IN make the following report: Fruit
trees and fruit buda went into winter
quarters under rather unfayOrable cir
Cumstances, True the timber was well
rlpened, but the month of November. ex-
cept few cold days, up TO the middle OF
December waa warm, fine growing
weather, NO that fruit buds OF all kinds
became somewhat developed, and the
cold snap soon after, with the therm0me-
Ter indicating 10 and IL degrees below
zero, surely killed a quantity OF the
buds. The month Just past gave the
buds another drive, which may have
killed a large quantity Gf the buds, the
thermometer indicatingS and 10 degrees
below zero, Peaches mostly killed. The
result can easily be- detected when the
buds thaw. JACOB huPERD,

Mrs. LUCETTA CoRRELL died Dec. eth,
1888, We cnnn0t but regret having been
appointed by our President TO present
sentiments Of respect 10 the memory Of
our late Horticultural sister, Mira, SHml
COrrell, because having known and
loved her, having Oft enjoyed her gem
er0us hospitality, and now, sadly miss
INK tho kindly greeting, tho tender
touch aud tone, the familiar presence,
we, with her family are mOurners, and
no word Of ours can adequately express
our individual grief, OF retiring, un-
Obtrusiye nature. II was the pleasure Of
few friends only 10 know her higher
qualities OF mind aud heart; they
tNecd not tho praise ot tho loyewilten record.

To the husband who, through fOrty.thTee
years iOurneyed shoulder 10 shoulder
with her In the fellowship and commun-
lon Of the marital relation, we tender
our earnest sympathy, For their chill
dren, five OF whom survive her we can
express no better wish than that her
mantel may fall upon them and, like
her, may they anchor their hopes IN
heayen, In her death our society loses
a quiet, earnest member, whose interest
IN its development and progress never
abated, though through weary months
Of suffering deprived OF its delightful
privileges, She was nm enthusiastic
and successful florist, aud her c0ntribu-
tlOna will be missed through the years

llfe's usefulness stimulate us 10 q larger
growth, 10 nobler self.abnegation, To
greater devotion 10 our sOclety's Interest
