Business in gen^^r at the places vis-

OLEN COVE, N. Y. 



A sweet pea exhibition was held in 

 conjunction with the monthly meeting 

 of the Nassau County Horticultural So- 

 ciety at Glen Cove on the evening of 

 July 12. Although the exhibits were 

 not numerous, they were of good qual- 

 ity and made an excellent display in 

 the exhibition hall. James MacDonald, 

 Henry Gibson and Ernest Westlake 

 acted as judges. Henry Gaut, gardener 

 for Herbert L. Pratt, was awarded first 

 prizes for twelve varieties of sweet peas, 

 twelve sprays of each, for six varieties 

 of sweet peas, twelve sprays of each, 

 and special mention for a collection of 

 herbaceous flowers. James McCarthy, 

 gardener for W. Kimball, was awarded 

 first prizes for twenty-five white, twen- 

 ty-five pink, and twenty-five red sweet 

 peas, and second prize for six varieties 

 of sweet peas, twelve sprays of each. 

 The society's prizes for twenty -five 

 white, twenty-five pink, and twenty-five 

 any other color, were captured by Henry 

 Gaut. It was decided to hold the an- 

 nual chrysanthemum show in Pembroke 

 hall, Glen Cove, November 2 and 3. 

 James McCarthy, Cor. Sec 'y. 



Sayre, Pa. — Edward Snow comments 

 that while spring sales were good, being 

 better than in previous seasons, the 

 supply of stock showed the trade was 

 just a little optimistic, devoting all at- 

 tention to working up stock and none 

 to working up orders. There is a sur- 

 plus of all kinds of bedding stock, but 

 especially of geraniums.
