Officers for 1909^10: Pres.. F. H. Stannard, 

 Ottawa. Kan.; Vice-pres., W. P. Stark, Louisi- 

 ana, Mo.; Sec'y, John Hall, Rochester, N. Y.: 

 Treas., C. L. Yates. Rochester, N. Y. Thirty- 

 fifth annual meeting, Denver, June 8 to 10, 1910. 



Many a nurseryman who thought his 

 season over, finds it rejuvenated. 



A PARE nursery has been started at 

 Utica, N. Y., vrith young stock from D. 

 Hill, Dundee, 111., and Thomas Meehan 

 & Sons, Dreshertown, Pa. 



The Beading Nursery, of Beading, 

 Mast., has not been sold, as was reported 

 in local newspapers there, but is still 

 owned by J. Woodward Manning. 



The East Texas Nursery Co. has been 

 incorporated at Tyler, Tex., with a capi- 

 tal stock of $50,000. The incorporators 

 are E. W. Mims, C. C. Crews, J. M. Mims 

 and others. 



Nurserymen of the central states 

 nerer before went up against a season 

 like the present: From winter to mid- 

 mimmer almost in a day, and then, after 

 growth had started, back to winter 

 again. 



T. E. Cashman, president of the Clin- 

 ton Falls Nursery Co., Owatonna, Minn., 

 is campaigning for .re-election to the 

 state senate, where, from reports, he has 

 effervesced regularly and continuously, 

 enjoying himself immensely. 



B. E. Gage, of Peterson Nursery, Chi- 

 cago, had a carload of nursery stock and 

 six men at Oshkosh, Wis., April 22, on 

 what was thought would be about the 

 last job of the spring season, when over 

 eight inches of snow fell on them. 



M, P. Byrd, of the Byrd Nursery Co., 

 Omaha, Neb., says he has never before 

 known a season that would equal this one 

 for the large quantity and high quality 

 of the stock purchased. "People have 

 seen the folly of using cheap goods," he 

 says, "and are this year putting in the 

 finest quality they can buy." 



Jacs Smits, nurseryman at Naarden, 

 Holland, who arrived at New York April 

 20, was arrested by Marshal Henkel on 

 the charge of presenting a false consular 

 invoice for a shipment of blue spruces, 

 Japan maples, rhododendrons and other 

 plants which arrived at that port April 

 11 on the steamship Botterdam. The 

 complaint against Smits, sworn to by 

 Customs Inspector Howard D. Esterbrook, 

 states that the value of the imported 

 jdants was stated falsely to be $l63, 

 whaj;^ their true value greatly exceeded 

 thac^^mpunt. Smits was arraigned be- 

 fore United States Commissioner Shields 

 and held in $2,000 bail for examination.

SWEET WILLIAMS 



We offer a choice collection of the newest larger flowering types of this old favorite in crimson: 

 Holbom Glory (many brilliant colors, all with white eye) ; velvety maroon ; Newport pink ; red, white 

 ground; scarlet; violet, white ground; pure white, giant mixed, etc. They are extra heavy field 

 clumps, much branched but compact, as near perfect, we believe, as it is possible to have them. They 

 will give a full and immediate effect. 79c per dozen; $5.00 per 100.
