This vreek's obituary column contains 

 a report of the death of George A. Sweet, 

 a nurseryman of Dansville, N. Y. 



The American Forestry Co., South 

 Framingham, Mass., has been awarded 

 the silver medal of the Massachusetts 

 Horticultural Society for nurseries of 

 forest trees. 



The Glenn County Nursery Co. has 

 been incorporated here, with a capital 

 stock of .$25,000, by A. H. Bacharach, 

 Mrs. Hannah Bacharach and Attorney 

 A. J. Zumwalt. The company is empow- 

 ered to do a general nursery and canning 

 and preserving business. 



The will of the late Joshua I. Max- 

 well, the nurseryman of Geneva, N. Y., 

 has been admitted to probate and his 

 estate is estimated to be worth $500,000. 

 Of this amount, about $40,000 has been 

 bequeathed to institutions connected with 

 the Presbyterian denomination. Several 

 of his immediate heirs receive $14,000 

 each. 



In order to add to the membership of 

 the Texas State Horticultural Society, 

 prizes for those who secure the most new 

 members have been offered by Griflfing 

 Bros. Co., Port Arthur; Stark Bros. Co., 

 Louisiana, Mo.; the Texas Nursery Co., 

 Sherman; the Austin Nursery Co., Aus- 

 tin; W. A. Stockwell, of Alvin, and other 

 nurserymen. 



F. W. Watson & Co., the nurserymen 

 of Topeka, Kan., have completed a new 

 warehouse, erected at a cost of about 

 $5,000. The Union Pacific railway has 

 laid a side track to the building. It is 

 expected that between seventy-five and 

 100 carloads of trees, chiefly fruit trees, 

 will be graded and slipped from the 

 plant during the winter. 



PBOPAOATION OF HOLLT. 



On a property we acquired a few 

 weeks ago we find an old holly tree, 

 over two feet in diameter, standing 

 alone in an open field. The tree is as 

 tall and broad as an old apple tree, and 

 the top has a fair sprinkling of red 

 berries. The severe freezing of last 

 winter evidently did not injure it in 

 the least. Evidently it is hardy in 

 Pennsylvania. As this is the only tree 

 we know to be a native, we are anxious 

 to know how to propagate from this 

 specimen. M. & S.

American holly, Ilex opaca. The most 

 popular method of propagation is by 

 seeds. These can be gathered when 

 fully ripe, stratified by being kept 

 in dry sand over winter and sown in 

 flats or frames containing any light 

 soil free from manure and fairly sandy. 

 The seeds will not germinate until the 

 second season, so do not become ner- 

 vous over their non-appearance. This 

 holly may also be propagated by short 

 cuttings of the mature wood, rooting in 

 a cool greenhouse in winter. Plant the 

 cuttings in clear sand and keep them 

 well watered. Still another method of
