“The Price We Pay for Bad Roads, 
by Agnes C. Laut, reprinted from “Col- 
lier's,” and “The Farmers’ Interest in 
Road Improvement,” an address by T. 
C. Laylin, Master Ohio State Grange, 
delivered at Cleveland last September, 
are tracts earnestly appealing to those 
most interested to push a material re- 
form which will redound both to the 
individual and community wealth of the 
country, and advancing arguments for 
the cause which are practically unassail- 
able, 
Mr, John Boddy, for two years past 
the city forester of Cleveland, O,, will 
not seek reappointment. During his oc- 
cupancy of the office he has introduced 
many reforms and has placed the care 
of the city’s trees on a scientific basis. 
The nursery facilities have been great- 
ly increased under his administration. 
The publisher acknowledges, with 
many thanks, the receipt of a bunch of 
mistletoe grown on an elm in Wheeler 
Park, Oklahoma City, which reached 
the office, secured in a barrel, in excel- 
lent shape. It is an interesting and fine 
specimen of this historical plant, and we 
are indebted to the president of the 
Park Board, Mr. Will H. Clark, as well 
as to the superintendent, Mr. C. E. 
Franke, for this seasonable gift. 
Mr. John E. Freudenberger, of Day- 
ton, Ohio, for three years in practical 
charge of carrying out the Olmsted 
Bros, plans on the National Cash Reg- 
ister Co.’s grounds at Dayton, is now 
soliciting business as a landscape gar- 
dener and contractor. During 1909 he 
carried out some $20,000 of improve- 
ments, one a $10,000 job at the Ohio 
State Sanitarium, Mt. Vernon, also 
from plans of Olmsted Bros. A num- 
ber of private places at Dayton, Ham- 
ilton and Miamisburg were also planted 
and improved. Mr. Freudenberger’s 
record in good work accomplished ap- 
-pears to be a growing one. 
Announcement is made of the with- 
drawal of Fred’k W. Kelsey from the 
American Nursery Co. and of a new 
organization under the firm name of F.

CONCRETE POTTERY AND 
GARDEN FURNITURE 
By RALPH C. DAVIDSON 
16mo. (514 ri 714 inches). 196 pa^es. 140 illustrations. 
T his work should appeal strongly to all of those interested 
in ornamental concrete as the author has taken up and ex- 
plained in detail in a most practical manner the various 
methods of casting concrete into ornamental shapes. The au- 
thor has taken for granted that the reader knows nothing what- 
ever about the material and has explained each progressive step 
in the various operations throughout in detail. These directions 
have been supplemented with half-tones and line illustrations 
which are so clear that no one can misunderstand them.
