THE OPENING SEssIons AT THE AGRICULTURAL BUREAU-AN ADDRESS RY COMMISSIONER COLMAN-—MEMBERS OF THE ASSOCIATION PRESENT, The hall in the annex of the Agricultural burean was tastefully docorated with flags this morning, Ateleven o'clock it was thronged with the members of the American association of nursery men, seedmen and florists, who began their annual sesion at that hour. The session will continue until Friday. The present officers are Hon. Norman J. Colman, comissioner of agriculture, president; Franklin Davie, vice President; 'D, Wilmot Scott, of illinols, secre- tary, and A. R. Whitney, of Iilinois, treasurer. When the assoctation assembled this morning Commissioner Colman called it to order and made the opening address. COMMISSIONER COLMAN'S ADDRESS. Mr. Colman, in opening his address, sald the effect of such conventions as this should be to increase the iutelligence of the members, to broaden thelr views not only of their own kpectal work, but thelr views of life and bual- ness generaliy, and greatly te promote their In- teresis. The last census places parcenete ressers together, as id gives their num! 51,482. The nurseryman, be said, is engaged in w useful and most honorabie calling, and one most venerable for its antiquity. it is th Pilimitive calling of man. Wien we consid hus the place which trees hold in connec- tion with human li-e, how closely they are in- torwoven with it in’ all its stages of develop- ment, we see the importance und dignity of the callfng of the nurseryman. wih of the nursery r as The speaker traced the men's art and the modern demands upon He referred ulso to a number of practical ques- Uons calling for attention. When we lvok at itaright the calling of the nurseryman should be regarded as that ofa high and honorable trusteesbip. He stands between his fello man und the great tree worl, of which they are ignorant and of which he has a knowledge, and he is to give them the benefit of that knowledge by showing them how t attain the utmost comfort and pleasure from the growths Of field and forest. THE TREES OF WASHINGTON. “I congratulate you,” Mr. Colman said, “on the fact that this nurserymen’s convention has chosen for its place of assembly this clty, where | Muy be seen on an unequalled scale the effect of planting trees in etreets and parks. Apart froin its attraction as the capital or the nation no place could be more attractive to the nurserymen than this, Here, as no where else in our land is seen the value and the charm Ot trees. How chunged for the worse would Washington become ft, with all Its grand bulld- ings and wide-stretching avenues, its 80,000 trees were removed iroin its streets and’ the thousands more which adorn its parks and va- rious enclosures? It is fortunate that as vis- tors from all portions of our country come to ius cepa on errands of business or pleasure, they have set beiore them this unrivalled ex: ample of the beauty and udornment which are afforded by trees. “Visitors may carry back to thelr village or city homes an impulse to se- | cure the sume effects there, though it may be on @ lesser scale, and which may so easily be done if once there is a will to do it Andin tuis view, not least in importance is the | lesson affurded by those smaller reservations or triangular spaces created by the intersec- tion of our streets witu the avenues which cross them at various angles, and which tue visitor meets so oien in hes walks or drives about the city, These show how those small and usuuily waste places, to be ound in many of our towns and ges, which often are worse than waste, pusiive blemishes if not ab- solute nulaances, ‘muy be converted into ob- Jects of beauty and sources of pleasures, Cer- tainly a company such as this association of uurserymen cau Bandy go home trom such @ sight as is bere presented to them @f the beau- Utying effect ot trees without being eucour- ed in their work or wituout having new cot victions of its importance and its capabilities.” He reierred to the duty bere the nurserymen. Of preserving the forest growths. “Where we bave been planting trees by the hundred or thousand,” he said, “the call is now ior trees by the mfilion, You and others engaged in tbe same occupation are to cluthe the greut ex- panses of the western prairies, tue pluins and Miesas Of the still fartuer west with that cover- ing of trees which is necessury io order to se- cure aud maintain in ull that region u condi- tun of things which will fit it to be the perma- nent abude of the millions who ure now gath- ering Were and the millions more who are iol- lowiug their immigrant poo ep For this granver work, as weil as for ail orvamental Planting around our homes and by the way- side, we buve a wealth of tree species equal wo all our needs.” COMMITTEES.

GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS NOT ALLOWED TO SLEEP IN PUBLIC BUILDINGS, ‘The Treasury department recently sent a cir cularletter to the custodians of the various public buildings calling attention to the in- creased consumption of gas in the buildings under their charge. This letter brought a response from the collector at Austin, Texas, stating that the Dill to which his attention bad been called, was caused by government officials occupying rooms at night in the public building. He ex- plained that the district attorney ‘and the marshal occupied such rooms as their sleep- ing apartments, and when there were a number of deputies on duty, as there were at the time meotioued, they also made their headquarters Uhere, thus materially increasing the expenses for gas. As this bad all wiong been customary the coliector had refrained from calling atten- tion to the matter, but now that the question had been raised in'connection with the use of gas, he desired Instructions from the depart- iment. | Acting Secretary Fairehlid to-day ad- dressed nim a letter directing that hereafter the public butiding should not be occupied for sleeping purposes.

Am Expert From she Hab Before the Senate Committee. ‘Professor Babcock, of the Boston board of health and a chemist, was the first gentieman to address the members of the Senate comm: teeon agriculture and forestry and the large ‘wudience assembled in the cummiitee room oo the subject of olecimargarine this morning. It was his duty, he said, to see that the law ot Massachusetts requiring that oleomargarine should be sold under its proper name was enforced. In the great majority of cases the law was obeyed. In one year he bad made 3,371 inspections, and had found Bimety per cent of the olcomargine wold erly, and had issued warrants jor arrest ib the other cases, There were thousands of persons in the city of Boston whe buy buiterine, Know. Ing perfectly weil what itwas, It was marked butterine, sold for butterine and the price was the price of butterive. The same state ment applied to oleomargarine. Many re in Bosion in fact wok more than ‘the precautions prescribed by law to inform their customers what they Were buying. In many of the factory towns the tives ‘and their families were unadle to buy butter, and bat for this substitute would be entirely without butter orfinything answering its pur . It was, of course, true that many board- ng house and restaurant keepers placed it on their tables as butter, and aso thatin some cases it was sold as butier, but in like manner did people sei? sugar and sand as “all sugar.” He ‘bel.eved olvomargariue was — bealth- ful, and should be sold under its true name A compelling it tw sail under its true name would be wise and could be entorced. He thought it uniair to compel manuiacturers to color oleo red or blue, or leave it uncolored, for the reason that people would be prejudiced against itby pre- Viols habits, A subsiltute for aay tood article must look like the article it took the place of, Oleomargarine sold at 15 cents a pound and was whovesome, while butter sold much bigh And Was sometimes of very poor quality.
