used by the plaintiflf in its reply would 

 mean that the defendant was to send 

 the three kinds of rhododendrons which 

 it could supply, at the offered price. 

 While the plaintiff was not bound to 

 use the suggested code, if it did not 

 do so, in order to bind the defendant 

 by a contract, it must reply in language 

 which ought to be understood by the 

 defendant to mean that the plaintiff 

 thereby ordered of the defendant cer- 

 tain goods at certain prices. This the 

 message, 'Ship as ordered,' did not do. 

 There had been no order. The message 

 might naturally refer to an order on 

 its way by mail, or to be so sent. It 

 could not be understood to require the 

 defendant to send plants, as to which 

 the only communications between the 

 parties had been a statement that the 

 plaintiff would want them and a request 

 for information as to prices, with a 

 promise to cable as to filling an order, 

 replied to by a list of prices for such 

 of the plants as could be furnished, 

 accompanied by a suggestion of the 

 form which the cable as to filling 

 the order should take if the plaintiff 

 desired the defendant to send those of 

 the rhododendrons which the plaintiff 

 had said it should want, and which the 

 defendant could furnish. The message 

 was not equivalent to an order to the 

 defendant to send such of the rhodo- 

 dendrons mentioned in the letter of 

 February 10 as the defendant had 

 stated prices for. If so intended by 

 the plaintiff, it was not in terms which 

 the defendant ought so to have inter- 

 preted or understood, and, as it did not 

 so understand them, there was no con- 

 tract." S.

Joint Flower Show. 



The first joint flower show of the 

 Newport Garden Club and the Newport 

 Horticultural Society was held last 

 week on the grounds of Belcourt, the 

 summer home of Mrs. Oliver H. P. Bel- 

 mont, and was one of the most success- 

 ; ful exhibitions ever seen at Newport. 

 There was an unusual showing of gla- 

 dioli, B. Hammond Tracy, of Wenham,
