ORANGE, N.J. 



The regular nioiitlily meeting of the 

 Xew Jersey Florioultural Society, held nn 

 Wednesday, !March 5. continued the fea- 

 ture of the monthly flower show. Roses 

 and carnations in profusion were ex- 

 liibited by President (Jeorge JSmith. Vice 

 President \\illiani Bennett. .John Hayes, 

 Pet^r DufT and Dietrick Kindsgrah; or- 

 chids by Arthur Bodwell and Diciriik 

 Kindsgrab and vegetables and fruit li_v 

 Peter Duff, D. Kindsgrab and George 

 Smith. Four silver cups have been pro- 

 vided, the judging to be on a number of 

 given points, the gardener receiving Ihe 

 largest numl>er to receive the award. The 

 judges were Charles Totty, Malcolm Mac- 

 Korie and .1. E. Williams. 



The paper of the evening was pre- 

 sented by Charles Totty, of Sladison, on 

 'The Chrysanthemmn," the speaker con- 

 fining himself to cut flowers. Its pre- 

 sentation was the method in vogue at 

 riorham Farms and included packing 

 and transportation and was practical 

 and concise. 



Four new members \\ere elected and 

 letters from the New Jersey Horticul- 

 tural Society asking co-operation, and 

 from the Chrysanthemum .Society asking 

 for the conferring of a prize by this so- 

 ciety, were read. The former was referred 

 to individual memliers; the latter was 

 given to the executive committee with 

 pow-er. J. B. D. 



FARMINGTON, CONN. 



Hitchings & Co. are building a hand- 

 some private greenhouse on the Pope es- 

 tate. It will be 100x20 feet, of iron and 

 cypress, and will be first-elass in every 

 way. 



BiLsiness is quite dull just now. Lent 

 oeem.s to have quite a depressing effect, 



Roses are now doing finely, particu- 

 larly Americjin Beauties. Carnations, 

 violets and bullxius stuff are all respond- 

 ing vigorously to the beautiful sunshiny 

 days we have had. Azaleas will be early 

 for Easter this year. Lilies are coniins 

 on finely, and it looks now as though 

 there would be plenty for Easter.
