VO TES AND NE I VS. 



^ Mr. George Massee, F.L.S., has been studying the disease of orchids known as 

 Spot,' and has published a paper on it, entitled 'The "Spot* Disease of 

 Orchids/' with a plate, in the Sept., 1895, number of the * Annals of Botany/ The 

 conclusion arrived at is that the disease is not of parasitic origin, and is due to 

 exceptional meteoric con< ons.
