The Weekly Florists' Review, 



JAJSIUARY 19, 1899. 



MADISON, N, J. 



Morris county gardeners and florists 

 lield their regular meeting in Masonic 

 Hall, Madison, on Wednesday night. 

 The retiring officers were re-elected, as 

 follows: President, W. Duckham; sec- 

 retary, C. H. Atkins: treasurer, W. 

 Charlton; the only change being C. 

 H. Totty in place of J. Jones as vice- 

 president. H. W. Gibbons. R. McMul- 

 lin, J. E. Lager and D. Carlyle were 

 elected to till the four vacancies on the 

 general committee. 



The secretary presented his report, 

 which gave 65 members in good stand- 

 ing. The treasurer reported all lia- 

 bilities liquidated and a balance of 

 over $500 to the society's credit in the 

 bank. J. Jones was awarded eleven 

 points for an exhibit of carnations and 

 received a high commendation for his 

 violets, with special mention of the 

 Farquhar violet. As exhibited by Mr. 

 Jones, it was superb, far ahead of 

 Marie Louise from the same house and 

 in truth the largest, most double and 

 most beautiful bunch of violets we had 

 «ver seen. It was decided to have a 

 banquet, as last year, and a committee 

 ■was appointed to arrange for its being 

 held at an early date. 



Mr. E. Reagen was to have given a 

 talk on "Leaves and Their Functions," 

 but owing to the time involved in elec- 

 tions and reports of officers, insuffi- 

 cient time remained, so the subject 

 will come up at the next meeting.

ORANGE, N. J. 



The annual banquet of the New Jer- 

 sey Floricultural Society was held Jan- 

 uary 6 and was attended by about 60 

 membere and guests. 



Among the speakers were Patrick 

 O'Mara, from the New York Garden- 

 ers' Association; William McMillan, 

 superintendent of the Essex county 

 parks; Dr. J. M. W. Kitchen, of East 

 Orange; George Smith, of Orange: W. 

 J. Stewart, of Boston: John Bartholo- 

 mew, president of New York Garden- 

 ers' Association: J. H. Troy and Jas. 

 T. Withers, of New York. 



Before the dinner a meeting of the 

 society was held, when the following 

 officers were elected: President, Peter 

 Duff: vice-president, John Hayes; sec- 

 retary, Joseph Davis; treasurer, Geo. 

 Smith. 



After the meeting three bowling 

 matches were played between the 

 members of the Orange Society and 

 the members of the New York Garden- 

 ers' Association and the Orange boys 

 succeeded in winning two games out 

 of the three. 



JUST AFTER last issue was printed 

 ■we received instructions from J. M. 

 Thorburn & Co. to omit Roman hya- 

 cinths from their adv. It was unfor- 

 tunately too late to do this. This ex- 

 planation is made to those who may 

 have ordered after bulbs were all dis- 

 posed of.
