THE NATIONAL NURSERYMAN. 
GRIFFING BROTHERS’ NEW OFFICE. 
Griffing Brothers Company have removed their headquar¬ 
ters from Macclenny to Jacksonville, Fla. 
The object of this move is to facilitate managing the busi¬ 
ness part of their extensive nurseries, and to be more centrally 
located for the new branches they have just,added to their 
business, namely: A mail order seed department, offering a 
complete line of garden and field seed for the entire South; a 
poultry establishment; a mail order implement and supply de¬ 
partment. All their nursery stock is grown at Macclenny, 
with the same careful attention as in the past, together with 
such seed as it is practical to grow in that climate. 
NURSERY STOCK INSPECTORS. 
Secretary of Agriculture Hamilton at Harrisburg, Pa., has 
announced the appointment of the following inspectors of nur¬ 
sery stock in Pennsylvania for the year ending July 31, 1900: 
George C. Butz, State College, for the Western District of 
Pennsylvania; Prof. S. B. Heiges, York, for the Southern Dis¬ 
trict, and F. M. Bertram. 21 South Twelfth street, Philadel¬ 
phia, for the Eastern District. 
Professor S. T. Maynard says that the old varieties of apples 
are running out and cites the Baldwin as an example. The 
varieties which he calls new, and which he says are coming 
more into vogue, are Sutton, Palmer, McIntosh, Wealthy and 
Gano. None of these, except possibly the last, is in reality 
new. All are good, says the Country Gentleman. Palmer, is 
little known, except locally. We suppose that this is the same 
as Palmer Greening, or more properly, Washington Royal.
