The tenth annual convention of the 

 National Nut Growers' Association will 

 be held at Mobile, Ala., October 5 to 7. 

 Many southern nurserymen, especiaUy 

 the pecan growers, will attend. 



The late Lewis Chase, the Bochester 

 nurseryman, is said to have left an estate 

 of $126,000, of which $100,000 is per- 

 sonal property. To Charles H. Chase, a 

 son, 100 shares of stock in the Chase 

 Bros. Nursery Co. and a farm at Sidney, 

 Me., are bequeathed. To his cousin, Julia 

 Chase Washburn, of North Livermore, 

 Me., a farm of 140 acres near that town 

 is left. 



THE METHODS OF MABKETINO. 



[An extract from a speech by Jim Parker, of 

 Tecumseb, Oklahoma, at the St. Lonia conren- 

 tioD of the American Association of Nursery- 

 men.] 



It is the province of the wholesale 

 nurseryman to notice the trend of plant- 

 ing in the great fruit growing districts, 

 to watch the public approval or disap- 

 proval of the different varieties and 

 govern his plantings accordingly, to fos- 

 ter and encourage all movements for 

 the beautifying of the cities, and to see 

 that the supply of nursery stock is al- 

 ways up to the demand. In the whole- 

 sale nurseryman is centered that power 

 and knowledge that give stability and 

 dignity to the business. 



The retail nurseryman keeps in touch 

 with local demands. He prepares those 

 breezy advertisements which make the 

 city man lonesome. He is constantly on 

 the outlook for opportunities of increas- 

 ing sales. If there is a large crop of 

 apples in any community, he is ready 

 to rush his salesmen in and push the 

 sale of apple trees. If some farmer 

 makes good money out of a peach crop, 

 he is ready to offer that farmer's neigh- 

 bors a chance to get rich growing 

 peaches. If there is a glut in the whole- 

 sale market, or a peculiar condition 

 which causes the market to drop, thus 

 offering him an opportunity for unusual 

 profit, he is Johnny-on-the-spot and he 

 knows just in which neck ox the woods 

 to go and sell trees. 



What of the local nurseryman f His 

 neighbors do not buy of him. They 

 would tell you that they mean to, but 

 they don't. It is human nature not to 

 do the things we may do any time. A 

 man's neighbors won't make a written
