ing so as to have each flower show its 

 individuality counts for a good deal. 

 Anyone looking at bunches of 100 and 

 200 as done up by Kidder Bros., of 

 Lincoln, Mass., or William Spillsbury 

 and (». A. Sanborn, of Woburn, Mass., 

 and tiicn cxaniiuiiig other flower 

 bunches done uji hurriedly and care- 

 lesKly must admit that there is nearly as 

 much art in })unching the blooms well 

 as in growing them successfully. 



Affairs at the Waban Rose Conser\a- 

 torics have not gone smoothly since that 

 master rose craftsman, Alexander Mont- 

 gofnery, retired to Hadley after long 

 years of active management. For many 

 vcjirs this noted establishment w.n liic 

 Mecca for rose growers from all o\er The 

 I'nited States and Canada. Hero orig- 

 inated such noted roses as White Ki!- 

 larney, Mrs. Russell and Hadley, with 

 lit hers of less fame, like Wabash, Mrs. 

 Bayard Thayer and Mrs. Moorfield 

 Storey. Here at one time were also 

 grown wonderful Cornelia Cook, Perle 

 and other old varieties, while the estab- 

 lishment was a top-notch one in the pro- 

 duction of massive single-stem mums 

 when they were in the heyday of their 

 popularity. A number of the houses at 

 Xatick arc quite old and, without a 

 greater number of more modern ones, it 

 is doubtful if this rose growing concern 

 of 300,000 feet of glass can be made a 

 profitable one. The receiver, Francis G. 

 (toodale, attorney of Boston, Mass., was 

 appointed on the petition of a number 

 of persons and concerns, including the 

 Anderson Coal Co., of Cumberland, Md., 

 which latter firm has a claim of $20,000 

 on a mortgage. W. N. C. 



At a meeting held Wednesday, Febru- 

 ary 2.S, the committee on prizes and ex- 

 hibitions of the Massachusetts Horticul- 

 tural Society decided that judging of 

 roses in its coming show will be accord- 

 ing to the rules and standards of the 

 .\mcrican Rose Society. This society is 

 cooperating heartily and the Boston 

 show, April 6 to 10, is expected to be the 

 greatest of this year's rose shows, while 

 other classes of flowers will be notable. 

 The American Rose Society is issuing 

 its own prize lists, which are in addition 

 to the offerings of the Massachusetts 

 Horticultural Society.
