who inarrit'd a couple of nioiitlis a{i;o, is 

 spending liis honeymoon in his native 

 land, Switzerland, and is having; a most 

 enjoyable trip. 



Final arrangements for the annual 

 picnic of the Gardeners' and Ilorists' 

 Club, at Cunningham park, East Mil- 

 ton, were completed at a meeting of the 

 executive committee July 9. It is hoped 

 to complete baseball games for men, 

 ladies and boys before the lunch hour, 

 and it is hoped as many members as 

 possible will be on hand at 10 a. m. to 

 permit the games to be started early. 

 All that is wanted to make the ])icnic 

 a grand success is good weatlicr, an ar- 

 ticle somewliat scarce lu'reaI)outs of 

 late. However, there is a large gymna- 

 sium iiiid ample shelter in case of 

 showers. 



Joseph Dowd, for some years with T. 

 F. Galvin, Inc., has joined the forces 

 of the new wholesale house, Welch's, 

 Inc. Mr. Dowd is well known in whole- 

 sale quarters, and his geniality and ex- 

 perience should prove valuable assets in 

 liis new location. 



Douglas P^ccleston, who has just re- 

 tired as superintendent for A. C. Bur- 

 rage, of Beverly Farms, will start in 

 business at Keene, X. H., as a specialist 

 in Xew England liardy i)lants, and his 

 first contract will be on the Xew Hamp- 

 shire estate of Mr. Burrage, 700 acres 

 in area, which will be planted exclu- 

 sively with hardy herbaceous plants, 

 bulbs, shrubs, trees and vines found 

 here. This will be a big contract and 

 will give Mr. Eccleston a good send-off. 



The Medfield Farms & Greenhouse Co. 



has a splendid lot of asters just coming 

 into flower. Business in May and June 

 easily broke all previous years' records, 

 A roadside stand moves a lot of plants, 

 flowers and vegetables. 



The Boston Sunday Herald in its roto- 

 gravure section July 9 had a full page of 

 charming rose pictures taken in Roger 

 Williams park. Providence, all of the 

 plantings being done by the late super- 

 intendent, Frederick C. Green. These 

 jiictures were used to emphasize the 

 need of such rose gardens in Bos- 

 ton and, thanks to the Arnold Ar- 

 boretum and some special funds left by 

 public-spirited <'itizens, it looks as 

 if we might have such in the near 

 future. W. X. C.
