several short lectures, attracted a large 

 and interested audience. Wilfrid 

 Wheeler, secretary of the state board 

 of agriculture, and several professors 

 from the Massachusetts Agricultural 

 College were the lecturers. There will 

 be no lecture February 20. 



J. Leach & Son, of North Easton, in 

 addition to carnations are now sending 

 in some fine lily of the valley and 

 Purity freesias. 



Southworth & Greene, of West 

 Stoughton, are sending in good single 

 violets and a nice assortment of well 

 grown carnations. 



The • West Street Greenhouses, of 

 Reading, are having an extra fine cut 

 of the newest Spencer sweet peas, 

 which realize high prices. They also 

 are large growers of calendulas and 

 daffodils. Their carnations are now in 

 heavy crop. Their best varieties are 

 Pink Delight, Benora, Mrs. Ward, 

 Beacon and White Wonder. The two 

 last named outbloom all others. 



J. Newman & Sons, of Tremont 

 street, had a good St. Valentine's day 

 business and have had good trade so 

 far this winter. 



The violets of Kidder Bros, always 

 sell quickly. The flowers are of 

 splendid quality and beautifully 

 bunched. Some growers can produce 

 fine flowers, but have not yet learned 

 how to bunch them properly, and care- 

 ful bunching, so as to show the individ- 

 uality of each flower, means a great 

 ^eal. W. N. C.
