WASHINGTON. 



J. E. Freeman's place on Brightwood 

 avenue in Takoma Park is in good con- 

 dition. He has some very good carna- 

 tions. Mrs. T. W. Lawson has been good 

 all winter and shows no sign of running 

 down. Challenger, Enchantress, White 

 Cloud and Joost are as good as ever. 

 Boses are in full crop but will be off 

 crop for Easter if this warm weather 

 continues, but one house of Kaiserin 

 and La France will come in just right. 

 The Georgetown place, in charge of Jos. 

 Freeman, Jr., is in fine shape for Easter. 

 He grows a lot of pot plants. Lilies are 

 very good. G. E. A. 



Bird-in-Hand, Pa. — A recent fire in 

 the boiler house of E. J. Weaver gave 

 the whole place a close call. 



Charlotte, N. C. — T. W. Long re- 

 ports a good business and a fine open- 

 ing for developing both a retail and 

 wholesale trade. 



Houston, Tex. — A. W. Hawkins will 

 build a greenhouse and go into business 

 on Arlington street, between Twentieth 

 and Twenty-second avenues. 



The National Horticultural Society of 

 France and the Eose Society of France 

 have organized an international congress 

 of horticulture to sit at Paris May 22

 and discussions has been prepared and all 

 horticultural bodies are invited to be 

 represented.
