Adolph Poehlmann has not of late failed to lead every visitor down to the middle of Plant B for a look at a bench of 800 Russell. Earlier in the season 30,000 grafts were taken from these plants, but lately they have come into crop. When one stands on the bench, so as to be able to see over the top of the plants, the sight is one not soon forgotten. It is planned to plant perhaps 20,000 Russell for next season. Just by way of a trial, Harry Balsley was given an order, in 1911, for a few thousand 2i^-inch pots that are three inches deep inside. For carrying car- nations from the cutting stage to the field the deep pot proved so good that last season 165,000 were used and for this season 175,000 more were bought. Guy French says the benefit of the extra inch or so of soil below the top of the root ball is apparent even when the plants come to be lifted from the field. The plant section now occupies ap- proximately 125,000 square feet of space and steadily expands. For in- stance, C. G.
