sian water, drilled ninety-four feet in 

 depth, and a greenhouse with potting 

 and boiler shed; here Frank Michell 

 was hard at work potting Ampelopsis 

 Veitchii. 



The objects of this Andalusia trial 

 ground are twofold: First, to produce 



stock required in the store, chiefly vege- 

 table plants, flowering plants and roots 

 difficult to procure; second, to test the 

 character and quality of the seeds. It 

 may be further said that reciprocity, 

 the old policy of the house, will be 

 maintained. It is more than likely the 



real mission of the place will eventually 

 become the production of perennials, 

 with the other two as side issues. The 

 belief is firm that there is a great 

 future in hardy perennials and that the 

 house must have them at some day not 

 far distant. 



The grounds were filled with good 

 stock. There were California privet 

 from spring cuttings, asparagus of the 

 edible kind; tomatoes, Comet and Loril- 

 lard; cabbage, carrots and a host of 

 others. Then there were cannas, espe- 

 cially desired for their showy decora- 

 tiveness and because cannas confidently 

 catalogued are, alas, often difficult to 

 obtain. There were hardy chrysan- 

 themums, too, in some fifty varieties, 

 and from them cuttings have been root- 

 ed. This is enough to give a faint idea 

 of the rows and rows, distanced for 

 horse cultivation, now growing here. 



The greenhouse is interesting, with 

 its sowings of myosotis, bellis and pan- 

 sies. Just think of the joy of having a 

 particularly fine batch of Michell's 

 Giant Exhibition po-nted out by Henry 

 F. Michell himself! All were coming 

 up well. 



Another greenhouse and a few more 

 rows of frames are planned for this fall. 

 The place makes an excellent showing 

 for its first year, and rvill undoubtedly 

 become one of the show places. 



Various Notes. 



William Berger is erecting five green- 

 houses in the rear of his new German- 

 town avenue store, which is progressing 

 rapidly. Mr. Berger has moved several 

 of the houses from his Queen street
