DENVER. COLO. 



Thanksgiving trade was good. The 

 only complaint being that there was not 

 enough flowers. Violets and Beauties 

 seemed to take the lead ; mums were not 

 as much in demand as was expected. 



The Gallup Floral Company had the 

 decorations at the Broadway theater for 

 the memorial services of the Elks, which 

 were very fine. 



Carnations seem to be off crop just at 

 present and are slow in coming in. 

 Stevia and hyacinths are coming in to 

 help out variety. 



One of the firfest sights to be seen at 

 an}' of the greenhouses is found at the 

 City park, where a 6-foot bench about 50 

 feet long is planted to poinsettias. Old 

 plants in the center, young plants on the 

 sides and seedlings on one end. They 

 are a mass of scarlet bracts and growing 

 so fast that one can almost see them in- 

 crease in size. Thorne. 



TARRYTOWN, N. Y. 



At the last meeting of the Tarrytown 

 Horticultural Society two new members 

 were elected and five new applications 

 were received. 



Officers for the ensuing year were 

 nominated as follows: President. Wil- 

 liam Scott; vice-president, David Mc- 

 Farland; secretary, Edward Neubrand; 

 treasurer, F. E. Pierson; corresponding 

 secretary, H. J. Rayner; executive com- 

 mittee, Francis Gibson, J. E. Whyte, 

 Alex. Hogg, Thos. Cockburn. Thos. A. 

 Lee, H. H. Hyland, Jno. Elliott, Jacob 

 Knodel, Wm. McCord, James Nicol, A. 

 A. Taafe. 



Reports regarding the recent exhibi- 

 tion showed a balance in the hands of 

 the treasurer. H. J. Rayner. 



Astoria, N. Y. — Henry Pritchard, the 

 Bartow street florist, is in St. Luke's 

 hospital, New York, where he has been 

 confined by severe illness for the last 

 five weeks. 



I AM more than pleased wi^h the Re- 

 view. Everything in it is good and in- 

 teresting and has been a great help to 

 me. — Peter Lundblad, Long Lake, Minn. 



The Review is O. K. and I wish you 

 success for another year. — William 

 WiCKHAM, Adrian, Mich. 



Although I am a busy man I always 

 take time to view the Review, and I al- 

 ways find something to interest me. — 

 F. J. Fillmore, St. Louis, Mo.
