The Weekly Florists' Review. 



Ju.nb 11, 1903. 



MONTREAL. 



Considering the busy season, the last 

 club meeting was well attended. The 

 executive committee's report was pre- 

 sented by W. Horobin, the secretary. It 

 was decided to go to St. Rose for the 

 annual picnic and make it "the best 

 ever." G. Vreugde, of Lachine, read an 

 essay on grafting and budding, illus- 

 trated by specimens. Upon request of 

 the club Mr. Gibb, of the Civic Garden, 

 consented to prepare a paper to be read 

 before the C. H. A. at the annual con- 

 vention. A. Wilshire was elected to the 

 executive committee. 



Trade is keeping "so so," with an 

 oversupply of roses and carnations. Bed- 

 ding plants are moving fast, but coleus 

 ami tender stuff is scarce, owing to the 

 late frost. After two months of drought 

 it is useless to speak of outdoor flowers. 

 The young carnations are planted, but 

 in some places only after the fields had 

 been watered for days. Nothing grows. 



C. Gorman is building a new house 

 for mums and P. McKenna & Son one 

 for miscellaneous plants. 



W. Alcoek is convalescing after an op- 

 eration in the hospital.

ORANGE, N.J. 



The monthly meeting of the New Jer- 

 sey Floricultural Society was held June 

 3. The display of flowers, fruits and 

 vegetables filled the entire center of 

 the room. Peter Duff's collection of 

 vegetables and an adiantum grown by 

 D. Kindsgrab received the maximum 

 number of points. The names of the 

 donors of the four silver cups were 

 made public for the first time and were 

 Sydney Colgate, John Crosby Brown, O. 

 D. Munn, J. Van Gasbeck and W. Jen- 

 kins, all of Orange. A paper read by 

 Andrew Grierson, gardener for Mrs. 

 Hicks Arnold, Port Chester, N. Y., on 

 the cultivation of outdoor roses was 

 listened to with marked attention. 



On June 5 the rose contest for the 

 silver cup donated by Major Isaac 

 Schoenthal was held. Considerable care 

 had been given to the decoration of the 

 room, in addition to the roses which 

 filled the center. All the near-by pri- 

 vate estates were represented in one way 

 or another. The winner of the cup was 

 D. Kindsgrab, gardener for Wm. Run- 

 kle. J. B. D. 



Oakland, Cal. — W. E. Davies pro- 

 poses to make a start at carnation 

 growing, building a house 24x130.
