And he was one of three,
And he rushed into his mothers room
When she had companie.

To listen to this three years child,
Who always hath his will.

Eftsoons his cherub lips do part,

Immediately are, Glow shall we prepare

Editor Floral Department:
The Cydonia Japonica. or Japan
Ounce, formerly known under the old
botanical name of Pyrus Japonica, is, on
account of the brilliant display OF it's
blooms, justly appreciated by all lovers
OF the beautiful. Like the Grape Myrtle
this shrub is given to stooling out
great DEAL and the outer stems incline
to shoot out in a diagonal direction, in
somuch that under favorable conditions
the top will add nearly a foot to it's diam
eter each year.
The flowers are five petaled, about an
inch in diameter, and of a brightcrimson
and scarlet color and put out in advance
of the leaves and are generally thickly
dispersed over the branches, so that the
name Burning Bush, frequently applied
to it, appears to have not been bestowed
in vain.
In our public parks this shrub has IN
doubtedly been more extensively planted
out than that of any other particular
species. Beautiful groups and fancy
hedges there attest to it's appreciation.
those who plant out small shrubs will
sometimes have to wait two or three
years for the appearance OF the first
bloom, but from that time onward it
never fails in that particular.
Wishing to test it's adaptability to the
soil and climate OF Florida, /, some years
ago, took with me there, several
shrubs and was well pleased with the re-
suit of the experiment. With moderate
amount of fertilizer applied around them
they made a good growth and we're en-
tirely exempt from disease and all insect
enemies, and when the time came for
them to array themselves in their gor-
geous bloom, I realized to my satisfac-
tion that they had not lost any of the
| rich tints that characterize them in the
