THE NATIONAL NURSERYMAN 
James McHutchison says the two most important sub¬ 
jects now before the Nurserymen are: 
1. The embargo placed by the British authorities on 
Belgium shipments which will prevent fall shipment 
of Azaleas, etc., being made from Belgium unless the 
embargo is lifted before fall. 
2. The policy of the Federal Horticultural Board un¬ 
der the Department of Agriculture at Washington con¬ 
tinuing to add items of nursery stock to the list ol those 
under quarantine. The Nurseryman of the United Slates 
have enough to contend with these days, and we should 
look to our Government for encouragement and help in¬ 
stead of legitimate trade being continuously harassed by 
Government officials. 
Nurserymen should not forget that there is now a 
National Rose Garden at Washington, D. C. This was 
dedicated on June 2nd. The garden is at Arlington 
Farms, Virginia, just across the Potomac from Washing¬ 
ton, and although not very extensive at present, it is likely 
to be one of the finest gardens of its kind in time. 
The chairman of the committee during the dedication 
ceremonies was Mr. Robert Pyle, of the Conard & Jones 
Company, West Grove, Penna. 
The Moon Nursery Corporation, White Plains: $25,000; 
J. Edward Moon, Henry T. Moon and E. Wright Peter¬ 
son; Giffin & Hannon, No. 115 Broadway.
