IMPORTANT CONCESSIONS FROM 
HORTICULTURAL BOARD 
FEDERAL 
At a meeting of the Ornamental Growers Association 
held in New York City early in January, a resolution was 
unanimously adopted for the appointment of a committee 
to ask for an informal conference with the Federal Hor¬ 
ticultural Board, to secure, if possible, a modification of 
Quarantine 37 so as to permit importations of seedlings 
of Japanese Maples, Rhododendron pontieum and Aza¬ 
lea pontica for stock for grafting purposes only. 
The meeting with the Board was arranged for Feb¬ 
ruary 1st and the committee, consisting of C. II. Per¬ 
kins, 2nd, Chairman; F. L. Atkins, Wm. Elemer and 
Thomas B. Meehan, held a very interesting and pleasant 
interview with several members of the Federal Board.

out that unless they might he imported from Europe, 
propagation of Hybrid Rhododendrons, Azalea and the 
several varieties of Japanese Maples could not proceed 
until seedlings could be grown here from seed, which 
would take at least from three to four years. 
The committee gave information to I he Board as to the 
present available stock for grafting purpose and the 
length of time it would take to grow the seedlings of suit¬ 
able size, from seed, all of which appeared to coincide 
with the knowledge on the subject already acquired by 
them. 
The Board agreed to allow, under special permit, seed¬ 
lings of these plants, three years old and under, without 
earth, to he imported for a period of two years. The 
committee from the Ornamental Growers Association 
agreeing that at the expiration of that period there would 
be no request from the Association for an extension of 
time. 
The committee gave the Board the names and ad¬ 
dresses of the members of the Association so that imme¬ 
diate notification of their action could he sent to them. 
Nurserymen intending tb import these stocks should 
apply to the Federal Horticultural Board at Washington, 
D. C., for “Form 207” on which they must make their ap¬ 
plication for the special permit. 
BEWARE OF HOME BREW 
Somebody sent the editor of the Poketown Gazette a few bottles 
of home brew. The same day he received for publication a wed¬ 
ding announcement and a notice of an auction sale. Here are 
the results: “Wm. Smith and Miss Lucy Anderson were disposed 
of at public auction at my farm one mile east of a beautiful clus¬ 
ter of roses on her breast and two white calves, before a back¬ 
ground of farm implements too numerous to mention in the pres¬ 
ence of about seventy guests, including one bob sled. Rev. Jackson 
tied the milch cows, six mules and one nuptial knot with 200 feet 
of hay rope and the bridal couple left on one good John Deere 
gang plow for an extended trip with terms to suit purchasers. 
They will be at home to their friends wth one good baby buggy 
and a few kitchen utensils after ten months from date of sale to 
responsible parties and some fifty chickens.”— Grove, Oklct., Sun.
