NEWPORT. R. I. 



Current G>innieiit 



Next week the Association of Ceme- 

 tery Superintendents will meet in Provi- 

 dence. It is doubtless due to the fact 

 that Newport is famous for its horti- 

 cultural charms that the • association will 

 devote one day to sight-seeing here. The 

 superintendent of the Island cemetery, 

 Col. A. K. McMahon, is an enthusiastic 

 member and an ardent horticulturist. An 

 old-fashioned clam-bake i^ on the pro- 

 gram. 



John Barron has been appointed gar- 

 dener for Col. De Lancey Kane, and Wil- 

 liam Anderson has succeeded his brother, 

 the late Alex. Anderson, as gardener for 

 Mrs. Thomas J. Emery in Middletown. 



This has been one of the driest sea- 

 sons on record. Many lawns are already 

 burned up, despite the liberal use of 

 water. An idea of the efforts made to 

 keep the grass green during the month 

 will be obtained with the knowledge that 

 Wm. B. Scott & Co. sold over 4,000 feet 

 of hose in three weeks. In Newport the 

 grass, from early in summer until late 

 in the fall, is kept cut close down to the 

 bare turf by mowers with grass-catching 

 attachments; or, in the absence of these 

 latter, there are sweepers to clean up 

 every bit of grass mowed. This process 

 leaves the roots of the grass exposed to 

 the drying influences of the sun and air. 

 When a very dry spell comes and con- 

 tinues, the lawns are inevitably scorched 

 in consequence of this close shaving and 

 the sweeping away of what would act 

 as a mulch if allowed to remain and 

 settle at the roots. B. B.
