The Agri-Horticultural Society of 
Madra.S was established in 1835 and has had 
a useful career. From the annual report just 
to hand, we quote : — 
Receipts and Expenditure.-- The receipts from 
various sources, w'a : — Sale of setds, plants, sundries, 
admission tickets at the Flower show, subscription 
from Members, and Gover'iment grants' amounted to 
Rll, 872-3-3 and the expenditure by p^y cf establish- 
meni, purchase of seeds, plant-, ert-ci ing' palm house, 
cistei-n'i, oriiitiag advertising, &o RU, 329-5 3, leaving 
a balance of R542-14-0. 
Bkeai) fruit (aeeitless) — The one sent to us from 
the I'eradeniya gardens, plfiuted out near a waier 
channel, is un ■« about 25 feet high and bearii g fi uits 
for the last 4 years. The other plant from the Lac- 
cadives planted in an open pLi e and getting only a 
aca.nty supply of water is not more than 8 feet high 
and bears a sickly appeiiranc:e--r)ow de-id. — Landol,- 
PHIAS — L Kiikii and L fiorida, two African rubber 
climbers. The former ia a delicate twining plant 
producing fruits in profusion, and the latter is a giant, 
covered tip four trees ahendy but did not fruit as yet. 
Fious VooELLi — This rubber plant has made no pro- 
gress yet. Evidently the climate doef not suit it.
