The origina- tious hitherto stihniittetl anti ac (ztrptotl for recording include three varieties of the glatltoltis, two var- ieties of the clirysanthenttitn, one ruse and a now strawberry.

lu one instance the registration committee oi the Council were confronted with the question of changing the ‘name of one of the plants‘ presented. This was the chryszintliemtitii registered as “J. It. llooth." an immense yellow orig- inated at the Central Experimental I-‘ztrm, Ottawa, and under test by a firtn of growers in the United State-s. At the New York Flower Show this variety attracted the at» tcntion of the Japanese Ambassador, who asked that its name be changed to “Princess Nngnko." The registration com- inlttee could not see their way to agree because of the possible con llltiiOil that might arise, and in this they were upheld by the Board of Directors of the Council. The committee has reached the (lecision to officially record the characteristics and origin of a number of standard varieties of fruit. These are the "Hilborn" black raspberry, the "Joscelyn" gooscberry, tho "Herbert" rasp- berry. the "McIntosh" and “Fam- P1190" apples. "Saunders" black cnrrant. the "Fltzgerals" peach, and the "Windsor" cherry, all of which

originated in Canada.
