The illustrated lecture on "Artificial Irrigation," by George N. Barrie, was most interesting, and was followed by a lively discussion. Six new members were added to the roll. Various Notes. Frank Edgar, of Waverley, had more than 14,000 pots of lilies for Easter, all of which sold. He has a fine stock of bedding plants coming along, also an ex- cellent house of sweet peas. Of cycla- mens and winter-flowering begonias he has a large stock. Anderson Bros., of Woburn, are cut- ting quantities of superb Yarrawa sweet peas, with 18-inch stems. Eose Queen, White Orchid and Mrs. Skach are also good. They also have a fine crop of calendulas, callas and snapdragons. Eobert T. McGorum, of Natick, is well known as a rose specialist.
