Was certificated last year, October 27, but most of our plants will not flower so early. Several plants have gone blind and others were slow in setting bud. This defect may be due to culture. Would suggest not very rich soil for best results; pure white. Mrs. John Fries.—Said to flower Oc- tober 15, but no color in sight, October 7. Good clean growth, wood red; 6 feet; yellow ; Bonnaffon type. Chas. Razer.—Clean growth; 5 feet

Good clean growth, wood red; 6 feet; yellow ; Bonnaffon type. Chas. Razer.—Clean growth; 5 feet; -very promising incurved white. Dakoma.—Early buds bursting, but do not expect them to give blooms of the chestnut-brown that the later buds will. Clean growth, 4-6 feet, according to date bud was taken. Ceramec.—Cream colored sport from The Queen; same clean growth as par- ent. Domoto Bros, sent out in 1896, Gov. Budd, described as a lemon yellow- sport from The Queen. Who can vouch for their distinctiveness? Comoleta.—Bright yellow, ready to cut October 15. Dwarf habit and ex- cellent in other respects. FOREIGN VARIETIES. Mile. Jeanne Rosette.—Too late to comment on at this writing. Very free and clean in growth, no indication of disease. From present indications, will not be ready to cut before Thanksgiv- ing; pink. Pres. Loubet.—Very robust with heavy canes and foliage. Buds taken August 15 will be ready to cut October 10. Color creamy white; later buds show a decided shade of pink.

Loiseau-Rosseau.—Produces very heavy canes, will need no artificial sup- port; about the height of Timothy Ea- ton. Very short neck from early buds. Midseason; Jap. Inc., pink. Dubuisson-Foubert.—Three and one- fourth to 4 feet; foliage and canes smaller than the average; buds promis- ing; yellow, edged with fine
