HilU Des Moines. la., President; C. M Hobbs, Bridgeport. lod., Vice-President; George C Seager, Rochester, N. Y., Sec'y. ThTrty-third annual convention to be held at Milwaukee, AVis., June, 1908. J^ Viburnum Lentago, or the nanny- Iberry, is very fine now in sheltered iplaces. No excuse can be made on account of the weather for being behind with out- 'door work this season.

The Indianapolis Forest and Nursery ?Co. has been incorporated at Indian- apolis, Ind., with capital $20,000. The ?directors are W. H. Moore, E. A. Henby and J. R. Canfield. Omaha, Neb.—L. O. Perley, C. S. Hayward, T. J. Nolan and E. M. Gibson liave engaged Howard E. Weed, a Chi- •cago landscape gardener, to beautify the ;grounds of their country homes on the Dodge street road. Dayton, O.—The George Peters Nursery Co. notified the service board that they would plant any number of trees and shrubs desired at 36 cents 'each.

Spokane, Wash.—R. A. Jones, pro- 3)rietor of the Riverside Nurseries, spent a few days recently looking over the prospects for a nursery near Brewster. He was well pleased with the outlook and selected 100 acres of choice land on the Riverview acreage, below the town, for the site of his new enterprise. It is estimated that 1,000 acres of fruit trees will be set out in the vicinity of Brewster next spring, and that each year the fruit-growing industry will increase at a rapid rate. This alone would fur- nish a very good business for a nursery, to say nothing
