Goddard. Framingham, Mass, is well known in the horticultural trade, particularly to carnation specialists, for whom there is always much of interest. The estab- lishment of Samuel J. Goddard has a national reputation. From here many notable exhibits have been made, and all carnationists who have attended re- cent conventions have admired the won- derful gold medal vases of Laddie grown by Mr. Goddard. Many of Dorner's newest seedlings are growing here, and haye a two or three years' tryout before dissemina- tion, if they ever reach that point. No. 73 is a fine and brilliant scarlet.

Erlangea tomentosa is grown in benches; its pretty mauve-colored flow- ers sell well later in the season. Didis- cus ea?rulea is also grown. Bouvardias promise a fine holiday crop. Cyclamens, of which there was a good-sized batch, were clean and thrifty; so were bego- nias, of which Chatela
