ishly without remuneration in the hope 

 that sometime they will place the so- 

 ciety on a sound financial basis. Men

 that Lenox shows have no rivals. That 's 

 a big order, but I guess it will have to 

 stand. J. W. P. 



AMERICAN CARNATION SOCIETY.

 of directors, held at Eochester, N. Y., 

 August 19, 1910. The time is set for

 hoped that a good attendance will be 

 present.

 attending the convention will be wel-

 be present promptly.

NAME OF FLOWER. 



Can you name the enclosed flower? It 

 looks something like a Shirley poppy, 

 but the bloom is more cup-shaped. 



H. E. D. G. 



Godetia Lady Albemarle is the name 

 of this flower. There are several other 

 excellent godetias, which are one of our 

 most beautiful hardy annuals, prefer- 

 ring a partially shaded place to give 

 the best results. We cannot grow this 

 charming annual as in Europe, owing to 

 our hot, dry summers. It enjoys a cool, 

 moist climate. C. W.
