The Wooster Nursery Co., Wooster, 

 O., has increased its capital stock from 

 $10,000 to $50,000. 



The death of P. J. flallberg, for many 

 years in the nursery business at Em- 

 poria, Kan., is reported in this week's 

 obituary column. 



The nursery of Pottenger Bros., at 

 Waldron, HI., has been purchased by 

 .Tames W. Pottenger, of, Kankakee, 111., 

 and the stock will be transferred to his 

 tliirty-acre farm at the latter city. Mar- 

 shall A. Pottenger, the former owner, will 

 be connected with the new concern as 

 landscape gardener and salesman. The 

 business will hereafter be conducted under 

 the name of the Kankakee Nursery Co. 



Fritz Hubee, Jr., of the Jennings 

 Nursery Co., Jennings, La., narrowly 

 escaped death recently while he was 

 blasting with dynamite, preparing ground 

 for tree planting, near town. He had 

 two sticks of dynamite in a pail of water, 

 and while standing over the pail a stick 

 exploded in the ground, causing an ex 

 plosion of the two sticks in the pail, 

 injuring his leg badly and severely bruis 

 ing other parts of his body. 



Z. C. Smith, Maywood, 111., in speak- 

 ing of the incorporation of the Maywood 

 Nursery Co., says : ' ' This was done only 

 to protect the name, no stock being of- 

 fered to anyone, and no change will 

 be made of any kind. This nursery is 

 owned by me, and as I have been doin^ 

 business for years under the name of 

 Maywood Nurseries, I did not want 

 anyone else to be able to use the name, 

 as could have been done by starting a 

 corporation." Mr. Smith's specialty is 

 ornamentals. 



EVEBGBEEN SEEDLINGS. 



The U. S. Board of General Apprais- 

 ers still is engaged in laying down rul- 

 ings as to what are and what are not 

 evergreen seedlings. The coUeetors at 

 the various ports are in the habit of 

 assessing duty on pretty nearly every- 

 thing in the way of nursery stock at 

 twenty-five per cent, leaving it to the 

 importer to demonstrate that the plants 

 are indeed evergreen in character and 

 grown from seeds, in which case they 

 are entitled to free entry as evergreen 

 seedlings in accordance with the deci- 

 sion in the Rolker case, G. A. 5305. In 

 the case of Harris, recently reported, 

 Abies Nordmanniana, Abies brachjr- 

 phylla, Taxus baccata and Skimmia
