THE MAYFLOWER. 



The Christian Science Monitor of 

 Boston prints the following letter: 



With a twinge of jealousy for ray 

 darling flower, trailing arbutus, better 

 known on Cape Cod as the Mayflower, 

 I notice in your article, "A Stir About 

 Plants" (April 8), that "several acres 

 on Cape Cod are being given over to 

 the raising of a Chinese lily." 



A Chinese lily may be very beaur 

 tiful, but can it equal one of Cape 

 Cod's native flowers? — the one above 

 mentioned. 



It is a mournful fact that unless 

 some power restrains the vandal hand 

 of commercialism, trailing arbutus 

 will ere long be as dead as the rocks. 



I first came to Denver 20 years ago; 

 and for several years thereafter an 

 annual reminder of my old New Eng- 

 land home came to me — a box of 

 trailing arbutus. One year I received 

 three. But for a number of years 

 past none has come. My friends 

 write me that the places where it 

 grew have been ransacked and the 

 plants have been pulled up by the 

 roots, so that now it is impossible to 

 get any within reasonable distance.

BOSTON, MASS. 



Two or three years ago, as I 

 boarded a street car, T caught the un- 

 mistakable perfume of the sweetest 

 flower in the world, and on locating 

 its source found a friend of mine 

 wearing a tiny bunch in her button- 

 hole. "Where did you get it?" I 

 eagerly inquired, and she told me she 

 had bought it on a street in Boston; 



that everywhere it was being offered 

 for sale by those who had gone far, 

 far into the haunts and were getting 

 10 cents for just a few sprigs of the 

 flowers that I could gather by the 

 basketful when I was a child, after a 

 10 minutes' walk from my home.
