The Weekly Florists^ Review^ 



OcTOBEn 20, 1910. 



Jasper county also holds high rank for 

 its annual surplus of nursery products, 

 the worth of the 1909 crop being 

 $82,000. This county is the center of 

 strawberry plant culture, leading all 

 other counties in this respect. 



Every Missouri nursery annually 

 places many flowers on the market, but 

 Cass county holds, and for many years 

 has held, the lead in this respect. 

 Railroad figures from there covering 

 1909 show that the shipments of cut and 

 other kinds of flowers for that year 

 weighed 798,663 pounds, and that their 

 worth was $399,337. St. Louis, Jack- 

 son, Jasper, Greene, Buchanan, Pettis, 

 Cole and Cape Girardeau counties also 

 marketed many thousand pounds of 

 flowers. 



TREATMENT FOR HOLLOW TREE. 



Will you tell me what to do with a 

 tree that has rotted at the heart until 

 there is but a rim about five inches 

 thick left? There is an opening on one 

 side about eight inches wide that ex- 

 tends up the tree about ten feet, start- 

 ing at the ground, and the edges of the 

 opening are healed and barked over, 

 and the tree looks healthy. The rotten 

 part extends inside the tree about four 

 feet above the opening. Should it be 

 scraped and filled with cement? 



G. G. 



Scrape away all decayed matter in 

 the opening and chisel out all the rotted 

 portion above the opening and clean it 

 out well. Trees in an even worse con- 

 dition than yours have been saved, and 

 there is no reason whatever why yours 

 cannot be made to grow for many 

 years. Instead of using cement en- 

 tirely, you can fill the opening with 

 stones, cementing them as you go along 

 and leaving the front facing to be done 

 last. When all is finished, give the 

 surface a dressing of coal tar. Any 

 wounds can also be dressed with coal 

 tar, previously cutting a smooth surface 

 for it. Tar is a splendid preservative 

 and cleanser, and keeps water from 

 soaking through the cracks into the 

 hearts of trees. For the inside of the 

 tree among the stones, one part Port- 

 land cement to three parts sand will do, 

 but for facing the work we would make 

 it equal parts of cement and sand.
