LENOX, MASS. 



The Lenox Horticultural Society held 

 an unusually interesting and instructive 

 meeting on Saturday, March 4. It was 

 presided over by President Foulsham. 

 The attendance was large and the mem- 

 bers were amply rewarded by hearing 

 a practical paper on "Mushroom Cul- 

 ture," by W. Jack. The essayist ex- 

 plained all the details in the process, 

 beginning with the preparing of the 

 raaniire, and said that the failures 

 were due, in a large degree, to the 

 dryness of the manure when the beds 

 are made. A good discussion followed 

 this paper, most of the members taking 

 part, and the essayist was accorded a 

 hearty vote of thanks. 



A. J. Loveless was awarded a cer- 

 tificate of merit for a fine vase of 

 Leptosyne maritima. It is rather a 

 pity that this beautiful annual is not 

 more widely grown. It somewhat re- 

 sembles the marguerites, having large, 

 lemon yellow flowers, borne on long, 

 stiff stems. It is fragrant and is val- 

 uable for cut flowers. It can be suc- 

 cessfully grown in a temperature of 

 50 degrees. 



George Breed was awarded a vote of 

 thanks for a vase of Gold of Ophir 

 roses. 



The schedule for the forthcoming 

 shows was adopted as read. One new 

 clause was added, to the effect that 

 none other but the society's card should 

 be used on exhibits at the shows. The 

 following exhibitions will be held: An- 

 nuals and perennials, July 26; fall ex- 

 hibition, October 25 and 26. 



The annual dinner of the society will 

 be held at the Curtis hotel, April 18. 

 .Tames Clifford, chairman of the annual 

 ball committee, reported that it had 

 been one of the most successful held by 

 the society, financially and otherwise. 

 The committee is to be congratulated 

 upon the success attending its efforts. 

 Rose and carnation night will be Sat- 

 urday, March 18, and competition in 

 the various classes will undoubtedly be 

 seen. 



The society is forging ahead, having 

 elected thirteen active members and 

 three life members since the new year. 

 Quite a large delegation will attend the 

 National Flower Show at Boston.
