D. M. Andrews, Boulder, Colo., has 

 published an excellent vest-pocket mon- 

 ograph entitled "The Planting and Care 

 of Street Trees in Colorado." It in- 

 cludes a classified descriptive list of 

 recommended varieties. 



The nursery firm of Peyton & Barnes, 

 at Boonville, Mo., has been dissolved by 

 mutual consent. Mr. Barnes retains the 

 old firm name, Boonville Nurseries, and 

 is planning to have even better facilities 

 than formerly for the transaction of busi- 

 ness. Mr. Peyton is understood to have 

 taken over three-fourths of the growing 

 nursery stock and a large part of the 

 propagating equipment, and has organ- 

 ized the firm of T. E. Peyton & Sons, 

 whose establishment will bear the name, 

 Pevton Nurseries. 



WILL RETURN DUTIES. 



In response to an inquiry from the 

 collector of customs at Boston the Sec- 

 retary of the Treasury has written: 



"I have to state that the duties de- 

 posited on nursery stock, etc., found to 

 be in violation of the plant-quarantine 

 act of August 20, 1912, and the regula- 

 tions thereunder in T. D. 33071 of 

 .lanuary 8, 1913, and exported or de- 

 stroyed, may be refunded from 'Excess 

 of Deposits ' upon proper evidence of 

 exportation or destruction. 



"Such exportation shall be under 

 customs supervision. Evidence of de- 

 struction shall be in the form of a 

 certificate of a customs officer or of a 

 representative of the Department of 

 Agriculture. The certificate should 

 specify the kind and amount of stock 

 so destroyed, the number of the permit 

 of the Department of Agriculture, and 

 the name of the importer. A certifi- 

 cate of a state department of agricul- 

 ture to the fact of destruction may be 

 accepted when verified by a representa- 

 tive of the United States Department 

 of Agriculture." 



NEW ENGLAND ASSOCIATION. 



The election of a new board of officers 

 and tlie appointment of a committee to 

 give publicity to the fact that New Eng- 

 land, and particularly Massachusetts, is 

 not the hotbed of insect pests and that 

 the six states form a most desirable sec- 

 tion of the country for the purchase of 

 nursery stock, formed the chief business 

 at the session of the New England Nur- 

 serymen 's Association at Worcester, 

 Mass., February 2.5 and 26. ~
