FRUITLAND NURSERIES Bsti$T p. J. bercSmans co. 5. This is one of four Camellia Japonicas that we moved a distance of five miles during the month ofJuly and planted in our Nurseries. The plant in the picture weighed two and a half tons and is living to-day. It is very difficult to move such a tree, but with our facilities and experience, it can be done suc-cessfully. After transplanting, special care and attention must be given, otherwise the result will bedisastrous. We do not advocate transplanting during Summer months, but where proper care and attention isgiven after the plant is moved, there is no reason why it cannot be done if circumstances require it. Cedar Rust—Use seven pounds of atomic sulphur,two pounds of arsenate of lead to each fifty gallonsof water. Spray the trees at the same period as re-commended for Scab. Green or Black Aphis—Spray with Black Leaf 40at the rate of one part to 200 or 300 parts of water,as soon as the Aphis appear. San Jo
