CARNATION MORSELS. 



tch Canlinal. It's making friends 



S. .J. Renter has been displaying a 

 white seedling at Welch Bros, in Bos- 

 ton which promises well. 



The Queen has gradually attained a 

 proud position ariiong the whites and 

 finds congenial quarters in widely 

 separated and diverse localities. 



A carnation authority of high repute 

 su,gsests that the brittleness of stem 

 complained of in some varieties arises 

 fiom an overuse of bone fertilizer. 



Carnation Flamingo has improved 

 greatly, and with several growers mak- 

 ing a record that will place this variety 

 in the desirable lisl for next year's 

 growing. 



A new variety that is liable to make 

 its mark is J. A. Valentine. The flower 

 is symmetrical and more lively in tint 

 than Enchantress, Candace is an ele- 

 gant pink and deserves to be better 

 known.
