the Gardeners' and Florists' Club, 

 which was held at Horticultural hall, 

 February 3, were sold a week in ad- 

 vance. As the hall's capacity is only 

 325, the ticket selling ceased when that 

 number was reached. A great many 

 more could have been disposed of. 



At the Houghton Gorney Flower 

 Shop I noticed some fine bunches of 

 forsythia and Jn]i;inese quince displayed 

 in the windows, a suggestive sjjring 

 touch. There are always attractive or- 

 chid displays here and this week I noted 

 some fine spikes of Odontoglossuiii 

 Pescatorei, O. pulchellum majus. the lily 

 of tlie valley orchid, helia.s, cyiiibidiums, 

 cattleyas nud dendrobiums. 



A fine program is arranged for Feb- 

 ruary 8, the occasion being the joint 

 meeting of the Massachusetts Nursery- 

 men's Association and tlie Gardeners' 

 and Florists' Club of Boston, at Horti- 

 cultural hall. At the nurserymen's 

 business session 1). .\. Clarke, of Fiske- 

 ville, R. I., will lecture on "The Propa- 

 gation of Deciduous Trees and Shrubs." 

 Christian Van der Voet, of tlie ArnoM 

 Arboretum, will speak on "The Propa- 

 gation of ]']vergreens. " ,1. Horace Mc- 

 Farland will give a stereopticon lecture 

 on "Good Plants. Old and New." At 

 7 p. m. J. Otto Tliilow, of Philadelphia, 

 will give his delightful stereopticon lec- 

 ture on "A Trip to the South Sea 

 Islands and Australia.'' Mr. Thilow is 

 in Porto Rico at the ]>rcsent time, but 

 will arrive at Newport February 7, and 

 will come directh' to Boston. His lec- 

 ture is under the auspices of the Gar- 

 deners' and Florists' Club. 



The Lord & Burnham Co. is fast com- 

 pleting n fine, commodious storage house 

 for bay trees and other evergreens. It 

 is located on the Crane estate, Castle 

 Hill Farm, Ipswich, Mass. 



The local delegation to the Wasliing- 

 ton carnation convention retunieil in fine 

 spirits. The prize list showed it to be 

 a typical New England show, with all 

 important prizes coming this way. The 

 small attendance at the show was 

 lamented by visitors. To popularize 

 carnations or any other flowers with 

 the general public, an attractive ar- 

 rangement is necessary. The more visi- 

 tors, the better for business. 



February 1.1 the Gardeners' and Flo- 

 rists' Club will hold its annual carna- 

 tion night. There will be special speak- 

 ers and ii large display of new and 

 standard carnations. Anyone desiring 

 to send novelties of carnations or other 

 flowers should address them to W. N. 

 Craig, Horticultural hall, Boston, pre- 

 paying <'harges.
