PLANT NOTES. 



Auctioneer W. J. E'liott says that 

 the fall season's sales already show a 

 substantial amount ahead of last year's 

 record at the same date. In the stock 

 recently sold for an old Newark (N. 

 J.) estate was an enormous Pandanus 

 utilis, estimated to be over 100 years 

 old. 



The deck strike which has been on 

 for the past four weeks at Antwerp 

 has seriously aitected the palm and 

 azalea shipments. So great has been 

 the accumulation of goods at Antwerp 

 that much freight has been sent round- 

 about via Rotterdam, where much of 

 it has had to remain for days await- 

 ing room on the steamers. This is not 

 only a great annoyance to consignors 

 and consignees, but the delay in deliv- 

 eries, which are now two to three 

 weeks behind last year's dates, causes 

 much solicitude as to the condition of 

 the plants when they do arrive. 



MOVEMENTS OF GARDENERS. 



Alex. Adam, gardener for Alfred J. 

 Vanderbilt, at Oakland Farms, Ports- 

 mouth. R. I., for the past three years, 

 has resigned his position. The popu- 

 larity of Mr. Adam with his fellow 

 employes was impressively demon- 

 strated by the presentation of a gold 

 watch from the laborers and a silver 

 tea set from the foremen and monthly 

 men on the estate, at the time of his 

 leaving.
