REPORTS, ETC., RECEIVED 
The Transactions of the Illinois State 
Horticultural Society for 1907 gives 
complete proceedings of the annual meet- 
ing, and also of the meetings of the 
three district societies and a number of 
county societies ; contains much valu- 
able horticultural matter, including di- 
rections and formulas for making spray 
mixtures; cloth bound, 588 pages; W. 
B. Lloyd, Kinmundy, 111., secretary. 
The latest of those handsome and re- 
markable city plan reports is the one 
prepared by the Plan Commission for 
Columbus, Ohio, an expert body that 
made a thorough study of the city to 
provide broad plans for its civic devel- 
opment. The book is beautifully illus- 
trated with photographs arranged in a 
deadly parallel of what is and what 
ought to be as seen in European cities, 
and views of local scenes that offer 
chances for civic beauty, and plans for 
a civic center, park system, etc. The 
commission was composed of Austin W. 
Lord, Albert Kelsey, Charles N. Low- 
rie, Charles Mulford Robinson, and 
Hermon A, MacNeil, whose names are 
a sufficient ' guarantee of the reliability 
of its recommendations.

PUBLISHER’S NOTES 
The metropolitan park commission of 
Alilwaukee has elected Frank C. Schu- 
macher secretary. Mr. Schumacher is 
also secretary of the city park commis- 
sion. 
A power sprayer that will throw the 
solution over and into a large-sized fruit 
tree and will maintain the pressure nec- 
essary in thoroughly spraying shade 
trees, also, is now being introduced by 
the Deming Company of Salem, Ohio. 
It is equipped with air-cooled gasoline 
engine and is made in two sizes — V/i 
and 3^2 horsepower. It is thoroughly 
practical and is designed to eliminate un- 
necessary weight and do away with un- 
even wear and loss of power through 
friction. Literature recently issued by 
The Deming Company covers the sub- 
ject thoroughly and in a manner inter- 
esting to those who are following de- 
velopments in this line.
