AMERICAN CARNATION SOCIETY. Sixteenih Annual Meeting, Toronto, Ont., January 23-24, J907. Continued from last issue. The Judges. The judges at the Toronto convention last week in tlie seedling, medal and spe- cial premium classes were W. N. Rudd, Eugene Dailledouze and J. A. Valentine. The judges in the general classes were Joseph McKenna, C. G. Guenther and Fred Burki. Notes on Varieties. The general run of exhibits was in poorer condition than at any exhibition of the society I have attended since In- dianapolis.

Looks like a ''bread and butter ; White Lawson.—Shown in very good shape. Lady Bountiful.—Seems "on the tobog- gan ; Harlowardcn.—A few vases still shown. Red Lawson.—All right except as to color. Winsor.—Looks like a commercial va- riety—a beautif
