 his son, Clarence Smith, for a total cash 

 price of $27,200.

 N. M., has prepared for an enlargement 

 of its business by establishing a sub-

 streets. Wyatt Johnson, manager of the 

 nursery, will have charge of the branch. 



S. M. Meehan, of Thomas Mechan & 

 Sons, Dresden, Fa., visited Excelsior 

 Springs, Mo., during the summer, and 

 the entiiusiasm he aroused Jimong the 

 property owners will lead to considerable 

 landscape work being done there this 

 seasor. 



A NEW 700-acre nursery has been 

 started about thirteen miles from Nor- 

 folk, in Norfolk county, Virginia, by B. 

 Lauterbach and M. Holster. The soil 

 throughout the whole tract is said to be 

 a deep, rich, sandy loam, which has been 

 used for two years for the growing of 

 peas.

 The first session of the meeting was 

 called to order at 10 a. m., by the presi- 

 dent, W. A. Stockwell, of Alvin. Secre- 

 tary I. M. Johnson, of Houston, was 

 also present.

 in the way of introducing new and
