THE GARDENERS' CHRONICLE OF AMERICA. 



OF INTEREST TO ALL 



CHARLES H. TOTTY FULLY RECOVERED. 



Charles H. Totty, of Madison, N. J., who was con- 

 fined to the Overlook Hospital, Summit, N. J., for a 

 month, undergoing an operation, returned to his home 

 on Friday, the 11 inst. Mr. Totty's health is so im- 

 proved that he is able again to attend to his business — 

 in fact, he felt so well on leaving the hospital that he 

 immediately proceeded to his greenhouses and enjoyed 

 an inspection of the same before going to his home. 



HARRY A. BUNYARD, PRESIDENT NEW YORK 

 FLORISTS' CLUB. 



At the annual meeting of the New York Florists' Club, 

 Harry A. Bunyard was elected to the presidency of that 

 organization, succeeding William H. Duckham. Re- 

 sponding to the call to the platform, Mr. Bunyard re- 

 marked that the election to the presidency of the New 

 York Florists' Club was the happiest moment of his life, 

 barring that of his marriage; that he never regretted 

 being married and felt sure that he would never regret 

 being elected to the presidency of the New York Florists' 

 Club, and trusted that the members would never have 

 cause to regret electing him to the office. J. Keney was 

 elected vice-president ; John Young, re-elected secretary ; 

 William C. Rickards, re-elected treasurer. W. R. Cobb, 

 J. H. Feisser and Emil Schloss were elected trustees. 



A MAMMOTH PLANT STORE. 



The MacNitf Horticultural Company, New York, is 

 completing what will probably be the largest store of its 

 kind in this country. It has leased the property next 

 door to its present location and is constructing a store 

 room 25 x 100 with ceiling 30 feet in height. This will 

 be connected with the main store and in it will be con- 

 ducted the auction sales. The height of the room will 

 permit the largest size palm and indoor plants being ex- 

 hibited therein for exhibition purposes. 



AMERICAN SWEET PEA SOCIETY. 



A meeting of the executive board of the American 

 Sweet Pea Society was held at the offices of Peter Hen- 

 derson & Co., New York City, on Tuesday afternoon, 

 November 24, with W. .A.tlee Ijurpee in the chair. The 

 principal business was the arrangements for the shows 

 to be held during the coming Summer. It has been ar- 

 ranged that two shows be held ; one in San Francisco, 

 the other in Newport, R. I. The dates for the San 

 Francisco show have not yet been fixed. The Newport 

 show, which is to be held under the auspices of the New- 

 port Garden Association and the Newport Horticultural 

 Society, in the Newport Casino, will open on July 8, and 

 continue through July 9. A very liberal preliminary 

 premium list has been prepared and issued by the New- 

 port organizations. Since this time the Newport Gar- 

 den Club has donated $100 in prizes. Copies of this 

 preliminary schedule mav be obtained of the secretary, 

 Harry A. Bunyard. 342 West Fourteenth street. New
