and were very interesting and instruct- 

 ive. 



January 26 John E. Lager, Sum- 

 mit, N. J., -will lecture at Horticultural 

 hall on "Orchid Collecting," and is 

 certain to have a large audience. 



The new Begonia Gloire de Lorraine 

 superba, shown by Farquhar & Co. at the 

 club meeting January 15, is quite dis- 

 tinct from others of the Lorraine class. 

 The flowers are double the usual size 

 and are produced less densely on the 

 plant. James Farquhar thinks it will 

 usurp the place occupied by other forms 

 and expects to have 10,000 plants of it 

 next season. 



M. A. Patten, W. Nicholson, S. J. God- 

 dard and E. A. Peirce are among those 

 bound for the Toronto convention this 

 week. 



Robert Cameron, who sailed for Ja- 

 maica December 26, was fortunately 

 away from the earthquake zone before 

 the calamitous disaster of January 14 

 occurred. 



T. F. Galvin has been making a series 

 of window displays of orchids at his 

 Tremont street store which attract much 

 attention. 



A paper on "Eoad Construction" will 

 be read at the next meeting of the Gar- 

 deners' and Florists' Club by Charles 

 W. Boss, of Newton. The date is Feb- 

 ruary 19 and other attractions will be 

 announced later. 



The present winter has proved an un- 

 usual one for overcast skies. January 

 17 it was below zero many degrees, with 

 blizzardy snow. January 20 the tem- 

 perature rose to 60 degrees in the shade 

 and all snow disappeared. Carnation 

 growers report an unusual amount of 

 black spot as a result of the dark, damp 

 weather. 



Notice of the death of Mrs. R. C. 

 Hooper, who died January 13, and of 

 George F. Fabyan, who died January 18, 

 will be found under "The Death Roll" 

 in another column. 



"William Sim is having good success 

 with James "Wheeler's new violet, Bos- 

 ton, a sport from Princess of Wales, and 

 it promises to become a J)opular com- 

 mercial variety. 



^ Peter Fisher's new scarlet carnation. 

 Beacon, promises to be largely grown in 

 this section another season. All who

WAYSIDE NOTES. 



The United States Cut Flower Co., of 

 Elmira, N. Y., had a heavy crop of 

 Beauties for the holidays. Eichard King, 

 the foreman, says demand was good and 

 everything cleaned up. Eichmond, Bride 

 and Bridesmaid, in the second year, are 

 yielding well and will be run another sea- 

 son. Solid beds with tile drainage are 

 adopted with success. Carnation Lady 

 Bountiful is a standard white, being an 

 early and continuous bloomer. Lawson is 

 fine and the best of its color, but Skidel- 

 sky's Bose-pink Enchantress is freer and
