The Weekly Florists' Review. 



MARCH 1, 1900. 



OCEANIC, N. J. 



The third annual ball of the Mon- 

 mouth County Hort. Society was one 

 of the greatest events of the season. 

 There were over a hundred couples in 

 the grand march and some of the most 

 prominent people of Oceanic and 

 neighboring towns were present. At 

 12 o'cloclv supper was served and be- 

 fore the regular order of dancing was 

 started again an Irish breakdown was 

 danced and there was also a cal<e w'alk 

 in which Hugh Birch showed marked 

 aljility. 



It was about 4 o'clock when the or- 

 chestra played "Home, Sweet Home." 

 Most of the visitors on leaving asked, 

 "When shall we have our next one?" 

 and expressed themselves as having 

 had a jolly good time. The "Gar- 

 deners' ball," as it is called here, is 

 always -a great feature, but this year 

 it surpassed anything ever held in this 

 vicinity. 



The credit for the success of the af- 

 fair is due to the committee of ar- 

 rangements, Avhich consisted of 

 Messrs. Geo. Kuhn, Robert Murphy, 

 Thomas Mcintosh, Hugh Birch and Al- 

 bert Brighton. B,

There' was a small attendance at the 

 alleys last evening (Feb. 20th), but the 

 .scores were up to the average. Mr. M. 

 Bloy, who recently arrived from Buf- 

 falo, bowled his first game with us and 

 as the scores will show made a good 

 start. But he was not satisfied with 

 the three club games, so bowled an 

 additional game with the members and 

 made a score of 201, which was the 

 highest for the evening. Mr. B. finds 

 our alleys easy, or at least they seem 

 so to him. Herewith are the scores 

 for the evening:

In (jpening the bids for the nursery 

 stock required by the different parks 

 of Pittslnirg, it was found that Thomas 

 Meehan & Sons, the nurserymen and 

 landscape engineers of Germantown, 

 Philailelphia, Pa., were the lowest of 

 all bidders. This firm was awarded the 

 contracts for every section, amounting 

 in all to nearly ten thousand hardy 

 irees. shrubs, vines and evergreens.
