THE 100 FAVORITE IRISES OF 1952. 
The thirteenth annual symposium of the American Iris 
Society has been prepared on an entirely new basis. In 
_ previous years only the judges of the Society voted. This 
_ year all of the members of the Society were invited to take 
part and over eleven hundred members sent in their lists 
of 100 favorites. It is interesting to note that this sym- 
| posium made by the members, and that of last year made 
| by 262 judges, are very nearly alike. While the rank varies 
in some instances, the lists as a whole contain the same 
' varieties. Ninety-three varieties on the 1951 list are in- 
_ cluded in the 1952 list.
