Romance of
The hawthorn

Few people know anything about the ro-
nance Of the hawthorn, and yet it consti-
tutes one OF the most interesting features
OF American horticultural history Eigh-
teen years ago only sixteen species Of haw-
thorn were known to exist in this country.
Botansts felt sure that at best only a few
other species would ever be discovered.
Now, under the direction of Professor
Charles S Sargent. $50 distinct species
have been located. More than 450 species
have been grown to Towering size and have
been named and catalogued. America has
more species Of hawthorn than all the
rest of the world put together. and many
OF them are exceedingly ornamental, al
though yet but little known in gardens.
Not only do they make q wonderful dis
play when they bloom, but many kinds
carry their red fruits well into the winter
months and even until spring
While not neglecting the native plants,
horticulturists will not, of course, overlook
good introductions from abroad, and these
introductions will be made in spite of the
Horticultural Boards ruling 1t is still
possible to bring in seeds and foreign plants

AS matter of fact, most important

and other Japanese dependencies. Mr.. Will

Amateur growers sometimes complain
that their named lilacs gradually reverted

Among all tho new plants introduced in
recent years, perhaps mono are of moro
value than the Cotoncastcrs, with their
twenty or more species. There are tall
and trailing kinds, many of which have
handsome white flowers. and several of
them carry great quantities Of crimson
fruit into the fall months, thus being orna-
mental at both ends of the season
In this connection something may be said
about the evident disposition on the part
of many people to make their gardens hand
some in the fall and winter months, as we'll
as in the summer. This really is not a
new idea, however, for long ago Francis
Bacon wrote:

Gardens. there ought to be Gardens. for
all the Moneths of the Yeare: In which,
sevcrally, Things of Beautie, may be then

dens and do the high bush cranberries,

Congress viii
Hear of 1t

1t is safe to say that the bitter fight
now being carried on will reach Congress
when that body next convenes. Apparently,
though. the horticultural board is thor
oughly intrenchcd in its position, and
there Is every reason to believe that the
flower growers Of tho country must face q
new situation. OF course, they are not
going to be left without an abundance Of
good Towering and ornamental plants. II
the list were limited to those native to this
country, there still would BIO enough to
make an excellen. showing. As i. is, most
OF tho foreign subjects can be grown here
in time. Indeed, there are already nur-
series devoted largely to foreign born
specics. On Cape Cod for example. acres
OF land are TO bs found given over to tho
Regal lily, which Ernest II. Wilson, Of the

besides the ever present fear OF hoshc.
Vlsm the longer headed men Of the country
fear for the trede future. Take this.
Holland is essentially agricultural and
the industries are incidental. aside from
shipping, if that may be called an industre.
We have prospercd in the past because the
workers of Germany and England have
made money and we're able TO buy foodstufs
IN great quantities. But the burden Of the
war will be such and the world viii be 50
down for many years TO conc that tho
worker will not have the money to buy food
lavishy. That viii hit Us in our agricult-
ural and dairy products and in the ship
ping that arose because of them, and hence
we do not any bright future CA
not understand just where the world s
going but certainly it is not going Hoi-
lands way"
But what about the great German stocks
that were supposed to be in Holland and the
grip which Germany has upon the whole in
dustry and finance of Holland2 That talk
is largely inspired by vivid Imagination.
There are no great German or any other
sort Of stocEe in Holland, with the poss
bic exception OF bulbs that have not had
shipping facilities.
have asked men in high positions who
are known to be pro-Ally about these stocks.
men such as {. J. x. van Aalst. the head of
the Netherlands Overseas Trust, who is the
conidant of the Allied powers. and they
know nothing OF such stocks Likewise
have inquired. among bankers and shippers
generally, and among them they know tho
contents Of practically every warehouse IN
Holland for it IS such a tidy country that
little can be hidden-and have yet to 10
cate stock. And as for German goods be
ing sent out under Dutch names, there will
be little attempt at that except from fac
tories in Holland which happen to be cor
trolled by Germans. The Germans do not
control greater proportion of Hollands in
dustries than they did of England's or
Americas. The Dutch are keenly alive 70
the reputation OF the Germans in the world,
and they are more intent than any one else
in seeing that Hollands products are not
confused with Germany's.
The little country has struggled through
a more trying time than any one outside can
imagine, and It has no intention of being
caught in any sort of a mesh be that mesh
of Allied or of German manufacture.
German commercial agents are crowdine
Holland, but they arc not selling ANYTHING
first because they have nothing to deliver
excepting the articles made Of wood hbre
and the chemicals. These they cannot dc
liver until the import restrictions are re
moved But tho second obstacle is the rata
OF exchanges and until the rate of exchange
Ia settled there can be nothing but actual
barter between these countries. The dis.
counts are far too heavy FOR other than ex.
traordnary trade.
