Ions a day is furnished by a well dug 

 nearby to a moderate depth. 



The speed w^ith which this vrell ar- 

 ranged plan has been carri^ into ex- 

 ecution is wonderful, x The farm was 

 purchased in the middle of July last; 

 the plans for the houses and heating 

 plant were accepted in the middle of 

 September, and now, in the middle of 

 December, one-half the plant is in oper- 

 ation and the other half soon will be. 



The stock for these two acres of 

 greenhouses is ready at Biverton. In 

 fact, so carefully have the crops been 

 timed that Mr. Eisele assures me em- 

 phatically that four weeks after the 



new place has been stocked from River- 

 ton the stock will not be missed. A 

 quantity of nephrolepis in the leading 

 varieties will be grown in the new 

 range; also some palms and the latest 

 Dreer specialty, variegated pineapples. 

 Exactly what plants will go over will 

 be determined on the spur of the mo- 

 ment, as seems most expedient when 

 each house is ready. 



The construction of this handsome 

 plant marks an epoch in. greenhouse 

 enterprise. It is the largest arjaa of 

 glass ever put up at one time for^pot 

 plants. It is the result of the life ex- 

 perience of a past master in our pro- 

 fession and it is intended to be the 

 beginning of the greatest establishment 

 of its kind in America. Phil. 



Mishawaka, Ind. — C. L. Powell is said 

 to be notably successful in the grow- 

 ing of chrysanthemums, producing 

 flowers that are remarkable both for 

 size and beauty. A few of them are 

 shipped out of town, but most of them 

 are needed for his local trade. 



AMERICAN CARNATION SOCIETY. 



A. Jablonsky, of Olivette, Mo., has 

 registered Variegated Enchantress, a 

 si)ort from White Enchantress, white 

 with rose-pink stripes; habit same as 

 parent. 



J. R. Walling, of Keyport, N. Y., has 

 registered J. R. Walling, a sport from 

 Enchantress, shell-pink with deeper 

 markings; habit same as Enchantress. 



Both of the foregoing registrations 

 are only provisional, as the plants are 

 sports. The rules require that blooms 

 must be shown .at the next meeting of 

 the A. C. S., to allow the judges to pass 

 upon them as to their distinctiveness. 

 A. F. J. Baur, Sec'y- 



Lancaster, Mass. — Miss Clara Fran- 

 cis has opened a greenhouse here and is 

 also planning to grow plants, shrubs 

 and trees for the adornment of neigh- 

 boring estates. Miss Francis is a 

 native of Lowell and a graduate of 

 Rogers Hall School, in that city. She 

 also attended Simmons College, Boston.
