Hardison writes from Florida giving a detailed account of the effect of freezing temperatures on citrus fruit,—flavor, content and keeping quality. No vegetables wholly escaped except lettuce. He mentions specially an extensive area of lettuce."The rows ran the length of the field straight as an arrow as far as you could see, not a plant missing and at th'e stage when they had begun to head. It was peaty damp soil and the rows of plants were set on ridges exactly parallel and about two feet apart as I remember. It was worth the sight of any one who likes to see a good job of husbandry." There seems to be one question as yet unanswered:—the effect of freezlng temperatures on the blossoming of orange and grapefruit trees for next year's crop.

Mrs. Frank P. Hill, nee Miss Annie Maria Wood, of Lowell, died at her home In Hartford, Conn., January 31, 1940. Though her impairment of health dated back several years, she was not troubled in ordinary activities till a short time before her death. All through her life, but still more definitely in later years, her interest and satisfactions were centered in her home and friends, and through these her tastes and gifts found full and most happy expression. She was the mother of four sons and two daughters; with her husband these all, except one son, survive her.
