Flowers with Perfumes.— A German Lotanist 
is said to have discovered that out of 4,300 .spe- 
cies of flowers cultivated in Europe only 420 
possess an agreeable perfume. Flowers with 
white or cream-coloured petals are more frequently 
odoriferous than others. Next in order come the 
yellow flowers, then the red, after them the blue 
and finally the violet, of which only thirteen 
varieties out of 308 wive off a pleasing )jerfume. 
In the whole list 3,880 varieties are offensive in 
odour, and 2,300 have no perceptible smell, either 
good or bad. — Journal of Horticulture, April 11 
Eucalyptus in London. —Mr Colen.so Bloojg, of 
BlofiK Brotiiers, Melbourne, who has returned from 
his European trip, reports that in spite of the com- 
petition of Algerian and other eucalyptus oils 
the demand for Australian oil is, increasing, and 
the price is rising, but it was evident to him 
that only oil of a high eucalyptol content could 
be sold. Th;^ result probably will be that in- 
ferior oils will be kept in Australia, and the 
best oils will be sent away, so that as in many 
other places the country of produce will be worse 
served than the di.stant market.— CAey?iwi! and 
Druggist, April 13.
