The Bloomingdale Bros.' roof 

 sreenhouses covering 25,000 square 

 feet of floor space at Third avenue 

 and Fifty-ninth street, New York, 

 were the scene of a great orchid ex-

 (iichids in bloom as well as decorative 

 plants of all kinds was very compre-

 placed the following in my hands

 this year.
