 varieties in the open.

 Carnations for 1913-14 is a list of varieties 

 wh it-li have proved successful in the open ground. 

 and are most, useful for planting in beds or in the 

 flower border. Dublin Pink, a variety of their 

 raising, has done exceptionally well in many 

 gardens, giving a quantity of beautiful flowers 

 lor cutting. In the list will be found many 

 novelties among the good old sorts. Pinks, Tree,

November 1st- 



-Co. Clare Fruit 

 Produce Show. 



and Farm 



Ghent Exhibition. 



The beautiful lawns have been one of the most 

 attractive and prominent features of this great 

 Exhibition. English and American visitors will 

 be interested to learn that this gratifying result 

 has been in a large degree achieved by sowing 

 Messrs. Sutton's famous Grass Seeds, for which 

 the celebrated Reading firm has been awarded a 

 " Grand Prix " by the Jury. 



It will be remembered that .Messrs. Sutton 

 were the recipients of a " Grand Prix " at the 

 great Franco-British Exhibition in 1908 and a 

 (.,,ld Medal at the Brussels Exhibition in 1910

 their seeds. 



Notes. 



llth, 12th — Ulster Horticultural Society 

 • Chrysanthemum Show. 



Record of Proceedings ok the Royal Horti- 

 cultural Society of Ireland (No. 2). — Rev. 

 J. H. Pemberton, in writing of the Roses at the 



autumn show makes a plea for absent friends, 

 and urges the P. II. S. to make a class for decora- 

 tive Roses. " Exhibition Roses are not now the 

 favourites of fashion, but those which make our 

 gardens gay continuously to late October." 

 Roses like General M' Arthur, Duchess of Welling- 

 ton. Lady Pirrie, and .Mine. Abel Chatenay may be 

 grown by almost everyone, so we hope next year 

 to sec a class for these shown in vases or 

 baskets. Rev. MacDuff Simpson writes about 

 the Sweet Peas, and H. E. Richardson on 

 hardy plants, while the Secretary concludes with 



some notes.
