J. Glenn Teall, of Columbus, Mont., 

 has purchased a tract of land near Kalis- 

 pell, Mont., and will start a nursery 

 there. / 



Two additional tracts of land near 

 Mobile, Ala., were recently purchased by 

 the Webster-Mobile Nurseries, and plant- 

 ing will be started as soon as they are 

 cleared. 



The Phoenix Nursery Co., of Bloom- 

 ington, 111., recently had a force of men 

 at work planting shrubbery on Broadway, 

 in Normal, 111., and otherwise improving 

 the street. 



The next thing on the nurseryman's 

 program, now that the spring rush is 

 over, is the June convention — the annual 

 experience meeting. Prospects are for an 

 unusually large attendance. 



J. Dykhuis, of Felix & Dykhuis, Bos- 

 koop, was at Chicago last week on his 

 eleventh annual trip. Mr. Dykhuis is the 

 secretary of the Pomologische Vereenig- 

 ing, or horticultural society, at Boskoop. 



The nursery season is over except in a 

 few far northern localities. It has been 

 a big rush, and it has not figured up, in 

 all cases, to as good a total as was antici- 

 pated. Autumn planting must be en- 

 couraged. 



The plans of Tetley, Merriam & 

 Childs, Riverside, Cal., to increase their 

 citrus nursery holdings are revealed in 

 the purchase by Frank A. Tetley of 

 sixty-three acres in the Vista Grande 

 tract, two miles northeast of High- 

 grove, on the Redlands road. The land 

 is unimproved, with the exception of 

 pumping plant and pipe system over the 

 entire acreage. The latter development 

 was made by the seller, A. D. Bell, who 

 receives $15,000 for the tract. 



INSPECTION IN COLORADO. 



In the state of Colorado in 1911 the 

 horticultural inspectors condemned only 

 29,476 out of a total of 1,284,509 fruit 

 trees shipped into the state from out- 

 side nurseries. The record is as fol- 

 lows: 



Variety. Inspected. Condemned. 



Apple 864,946 26,077 



Pear 67,916 735 



Peach, Plum and Apricot. . 125.329 1,696 



Cherry 236,318 1,060 



Totals 1,284,509 29,476 



The report of the state entomologist, 

 Clarence P. Gillette, just issued, will be 

 full of interest to nurserymen, as it 

 shows every shipment of nursery stock
