NURSERYMEN CONFER.
DOMINION CONFERENCE. By Telegraph. —Prey's Association Christchurch, Jan. 25. The fifteenth annual conference of the Nursterymen’s Association opened to-day with a civic reception. The president, Mr. A. W. Buxton, said modern methods of production demanded many changes in the system of advertising and producing, and more co-operation, in view of the high cost of imported choice plants. These must now be grown in the Dominion. He hoped a sound basis for future afforestation would be arranged by the executive, and it would meet representatives of the Forestry Department when this question of forest nursery practice would be considered. He hoped that a strongly financed pomological board would be formed. The work of the association steadily progressed, and he believed the present stringency was a passing phase.
