The William W. Edgar Co. has an ex- 

 tra fine lot of Lorraine begonias, cycla- 



■ ens, primulas, poinsettias and other 

 ! ants coming on for Christmas. Their 

 ' irysanthemums are also looking extra 



■ fill. 



Littlefield & Wyman have their car- 

 "Ttions all housed and looking fine. 

 ^ >me promising seedlings are included. 



Alterations are being made in the 

 ' ar of C Park street, which will give 

 ^i'ace for a few additional stalls. The 

 ;iiction sale of these will come in a 

 1 "w weeks and the demand seems likely 

 ^0 be strong. 



There is likely to be a shortage of 

 '■arnation plants in this section. Plants 

 •''■e unusually small, owing to the dry 



■ nmmer, and -there is a heavier call 

 'han usual for field grown plants. 



Robert Cameron, W. N. Craig and Ed- 

 win Jenkins, of Lenox, will officiate as 

 judges at the coming show in Bar Har- 

 bor, Me., which opens August 13. 



A new floor being laid in the main 

 exhibition hall of Horticultural hall will 

 be completed this week. 



A bequest of the late John S. Farlow 

 has been transferred from the Newton 

 Horticultural Society to the Massachu- 

 setts Horticultural Society, amounting 

 to $2,882, the income to be devoted to 

 prizes for pears and foreign grapes. The 

 society has received $13,382 during the 

 last three years in special bequests. 



The New England Dahlia Society will 

 probably hold its annual exhibition in 

 connection with the September show of 

 the Massachusetts Horticullural Society 

 in Horticultural hall. 



Welch Bros, are doing an extra good 

 summer shipping trade and are busy 

 getting their emporium at 226 Devon- 

 shire street in readiness for the biggest 

 trade on record, which is coming this 

 fall. w. N. Craig. 



Akron, O.— Work is now well ad- 

 vanced in the construction of the first 

 eleven greenhouses, each 30x160, on the 

 model farm of O. C. Barber, the "match 

 king," at Barberton. As already re- 

 ported in The Eeview, it is Mr. Bar- 

 ber's intention, eventually, to place 

 sixty acres under glass. He obtained 

 his ideas, it is said, from several visits 

 to the Guernsey islands, where there 

 are thousands of acres under glass. He 

 will make experiments in the cultiva- 

 tion of fruits and vegetables, especially 

 those of tropical and oriental character.
