C. H. Piper, of Mechanicsville, la., haa 

 sold hia nursery business to A. Murray 

 & Son. 



The Sunny field Nursery, of Pough- 

 keepsie, N. Y., is now under the manage- 

 ment of Albert Tersteeg, a nurseryman 

 of extensive experience. 



N. W. SCHRUNNEE and Richard Grab, 

 of San Diego, Cal., are preparing to es- 

 tablish a nursery on Highland avenue, 

 between Fifteenth and Sixteenth streets. 



B. H. Farr, Wyomissing, Pa., has se- 

 cured seventy acres of excellent land 

 within ten minutes ' walk of his propagat- 

 ing plant and eventually will devote it 

 all to tbe nursery business. 



F. W. Glenn, formerly sales manager 

 for the Phoenix Nursery Co., at Bloom- 

 ington. 111., has resigned that position, 

 with the intention of starting in. the 

 nursery business on bis own account in 

 the near future. He is said to have an 

 option on some land in the neighborhood 

 of Bloomington. 



At the annual meeting of the stock- 

 holders of the Northwest Nursery Co., of 

 Valley City, N. D., the following oflBcers 

 were elected: President, Congressman 

 Geo. M. Young; vice-president. Dr. E. A. 

 Pray; secretary, E. A. Hilborn; treas- 

 urer, P. A. Pickett. A dividend of ten 

 per cent was declared and, in addition, a 

 substantial surplus was reported. The 

 company has made preparations for plac- 

 ing additional area under cultivation and 

 increasing the volume of business. 



Although recommended by the Post- 

 office Department and various senators, 

 the Senate posteffice committee in re- 

 porting the post-office appropriation bill 

 omits the provision to include seeds, 

 bulbs, cuttings, plants, etc., in the list of 

 articles to which the parcel post zone 

 rates apply. The committee decided to 

 leave the matter- to the commission and, 

 if it favors the plan, congress will later 

 amend the law to include seeds, plants, 

 bulbs and nursery stock in the parcel 

 post class.

Nursery interests have undergone rad- 

 ical changes in our generation, said L. C. 

 Stark in an address before the Tennessee 

 Nurserymen's Association; in fact, they 

 have developed to such a point that for 

 improvementa and bettermenta in a larger 

 sense we must look outside our internal 

 affairs. In planning for the future we 

 must look beyond the confines of our own 

 business. The nurserymen, of course, de- 

 sire increased plantings of trees, and the 

 orchardists want a greater market for 

 their products. To accomplish this ob- 

 ject in a large way, it is neceasary to 

 greatly increaae the conaumption of fruit.
