 of white flowers nothing is more attractive, 

 and while not an evergreen, the vivid 

 green wood makes it appear bright during 

 the winter. Plants may be set 2 feet apart.

Mr. Jno. P. Brown, Secretary of Inter- 

 national Society of Arboriculture, was in 

 New Orleans, last summer in the interest 

 of some northern capitalistis to select a site 

 in this State for the establishment of a 

 Catalpa farm, as this tree grows more rap- 

 idly than any other and can be raised for 

 timber of all kinds, such as fine furnitures 

 and the most elegant finish for the interior 

 of the houses, etc., as well as for large 

 posts and railroad ties.

 and it has been found that they grow more 

 rapidly and to a larger size in this southern
