Meption The Review when you write 



vation; if for beds, these should be 

 six feet wide, with the rows eight 

 inches apart by two inches in the row. 

 Leave only the top bud exposed when 

 well firmed in the ground. It is usu- 

 ally best to bed the rows, as that af- 

 fords better drainage during periods of 

 heavy rainfall. 



Should frost lift the cuttings before 

 they root, they should be pushed down 

 to firm ground. This, however, may be 

 done but once — .i^st before the cuttings 

 begin to root. Some growers cover the 

 cuttings entirely when planted in the 

 fall, but unless they are uncovered just 

 at the right time the following spring 

 inaiiv cuttings are lost.

THE BEBCKMANS BUSINESS. 



Referring to an item which recently 

 has gone the rounds of the press, stat- 

 ing that the property on which the 

 nursery is conducted has passed to P. J. 

 Berckmans' widow by deed of gift, P. 

 J. Berckmans Co. makes the following 

 statement: 



"The business of the Fruitland Nurs- 

 ery is conducted by a corporation under 

 the well-known name of P. J. Berck- 

 mans Co. The entire stock of this cor- 

 poration is owned or controlled by the 

 late Mr. Berckmans' sons, X.ouis A., 

 Robert C. and Prosper J. A. Berck- 

 mans, Jr. The company conducts its 

 nursery business upon lands leased to it 

 by the late Mr. Berckmans for the en- 

 tire life of the corporation. Some years 

 ago the late Mr. Berckmans made a 

 deed of gift of a portion of the leased 

 lands to his wife and confirmed this 

 deed by his will, but neither the deed 

 nor the will interfered with the lease. 



"The Berckmans nursery business 

 will be conducted as heretofore by the 

 corporation, and at the expiration of its 

 charter life the majority stockholders, 

 consisting of Mr. Berckmans' sons, will 

 continue in the same business, either as 

 a corporation or as individuals. Their 

 father left to them a large tract of 

 land, which in connection with other 

 lands controlled and owned by his sons, 

 will be amply sufl^cient for the conduct 

 and enlargement of the business hereto- 

 fore conducted." 



Germantown, Pa. — The greenhouses of 

 Charles Gottsabend, at 33 School lane,
