OULF COAST NURSERYMEN. 



The Gulf Coast Nurserymen's Asso- 

 ciation met October 4 at Houston, Tex., 

 with E. H. Bushway presiding and fif- 

 teen members present. Plans for sys- 

 tematizing work for members of the 

 association and formulating of plans 

 for the business interests of the mem- 

 bers were considered. 



The members declared themselves 

 strictly against the taxing of growing 

 nursery stock — that is, the trees in the 

 field. They declared it unjust to tax 

 the crops of nurserymen and have the 

 crops of other soil tillers go untaxed. 

 The association agreed to cooperate 

 with the State Nurserymen's Associa-

tion in testing a case of the taxation 

 of nursery stock. 



T^ie matter of import duties was re- 

 ferred to a legislative committee. 



The importance of advertising was 

 discussed and a committee appointed to 

 find a medium which would be suitable 

 to the needs of the members of the as- 

 sociation. One member declared that 

 "the people wlio will set out trees next 

 season are in the north tonight, and we 

 have no way of reaching them." 



A uniform labor rate was adopted by 

 the members for budding, but the rate 

 was not given out. 



The nurserymen seemed cheerful as 

 to the outlook for the year. Although 

 it is early in the season, stock has sold 

 close. Some have sold out, and will 

 probably have to buy to fill orders.
