The Boston Horticultural Club will 

 hold its December meeting at the 

 Parker House, with an illustrated lec- 

 ture by the president, E. H. Wilson. 



At the next meeting of the Gardeners' 

 and Florists' Club, December 16, in ad- 

 dition to the lecture, the annual election 

 of oflficers will take place. There will 

 be exhibits of Christmas plants and 

 other features. The club is planning 

 to hold a midwinter flower show in 

 February, and its annual banquet dur- 

 ing the same month. 



A heavy motor truck plowed into one 

 of the greenhouses of W. W. Tailby, of 

 Wellesley, November 26, having failed 

 to make a proper turn. Being driven at 

 a high speed, it continued on its way 

 through a good portion of the house. 

 Mr. Tailby estimates his damage at 

 $3,000. 



Paul F. Brigham, of Westboro, had 

 the finest Seidewitz mums I saw for the 

 Thanksgiving trade. He is also cutting 

 an excellent sweet pea crop. 



A. M. Beckwith, of South Sudbury, 

 is our newest carnation specialist, this 

 being his first season, and he certainly 

 is making good. He has 25,000 plants, 

 chiefly Ward, Matchless, Beacon, Pink 

 Delight and Benora. 



Donald Carmichael, of Wellesley, in 

 addition to his staple crop, carnations, 

 has some handsome mignonette this 

 season. 



Alexander J. Montgomery, of Natick, 

 keeps up the record of his late father, 

 Robert Montgomery, as a successful rose 

 specialist. He has unusually fine Rus- 

 sell, Columbia, Double White Killarney, 

 Hadley and Ophelia and thinks Premier 

 will also make good. 



November proved to be a mild month. 

 The closing day with a maximum of 68 

 degrees was the warmest and the mini- 

 mum for the month was 20 degrees. 

 Rain fell on eleven days to an amount 

 far in excess of normal. There were 

 thirteen clear, seven partly cloudy and 

 ten sunless days. 



Harold A. Ryan, of the Mount Au- 

 burn Greenhouses, Cambridge, is a suc- 

 cessful grower of Strelitzia Reginaj, the 

 bird of paradise flower, as it is com- 

 monly called, and has a fine crop of 

 flowers at present. He has fifty tubs of
