commercial sizes and one sometimes 

 wonders where a market can be 

 found for such quantities o£ stock. 



In the fields are acres of canna and 

 more acres of dahlia all in full bloom 

 and what is more to the point all true 

 to name a fact which is unfortunately 

 not always a fact in the trade. The 

 cannas seem to have enjoyed the rains 

 of the past season and are if anything 

 better than usual. The dahlias not 

 being so partial to rain were just a 

 shade below some former years, look- 

 ing over the fields and yet in the show 

 the quality of blooms ran a bit higher. 



Under the guidance of Mr. Vincent 

 himself who had just returned from 

 the New York show (crowned as I 

 understand with honors and glory 

 enough to make the ordinary man too 

 proud to associate with we men of low 

 estate, but not this man who is a 

 florist through and through) we 

 visited the trial plot and the field of 

 novelties, here of course the center of 

 attraction was the new variety Pat- 

 rick O'Mara, of which the papers will 

 be full for the next few weeks, but to 

 see its habits and growth it must be 

 seen right here, and I believe that a 

 committee of experts would grade it 

 as high on these two points as they 

 did the flowers in New York. Going 

 up and down the rows in this plot 

 with Mr. Vincent, one soon realizes 

 why he has made such a wonderful 

 success of the dahlia, he is so full 

 of enthusiasm and love for them that 

 they simply have to respond with 

 quality and beauty. 



Mrs. Vincent was on hand with her 

 usual hearty welcome for the ladies. 

 During the afternoon our party pulled 

 out at intervals some for a trip 

 through Druid Hill Park of Baltimore 

 and others direct home, all well 

 pleased with the trip, and knowing 

 considerably more about dahlias than 

 they did the day before.

MR. MACKINTOSH IN NEW JERSEY 



Dear Sir: — In the last issue of 

 HuRTK i'i.tlm:, in the editorial "Im- 

 provement Needed" you refer to Mr. 

 D. L. Mackintosh as the well-known 

 horticulturist of Stillwater, Minn. 



Minnesota, however, can no longer 

 lay claim to Mr. Mackintosh, as he 

 came to the State of New Jersey in 

 .Tuly to take charge of the estate of 

 .Manuel Rionda "Rio Visto," Alpine. 

 N. J., which under the supervision of 

 Mr. Mackintosh is to be developed into 

 one of the finest country estates in 

 the East. 



Incidentally. Mr. Mackintosh also 

 holds the title of Vice-President of the 

 National Association of Gardeners. 

 M. C. Ebix. 



Be sure and get Me.xT Threads and take
