 Thlrty-seTenth annual meeting, Boston, June 12 

 to 14, 1912. 



The Pacific Coast Nurserymen's Asso- 

 ciation is holding its annual conTention 

 at Salt Lake City this week. 



J. B. PHiKiNGTON, of Portland, Ore., 

 will attend the Boston convention next 

 week for the purpose of inviting the 

 American Association of Nurserymen to 

 hold its 1913 convention in Portland. 



^ The Gulf Coast Nurserymen's Associa- 

 tion held its annual meeting at Port 

 Arthur, Tex., June 2 and 3. Sunday was 

 devoted to the social features, with the 

 business session and the visits to local 

 nurseries on Monday. 



AccoBDiNO to the U. S. census, a 

 bulletin on the subject having been issued 

 May 22, there were in 1910 a total of 

 1,276,366 farms reporting bearing pear 

 trees to the aggregate of 15,172,000, 

 with 8,804,000 trees that had not yet 

 reached the bearing age. 



W. M. Allen, manager of the 

 Northwestern Nursery Co., of Baraboo, 

 Wis., has purchased W. J. Harrison's 

 nursery stock, with the exception of the 

 strawberry department. Included in the 

 purchase is a general variety of apples, 

 plums, cherries and small shrubbery. Mr. 

 Harrison expects to give his whole at- 

 tention in the future to the strawberry 

 business, which has become extensive. 



The American Association of Nursery- 

 men is more nearly national, in so far as 

 its travels go, than any other of the 

 trade bodies. It has met in Dallas and 

 in Denver, but this year goes back to 

 New England, after a long absence. The 

 Boston meeting is expected to add con- 

 siderably to the eastern membership. 

 The wholesalers, who represent the old 

 guard, always are on the job, no matter 

 where the association meets. 



HARDY PLANT FOE HEDOma. 



Please recommend a shrub for hedges, 

 to take the place of California privet. 

 I want one that will make a fine hedge 

 and is hardy, so that it will not be 

 winter-killed so easily as privet. My 

 location is southern Missouri. 



W. A. C. 



Ligustrum ovalifolium, California 

 privet, is a pretty and quick-growing 

 hedge plant, and, being cheap, it is much 

 overplanted. It is too unreliable for 

 use in the colder states; 10 to 15 de- 

 grees below zero will nearly always 

 kill it to the ground, and sometimes
