Do not forget the club meeting De- cember 17, for it wiU be election night, and the practical talks from H. H. Bartsch, on *' Growing Plants for Christ- mas," and Henry Penn, on "Handling Plants at the Store for Christmas," should bring out a large attendance. John E. Comley, of Bedford, brother of N. F. and H. R. Comley, is a delegate to the Massachusetts State Grangers' Convention in Springfield this week. Mr. Comley is an enthusiastic granger. Excellent giganteum lilies are coming from John Macrae, of Providence, and Mrs. John J. Fee, of Jamaica Plain. Mrs. Fee is continuing her husband's business, bulbs being her specialty. Henry A. Stevens, of Dedham, has a good-sized batch of a charming deep cerise seedling carnation of good size, and with an excellent stem and calyx. Best of all, it is a free bloomer. All ex- perts who have seen it are favorably impressed with its possibilities. George W. Foster, of Wamesit, is sending in nice Spencer sweet peas. His specialty continues to be carnations and his leaders this season are Matchless, Champion, Benora, Ward and Pink De- light. A few years ago it was late winter before wallflowers were in the market, but already there are good-sized ship- ments coming in from C. B. Johnson, of Woburn, Mass. This gentleman also has excellent Seidewitz and White Bonnaf- fon mums. Frank Edgar, of Waverley, has won- derful cyclamens this season, most of which are already sold for the holidays. He also has fine stocks of begonias and poinsettias. He is cutting the last of his mums. W. N. C. John J. Cassidy wi
