THAT'S ONE REASON why the Bayersdorfer & Co. Exhibit at Rochester caused so much interest 

 and induced so many heavy orders from the sagacious florists who go to conventions.

 mand fnr Boston fi^rns, Whitmani, etc.,

 Opening of Land Show. 



The last plant was not removed from 

 the Coliseum when the building was 

 taken possession of by the Land Show

1 usinf ss is in any way related to soil 

 and climate. Plenty of pointers, too, 

 can lie had on arrangement and deco- 

 ration. From the blue sky effect over- 

 head to the smallest booth in the re- 

 motest corner the color scheme has 

 lieen carried ou: to enhance the ap- 

 pearance of the exhibits. The booths 

 are enclosed with white lattice work, 

 diaped with autumn vines and the 

 products in each booth are arranged 

 artistically. The exposition was for- 

 inalb' opened by Secretary of Agricul- 

 ture Wilson, Mho heartily commended 

 the enteijirise. 



Trade and Personal Jottings. 



Mangel's windows are attractive 

 with Begonia Gloire de Cincinnati, 

 the pots covered with matting to 

 match. 



The Bohanan Floral Co. last week 

 broke the record of sales since open- 

 ing their store in the University Club 

 building. 



Friedman used some of the finest 

 specimen plants from the flower show 

 to decorate at the opening of the 

 Strauss bank last week. 



An effort is being made to have the 

 ordinances prohibiting hospitals with- 

 in 400 feet of schools amended so as 

 to apply also to public parks. 



Strail & Hahn have been unusually 

 busy the past month and have a most 

 peculiar order booked for next week, 

 of which details will appear in next 

 issue. 



.Tens .Jensen, Chicago's well-known 

 landscape artist, recently expressed 

 himself at the Chicago Woman's Club 

 as opposed to a building line tor resi- 

 dences because some houses require 

 more space in front than others to 

 show off their best points. He advo- 

 cated the abolishing of the building 

 line in the city. 



A very effective decoration for a 

 game supper was enjoyed by the guests 

 at the Union League. One end of the 

 banquet hall was built up to represent 

 a cliff and covered with plants and 

 moss. At the foot was a rocky basin 

 into which a small stream flowed 

 down the cliff. The other sides of the 

 room were decorated with small trees 

 and the forest idea carried out.

James McGilligray has resigned his 

 position as gardener for R. R. Bleeker
