Thus there is plenty for all to do according to their individual

 Secretary asks for help in the ways above indicated. Since the 

 issue of the last Journal two framed plates of fruits in colour, dated

 plants from Miss E. M. C. Kaye ; a collection of Moths and Beetles from 

 Mr^ W. D. Drury, and a number of Hybrid Cacti from Mr. R. Baillie

 quantity of new information, and is compiled more especially for the 

 single-handed gardener. It will be published in November, price 

 IS. id., post free, from the R.H.S. Office, Vincent Square, London, 

 S.W. s or 2S. id. if leather-bound. 



12. LINDLEY LIBRARY. 



The Society, acting in and through its Council, having now become 

 sole trustee of the Lindley Library, Fellows and friends of the R.H.S. 

 have the encouragement of knowing that their gifts to the Library 

 can never be lost to the Society, but are attached to it in perpetuity. It 

 should now be the aim of all to make the Library far more perfect 

 and complete than it is at present. Gifts of books, old or new, will 

 be gratefully accepted. 



13. THE SOCIETY'S GARDENS AT WISLEY. 



In connexion with the scheme approved at the last Annual Meeting 

 for the further development of the practical and scientific work at 

 the Wisley Gardens, Fellows will be pleased to know that the Council 

 have been fortunate in securing the services of Dr. Frederick Keeble, 

 F.R.S., as Director. He took up his duties at the beginning of July. 

 Other appointments are being carefully considered with a view of 

 securing a thoroughly competent staff to make Wisley the foremost 

 horticultural institution of its kind in the British Empire. All com- 

 munications to the Gardens should in future be addressed to " The 

 Director," R.H.S. Gardens, Wisley, Ripley, Surrey. 



Mr. F. J. Chittenden, F.L.S., who has done such splendid work 

 in the Laboratory and with the Students since 1907, will still continue 

 in this capacity under the re-organization scheme, and Mr. Wright will 

 similarly continue his work in the Garden. 



The Gardens are open daily to Fellows and others showing 

 Fellows' Transferable Tickets, from 9 a.m. till sunset, except on 

 Sundays, Good|Friday, Christmas Day, and Exhibition Days. Each
