AUGUST PLANTING 
Of Conifers (Cone-bearing Trees) and Broad-leaf Evergreens ( Rhododen- 
drons, etc.), saves a year’s time! 
THE CAROLINA HEMLOCK 
The rarest and most beautiful American 
Evergreen 
Prof. Sargent, Director of the Arnold Arbore- 
tum says: “The handsomest of the Hemlocks 
which can be grown in Massachusetts and one 
of the most beautiful trees in the Arboretum 
is **** Tsuga caroliniana.” 
“Its dense dark foliage, sweeping, semi-pendu- 
lous branches, and eventually pyramidal form 
combine to give a distinctive charm not known 
in other evergreens. Extremely hardy and 
adaptable to city conditions. Unrivaled as a 
single specimen, in groups or for large mass 
effects. As a Hedge Plant, Carolina Hemlock 
may be sheared readilyand cannotbetoohighly 
recommended for this use.”

SOME NOTES FROM THE 
AMERICAN ROSE SOCIETY 
COME of the recent activities of the Americ 
^ Rose Society seem of sufficient general s U 
nificance to pass on to our readers. The sec : 
tary, Mr. Wister, reports a pilgrimage in eai 
June to the garden of Dr. Walter Van Fleet ft 
Bell, Md., “to inspect the many new and beau ^ 
ful Rose hybrids, which are to be disseminat: 
through the offices of The American Rose S 
ciety and its Nurserymen members. 
“The chief interest centred in the RosejvJ-' 
C. 124, which is to be officially christened ‘Ma , 
Wallace’ at the Portland Rose Festival in Ju 
and which is to be disseminated in the fall of 19 ,, 
and spring of 1923. Of great interest also we }j 
W. H. T. 237, W. S. 18, and many others whii 
were covered with blossoms despite the unfavc j’ 
able season and which it is hoped may be disseir 
nated in the future under similar arrangemeni 
“Plans for the propagation and disseminatii 
of the Rose ‘Mary Wallace’ (Van Fleet W. 1 
124) were perfected and announcements ha’ 
been sent to all Nurserymen who are believed « 
be interested in participating in the propagatic 1 
of this Rose under the conditions drawn up by tl 
U. S. Department of Agriculture and The Arne 
ican Rose Society. Chief among such cona- 
tions are propagation in time to allow dissemin^! 
tion in fall of 1922 and spring of 1923, and til 
selling of the resulting plants at $2.ooeach, payi 
to The American Rose Society a royalty on ea 
plant sold during the first selling year. A 
rose-growing member who issues a retail cat 
logue and who has not received the official ail 
nouncement and blank contract may secui" 
these by writing the Secretary’s office at one) 
A deposit of $50.00 is required with each contrai 
as an evidence of good faith. Applicatior 
will not be accepted after July 1st. 
“There was a long discussion on the policy of th 
Society in regard to the registration of Rose^ 
having names either identical or similar to Rose" 
previously introduced; and it was voted that th 
Executive Committee should have authority t , 
refuse registration in such cases.” 
Mr. Wister also reports the re-election (for on s 
year) of the following officers: President, Robet • 
Pyle; Vice-President, F. L. Atkins; Treasurei [ 
C. H. Totty; Secretary, John C. Wister. L 
The directors re-elected (for three years) are r 
l. 
J. H. Dunlop, W. R. Pierson, Robert Simpson.
