Various Notes. 



A large gathering is expected at the 

 oext meeting of the Gardeners' and 

 Florists' Club, October 20, to hear L. 

 W. C. Tuthill lecture on "Advertising, 

 the Spark Plug of Business. ' ' A special 

 invitation has been extended to all the 

 leading retailers to attend. Those who 

 are desirous of joining the landscape 

 gardening classes should send their 

 names to the secretary at once. 



Galvin's has had a beautifully ar- 

 ranged window of Cattleya labiata. The 

 plants were loosely and artistically dis- 

 played. Florida moss draped from the 

 pots obscured them. Cork bark was 

 used in the bottom of the window; A 

 few plants of Oncidium varicosum 

 Bogersii helped to show up the beauti- 

 ful cattleya display more effectively. 

 Wedding orders have been numerous 

 here of late, I noted , one particularly 

 charming bridal bouquet October 10 for 

 Miss Helen Foss, composed of Odonto- 

 glossum crispum, Dendrobium f ormosum 

 giganteum and Bouvardia Humboldtii. 



William R, Nicholson, of Framingham, 

 is cutting some grand Unaka, October 

 Frost and Estelle mums. He will cut 

 Bamapo this week and has a superb lot 

 of Chrysoloras. One house is devoted 

 entirely to the best singles and pom- 

 pons. Among carnations. Champion is 

 well liked and Mr. Nicholson wishes he 

 had planted more of it. Matchless as 

 yet is short-stemmed, as is Benora, but 

 White Wonder and Pink Delight are 

 excellent. About 10,000 carnations a 

 week are being cut. 



Edward Bingham, of Dedham, is cut- 

 ting a fine crop of Smith's Advance, 

 October Frost and Golden Glow mums 

 and is starting to pick single violets. 

 He is not growing many double violets 

 this season. 



Charles Bapp, of Melrose Highlands, 

 is sending in a nice lot of Oncidium 

 Bogersii and Cattleya labiata to the 

 Boston Cooperative Market. Mr. Bapp 

 was for many years on the well known 

 estate of Oakley Thome, Millbrook, 

 N. Y. 



The Mishawum Flower Co., of Wo- 

 burn, is strong at present on Golden 

 Glow, Smith's Advance and Unaka 

 mums. 



Mignonette is quite scarce in the 

 local markets, but that coming from 

 A. G. Lake, of Wellesley Hills, is of 

 fine quality. 



Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Ward, of Mont- 

 vale, have been enjoying a ten days' 

 vacation in Delaware, Pennsylvania* and 

 Washington, including the battlefield of 

 Gettysburg.
