William C. Mooee & Co., Newark, 

 N. J., have a new concrete office building 

 65x110 and four stories high. A retail 

 business through agents is done. Wilson 

 M. Gould is president and general man- 

 ager. 



The California Nurseries and Orchards 

 have been incorporated at Los Angeles, 

 Cal., with a capital stock of $250,000. 

 The directors are G. M. Boyd, F. H. 

 Smith, F. E. Dillon, E. D. Terrell and 

 P. D. Barnhart. 



Peter Youngeks, C. H. Barnard and 

 G. A. Marshall are the members of a 

 committee appointed by the state board 

 of horticulture to draft a bill providing 

 for the inspection of nursery stock, to 

 be introduced in the Nebraska legislature 

 this winter. 



The nurserymen throughout the coun- 

 try are planning for a big trade next 

 year. Agricultural conditions are favor- 

 able to a large planting. Some varieties 

 of apple trees will be short, but on the 

 whole there will be a very satisfactory 

 supply to offer. Small fruit stock will 

 be in great demand. 



Wade R. Maktin, of Lincoln, Neb., 

 has purchased an interest in the Yager 

 Nursery, at Fremont, Neb., and will be- 

 come a partner of J. A. Yager in man- 

 aging the business. The firm name will 

 be Yager & Martin. The nursery at Lin- 

 coln will be continued and the plantings 

 at Fremont will be considerably extended. 



At the last annual convention of the 

 American Association of Nurserymen, 

 Portland, Ore., was selected as the place 

 in which to hold the annual convention of 

 1913, but the dates for the convention 

 were left in the hands of the executive 

 conlmittee for the purpose of consulting 

 with the trade organization on the coast. 

 The executive committee has now decided 

 upon June 18 to 20 for the convention. 



William Wilson, a nurseryman of 

 southern California, has purchased what 

 is known as the Abies tract, which lies 

 three miles east of Hemet, extends from 

 the eastern edge of the Hemet tract to 

 Valle Vista and contains 491 acres. The 

 purchase price, it is said, was approxi- 

 mately $60,000. The new owner con- 

 templates extensive water development. 

 More than a hundred acres are being 

 prepared now to be set to apricot or- 

 chard. The improvements now in con- 

 templation will require an expenditure 

 of at least $20,000.

THE EUROPEAN VIEW. 



Large consignments of peonies leave 

 the Boskoop nurseries every autumn, 

 mainly exported to Canada and the 

 United States. Of course, not every 

 root is properly cleared from the dead 

 stems, and those dried stems frequently 

 contain the small black spores of the 

 fungus Botrytis paeonia?. In the Bos- 

 koop Advertiser the inspector of the 

 Phytopathologic Service at Boskoop 

 draws the attention of exporters 

 to the fact that the Department of 

 Agriculture at Washington is at present 

 making an exact study of peony dis- 

 eases, and it is possible that under the 

 recent Plant Quarantine Act further im- 

 port regulations will be issued; also the 

 import of peonies will only be permitted 

 when accompanied with a certificate of 

 freedom from injurious plant diseases. 

 Although the export of peonies is near- 

 ly at an end for this season, it would be 

 advisable to carefully remove and burn
