thing of no account. The tloral world 

 tlien pitched in and worked, though with 

 less and less alarm about their great 

 rival at North Wales. But they always 

 felt the deepest interest in all that 

 transpired there. 



Those who have attended tlie shows 

 and club meetings, those wlio have vis- 

 ited Nortli Wales within the twelve- 

 month, know that the Florex Gardens 

 are now getting wonderful results from 

 their remarkable equipment. The place 

 has passed tlirough its transient or ex- 

 perimental stage and is now getting re- 

 sults. The Florex Gardens are in finer 

 shape today than they have ever been. 

 Of the five radical departures from the 

 beaten track for which tlie Florex Gar- 

 dens gained note, one only survives— the 

 l)ig house, and that in a modified form. 

 It must not be too big or too flat. The 

 other four have gone. Overhead heat- 

 ing to melt the snow on the glass won't 

 do; the pipes are near the ground now. 

 Every plant a front plant is not an ad- 

 vantage; it makes too many walks. 

 Glass, 16x24, put in the wide way, 

 loosens too easily; glazing the 16-inch 

 way is better. Marine boilers, though 

 powerful, waste too much heat; they 

 have been replaced by return tubular 

 boilers. 



That the Florex Gardens should have 

 tried all these on a vast scale, should 

 have modified or changed them alto- 

 gether to suit their needs is a matter of 

 deep interest to the entire floral world; 

 that they have now a thoroughly modern

In Council. 



The regular meeting of the executive 

 council of the Pennsylvania Horti- 

 cultural Society was held in the 

 society's office, at 606 Finance building, 

 Monday, November 21. Two officials 

 were elected to serve for the coming 

 year: Treasurer, Sydney W. Keller; 

 secretary, David Rust. Mr. Rust will 

 commence his twenty-seventh year as 

 secretary January 1, 1922. During the 

 coming year the society will hold two 

 spring flower shows, a peony and rose 

 show, a sweet pea show and a dahlia 

 show, all in the suburbs, and a fall show 

 in the city. 



Various Notes.

and John N, May, Jr., Summit, N. J.;

Frederick Berger has purchased five 

 greenhouses, 20x100 feet each, from 

 Robert B. Cole. This is the Jacob 

 Becker range at Fifty-second and Lud- 

 low streets. Mr. Berger, who is now 

 taking the houses down, will rebuild 

 them on his farm at Arlington, Pa. It 

 is probable that he will use them for 

 delphinium next spring. 



W. Atlee Burpee and family have 

 gone abroad. 



Edmund Dornheim has been missed by 

 his friends. He is ill at home. 



M. J. Callahan says that the lower 

 prices of flowers at Thanksgiving un- 

 doubtedly brought out more buyers. 

 Pompons were popular. Mr. Callahan
