Hor,,eu,.ur., observations.

At the last meeting of the Illinois
State Horticultural Society President
Dunlap made the remark that he had,
just visited the meeting of the Cen
trail Horticultural Society held zoo
miles away. and had picked UP points
that would be worth hundreds OF dol
lars to him the coming year. This
shows the value Of these meetings to
the fruit growers. Mr., Dunlap is a
veteran in fruit growing and has been
attending horticultural meetings for
good part of his, life. Yet he finds each
meeting valuable. Now, If he needs
20 attend such Conventions what can
be said Of the sordinary StruitSgr2wer
who never attended such a meeting in
his life? 1t is astonishing that more
fruit raisers do not make an effort to
be present at these meetings.
With the approach of spring men
are thinking about the work to be
done in the garden and orchards. Not
the least important is the transplant
ing OF trees and plants. In this york
one thing should not be forgotten and
that is to keep the roots moist while
out Of the ground. There are some
trees and plants that may not be in
jured greatly by having the roots dry
out, but so many are injured that it
is safe to keep the roots of all moist,
Many times straw berry plants are dug
and allowed to lie exposed to the wind
and sun. The roots become thoroughly
dry. When they are replanted the
planter wonders why they do not grow.
With evergreen trees dry roots are
fatal. The Iootlets exude a gummy
substance that dries with the drying
roots. When replanted this gummy
substance prevents all action of water
on the roots. In the transplanting of
evergreens therefore dry roots should
be especially avoided.
We are pleased to see the growth OF
sentiment in favor Of the use OF oXes
in the packing and marketing OF ap
pies. We believe that this will greatly
increase the consumption of that f..lit.
California has set the style on this
and some OF the states east OF the
Rocky Mountains are rapidly follow
ing the example of that state. The
orchardists of Colorado are using
boxes in large numbers. The fruit
raisers there to some extent get the
benefit of the reputation California
has built up, for the eastern buyers do
not stop to distinGs sh between Colo
RADIO and California apples, so long as
they are in boxes. Up to the present
time. however, only the fancy fruit is
thus packed, the poorer grades going
in barrels. 1t would doubtless how
ever. be an advantage TO the buyers
to have all aDDleS in hDSes

and shrubs. $4,000; about 10000 square feet
of asphalt cost of about $4,000; picket
fences and plinth blocks around the park and
around the Fairgrounds at cost of about ST.

bat toilet rooms for men and women. sepa-
rate shelters, balcony for rest and toolroOm in
basement TO cost about S3S.50O and. in addi
ton TO this. twenty extra baths under the side
walks at a cost of about $4,000. When these i'm
provements are made Seward Park instead of
being lot of mounds of dirt amid squad sur
roundings, will be of the beauty spots of the
