nations have sold as high as $10, but 

 S6 to $8 is a general average today, 

 with a tendency toward lower prices. 

 The last of the single violets sell at $2. 

 Sweet peas are abundant and popular, 

 with select flowers making $3 per hun- 

 dred. 



There is not a large supply of Dutch 

 bulbous flowers and narcissi make $6 to 

 $8 per hundred. Tulips are compara- 

 tively scarce. Small lots of hyacinths, 

 ranunculuses and anemones arrive. Some 

 splendid freesias still are coming in, 

 also an abundance of yellow mar- 

 guerites. Snapdragons continue decided- 

 ly in oversupply and superb spikes 

 are offered at half their real value. 

 Callas are somewhat overdone; so are 

 cut lilies. In the way of miscellaneous 

 flowers, some Bouvardia Humboldtii and 

 orange blossoms are noted. Plant trade 

 following Easter has been rather quiet. 



At Horticultural Hall. 



A. C. Burrage made another of his 

 noteworthy orchid displays at Horticul- 

 tural hall April 10 and 11, when his 

 superintendent, Douglas Eccleston, set 

 up a handsome group of 100 choice speci- 

 mens, including some fine oncidiums, 

 odontiodas, odontoglossums, rcnantheras, 

 brassocattleyas, cypripediums and other 

 genera. A silver medal was awarded 

 to Odontioda Mrs. H. F. Chalifoux, and 

 a similar award to Sophrolseliocattleya 

 Anzae. A certificate of merit was given 

 to Odontioda Zephyr. 



J. T. Butterworth had a nice collec- 

 tion of well flowered plants and received 

 a silver medal for Odontoglossum 

 Wilckeanum x gloriosum and honorable 

 mention for O. cirrhosum x triumphans.

There was a constant stream of visitors, 

 both April 10 and 11, to view these 

 orchid displays. 



Professor Osterhout delivered an in- 

 teresting lecture on "Plant Breeding" 

 at Horticultural hall April 10. In the 

 course of his remarks he scouted the 

 idea of new varieties being secured by 

 .selection; he believes that it will be 

 rather by mutation, an opinion more 

 generally held in scientific circles. 



The next exhibition at Horticultural 

 hall comes May 15 and 16, when, in ad- 

 dition to A. C. Burrage 's monthly orchid 

 display, classes are provided for narcissi,
