TARRYTOWN HORTICULTURAL 

 SOCIETY. 



The eleventh annual dinner of the 

 Tarrytown Horticultural Society was 

 held at the Florence Hotel, Tarrytown, 

 N. v., on Wednesday evening, January 

 12. 



About seventy-five sat down to the 

 dinner, which was one of the best 

 ever prepared at the hotel. The table 

 was beautifully decorated with flowers. 



John Woodcock, president of the 

 Society, bid everyone welcome in a 

 few well chosen remarks and after 

 the dinner Henry C. Griffin acted as 

 toastmaster and called upon a num- 

 ber of those present tor speeches. 



J. Austin Shaw gave an interesting 

 speech and well maintained the pres- 

 tige of the professionals. 



Andrew H. Brown made a short ad- 

 dress, and on behalf of the gardeners 

 of the Society presented Edward W. 

 Neubrand, the secretary, with a pair 

 of military brushes and a pair of gold 

 <;uff buttons. Mr. Neubrand was very 

 much surprised and thanked the 

 ■donors for the gifts. 



P. R. Pierson, president of the S. A. 

 P., was the next one called upon. He 

 spoke of the flourishing condition of 

 the Society and of its success locally 

 and elsewhere. Surrogate Frank V. 

 Millard, M. D. Raymond, former 

 €ditor of the Tarrytown Argus, 

 Senator Charles P. McClelland of 

 Dobbs Peri-y, James Duthie from the 

 Nassau Horticultural Society and 

 Assemblyman Frank L. Young of 

 Ossining, also made addresses. 



NEPHROLEPIS ELEGANTISSIMA COMPACU 



Another New Fern OrisiaatinE with Us* ITo be introduced Fall, 1909. 



Of all the valuable introductions in ferns that we have sent out, beginning with the Pierson (Nephrolcpis 

 Piersoni), we consider Elegantissima com pacta the most valuable of all, particularly from a commercial standpoint. 



While this resembles Elegantissima in a general way, it is far superior to that variety, on account of its perfect 

 habit Yet it can hardly be compared with Elegantissima except in a generil way, because it occupies a place by 

 itself, and is as distinct from Elegantissima as that variety is from Piersont, — in fact, it bears the same relation to 

 Elegantissima that Scottii does to Bostoniensis. 



Elegantissima compacta has an ideal habit. The fronds are considerably shorter than those of Elegantissima, 

 and it is a more compact plant. It throws a great many more crowns naturally, making a very busby, dwarf, com- 

 pact plant. The diSerence between the two varieties can be seen at a glance. 



Fine, strong plants, 2V4-ln. pots. $5.00 per dozen. $35.00 per 100; 4-ln. pots, $7.50 per 

 dozen, $50.00 per 100; 6*ln. pans, $1.50 eact> ; 8-m. pans, $3.00 eacb. 



We make a specialty of all kinds of Nephrolepis, carrying a large stock of all sizes at all times, — Piertoni, 

 Elegantissima, Superbissima, Bostoniensis, Scottii, Whitmani, Amerpohit, etc.
