention, con- 

 tinued from the Review of August 4.] 



After reviewing the reason for taking 



up the question of policy in replacing 



stock at less than full price, and its 



effect on the customer, Mr. Mayhew 



continued: 



What is the Effect on Salesmen? 



Those of us doing a retail business 

 depend, to a large extent, on making 

 sales through traveling men. Most of 

 us have had more or less road experi-
