The attendance was large on each day

 the second day and a large crowd on 

 yunday, September 12, the closing day. 



VariDut Notes. 



Remember the meeting of the Garden- 

 ers' and Florists' Club, September 21. 

 There will be much business of general 

 interest, in addition to the talk by J. W. 

 Duncan on ' ' Some Facts About the 

 West. ' ' 



At a meeting of the board of trustees 

 of the Massachusetts Horticultural So- 

 ciety, September 8, an invitation was ex- 

 tended to the American Peony Society 

 and the Chrj'santhemum Society of Amer- 

 ica to hold their 1910 exhibitions in 

 Boston. 



With the additional space which will 

 be afforded by the excavations under the 

 street on Park street, it is now unlikely 

 that the Boston Cooperative Flower Grow- 

 ers' Association will move from its pres- 

 ent location at 6 Park street. 



At Horticultural hall, September 11, 

 R. & J. Farquhar & Co. entirely filled the 

 loggia with a beautifully arranged dis- 

 play of gladioli, dahlias, lilies and other 

 seasonable flowers. This part of the 

 building was never before so tastefully 

 decorated. E. J. Mitton, J. Lawson gar- 

 dener, showed a new seedling orchid, Cat- 

 tleya bicolor x Laelio-Cattleya luminosa, 

 The Mikado. Thomas L. Watt showed 

 Tournefortia heliotropioides with helio- 

 trope-like flowers, the leaves scented like 

 those of lantanas. 



At William W. Edgar Co., Waverley, 

 Herman H. Bartsch, the manager, has a 

 fine stock of flowering stock coming along 

 for Christmas, such as Lorraine begonias, 

 poinsettias, etc. Lilies and azaleas are 

 also specialties with this firm; a good 

 many of the latter will be forced for 

 Christmas. W. N. Cbaig. 



HINGHAM. MASS. 



At Peter B. Bradley's fine estate, 

 where Sabin Bolton has charge, there is 

 a splendid block of greenhouses and a 

 lofty-domed palm house contains some 

 fine specimens. In the rose house Rich- 

 mond, Chatenay and Golden Gate looked 

 particularly well. In the carnation house 

 Enchantress, Beacon, Bay State, Winsor 

 and other good kinds are grown. There 

 are divisions devoted to chrysanthemums, 

 grapes, tomatoes, melons, orchids and 

 other plants and a splendid mushroom 

 house. The vegetable and fruit garden

Henry Terry, at Miss Abby Bradley's, 

 has his roses in fine shape; two divisions 

 are devoted to them. The carnations were 

 extra strong and vigorous. One house 

 contained a fine lot of pot chrysanthe- 

 mums; another is devoted to mums grown 

 for sprays, which are preferred to single 

 blooms. Everything here, both outside 

 and under glass, showed that a skillful 

 man had charge. W. N. C.

 Qub Meeting. 



The meeting of the Florists' Club Sep- 

 tember 13 was well attended. The exhib- 

 its consisted of Golden Glow and a white 

 seedling chrysanthemum from C. H. Totty, 

 Kaiserin and Maman Cochet roses, out- 

 door grown, from A. L. Miller, and a 

 vase of sweet peas and scarlet carnations 

 from A. C. Zvolanek, for which the 

 awards committee gave each exhibitor a 

 vote of thanks. 



The committee on the plant market 

 project reported progress. John B. Nu- 

 gent, Jr., sent his resignation as chairman 

 of the house committee, because of seri- 

 ous illness in his family, which was ac- 

 cepted with regret. J. S. Fenrich was 

 made chairman of the committee and A. 

 M. Henshaw was appointed to fill the 

 vacancy. Douglas P. Roy, Charles Peters 

 and William Peters were elected members 

 of the club. John Birnie nominated 

 David McKenzie, Joseph Fenrich nomi- 

 nated J. B. McArdle and J. A. Shaw nom- 

 inated M. A. Ordonez for membership. 



W. A. Marshall moved amendments to 

 the club's by-laws, making the section 

 providing for nominations of oflScers read 

 as follows:
