JUDGE CAREY E. QUINN’S DAFFODIL | 
REVIEW FOR THE. 1953 SEASON 
Due to a temporary illness at the time when Daffodils 
“were in bloom, my friend George Heath has been unable 
‘to compile his notes for the issuance of his usual “Daffodils 
‘on Parade”. The: writer herein is glad to help out with a 
‘review based upon his observations for the season, but with 
“an initial warning that none but George Heath can really 
»do the job so many of us look forward to each year.
