The Society, as reported a week or two ago in this journal,, was originally a local organization, but Mr. Cannell, with his characteristic far- sightedness, saw a future before it if it would but adopt the title of the National Chrysanthemum Society. The then president scouted the idea and vigorously opposed it. Eventually, however, It was adopted, with the results already known— namely, that it has grown into a powerful institution with a very wide reputation.’* H. Cannell, Senr., would be glad to propose those sending 6s. as Members of the above Society. H.

COLEUS THYKSOIUEUS (The Uelphlnlum Coleus) — A species received at the Royal Gardens, Kew, from British Central Africa, where it was discovered by Mr. White. The habit of the plant is similar to that of an ordinary Coleus. The leaf petioles are 1 J to 2 inches long, and the bright green leaves, triangular, nearly 2^ inches wide and rather more than this in length, with coarsely serrated or toothed margin. The inflorescence is terminal, thyrsoid, and about 8 inches long. The flowers are very numerous, about ^ in. long, and rieh gentian blue in colour. This brilliant blue January and February flowering plant is very distinct, and one of the most lovely Delphininm- like spikes of flowers ever seen. It is of the easiest culture, and unlike others of its family, has green leaves of strong growth, and no't liable to insects or disease. Was unanimously awarded a First Class Certificate as the best blue winter-flowering plant in cultivation. Plantj, Is. and Is. 6d. 9rf. each ; the set for 14s.

We are pleased to say the hybridisers and the most anxious and hopeful seedling raisers are at work, and to those who present flowers doable the size of our present kinds with a perfume, the whole universe owe at least their thanks. Violets, like all other flowers, have their wants, and if these wants are not supplied at the right time they become weak and unsatisfactory. Old plants must be divided early in April, and replanted in good, deeply-dug, and well-manured soil, sixteen inches from plant to plant for large growers; the double and smaller leaf kinds, twelve inches, with their roots well down so as not to suffer in dry weather, and at all seasons their runners must be kept cut off ; they will then produce flowers such as are seldom seen.

What a lovely refreshing fruit 1 And when we hear it is the firm belief of the highest in the medieal profession that if we were to eat more we should hear less of gout, rheumatism, and other pains ; and seeing how easy Strawberries are to grow, it should be the set determination of all to cultivate their own, and have them with all their beautiful freshness, morning and evening, as long as possible ; and when so, they are one of the greatest charms and benefits that mankind can partake of. NEW INTRODUCTIONS. LAXTON’S “CEOPPEB,” (1907)— Raised by crossing a promising second generation seedling with “ Pillbasket ’’—Kaiser’s description : “ May best be described as a much improved pillbasket. In the cross we have succeeded in maintaining the heavy cropping nnalities ot Pillbasket, but have increased the size, colour, and flavour largely in all three respects. Evervone who has grown Laxton’s Pillbasket will admit that it is the heaviest cropping variety in commerce, but it is somewhat small and rather light in colour. If, then, in the new Cropper we have increased the size, colour, and flavour without diminishing the crop, we think our frien is will admit we have raised a good thing. Laxton’s Cropper is a Main Crop variety of a rich crimson co'our bluntly conical in shape, the flesh is white and solid with a good firm exterior skin, very rich and Inecions in flavour, medium to large in size, with a fine coustitntion, succeeding well on almost any soil, and forces well as a second early.” Open ground plants, 6s. per doz. ; 30s. per 100.

LAXTOH’S “RELIANCE” (1907)— Raised by crossing that fine variety “Vicomtesse H. de Thury” with a selected seedling of the “St. Joseph” nornetual type— Raiser’s description “ A mid-season fruit of very heavy cropping qualities, of large size rich flavour, bright icarlet in colour, conically wedge shape. This variety, combining as it does many of the best qualities of Vicomtesse, by mneh increased size, can be highly recom mended as a Main Crop variety. Where quality is a desideratum combined with size, vigour, and croDOing dualities, we have every confidence in recommending this variety. It is one likely to succeed on almost any soil. The flesh is firm and solid, enabling the fruit to travel well. Open ground plants, 5s. per doz. ; 30s. per 100. In pots, 6s. per doz. ; 40s. per 100. ( 160 ) Cannells’ Floral Guide, 1909.

J A PA N T hese new labels have been introduced to supply a long-felt want for a label similar to Ae now well-known “ Acme ” Labels, made for Roses, Fruits, Orchids, and Chrysanthemums, but of various sizes, uud capable of being made with any name. They are made in commercially pure zinc, with raised bright letters on a black ground, and are practically indestructible. A further improvement has been made by putting the labels on a double stem where possible, which, in addition to giving the necessary strength to the label, prevents it being blown round by the wind, and gives it a neater and less conspicuous appearance, without detracting from its usefulness. Although in every way superior, these labels will be found to compare in price favourably with any on the market. ^ „ 3?BI03ES, No. 201.

Vacohan, Swanloy. “I have been using your Wash on my plantations for the Gooseberry Mildew. Some I have done with the Liver of Sulphur, but I find your Wash is twenty times better than the sulphur. I am very pleased with the results from your solution, and I should recommend it to anybody that bus got the mildew in their plantations, us I am almost certain that after a washing or two it will kill it outright.” Mr. .1. Stei’Iiehson, The Gardens, Sutton Scarsdale, Chesterfield. “ I have great jileasure in writing to you with reference to your ‘ One and only Perfect Wash.’ I have tried it on apple, plum, and pear trees— apple sucker and aphis, plum aphis (very bad), and scale (very bad). After two aiiplications, on careful inspection, not a single pest could bo found alive. My gooseberry trees were covered with caterpillars. After spraying in the evening, on examination next morning the ground was literally covered with dead pests. It is iust as effective for mildew. My roses are a picture of health and vigour after two apiilications. It is in the highest degree effective. It is also harmless to the trees— non - poisonous. There is no risk or discomfort to the user. It is economical in cost and, above all, absolutely reliable in every respect, which makes it the ‘ One and Only Perfect Wash tor all puiposes. John Lawrky, Covent Garden Market, W.C. “ I cannot speak too highly of the beautiful raspberries received from you. I have had several tons from you, and have not once seen any trace of that horrible caterpillar, so common in most raspberries. This speaks well for the Wash that you are using, as the fruit was the finest seen on this market.” COME AND SEE US SPRAYING (100 Acres).
