NEW YORK STATE FAIR. 



Floriculture. 



Tho floiiil oxhibit of the New York 

 state fair, held September 12 to 17, was 

 in the Manufacturers' building, at Syra- 

 cuse, N. v., as in jjrevious years. The 

 various florists' dubs of the state are 

 still working hard for a building ade 

 quate to display th<'ir product properly, 

 which is of sufficient importance to war- 

 rant the construction of a building de- 

 voted to flowers exclusively. This build- 

 ing, which they had liopes of occupying 

 this year, was .-tgain postponed for cer- 

 tain reasons of economy by the state 

 authorities. 



Fortunately, the space allotted to flori- 

 culture was not so congested as in 

 former years. Due to the advanced sea- 

 son, many of the large growers of as- 

 ters, gladioli, etc., were unable to ex- 

 hibit, their choice varieties being out of 

 bloom. These exhibits always are large 

 and reciuire much space to display them 

 properly. 



Their absence, at least in part, gave 

 more space for the large groups of stove 

 and greenhouse plants, which were ef- 

 fectively arranged in the center of the 

 hall. One of these groups, comprising 

 palms, ferns, ' crotons, etc., was splen- 

 didly exhibited by P. R. Quijilan. The 

 other group, composed of some of the 

 choicest collections of plants in central 

 New York, came from the private con- 

 servatories of Miss Bernice Smith. 



The various local florists' and gaiden- 

 ers* clubs occupied groups along the 

 outer walls of the building. Spaces be- 

 tween the groups were occupied by large 

 tables. On several of these tables were 

 staged a fine exhibit of ferns by F. R.

 also had an excellent collection of roses, 

 from the old stand-bys to the latest in- 

 troductions, for which he caj^ured 

 •many prizes. 



The north end of the hall was occu- 

 pied by the Syracuse Rose Society and 

 much credit is due the society for the 

 large collection and variety of roses. 

 This exhibit was placed for educational 

 purposes only and it fulfilled its mission 

 admirably, for practically every variety 

 of rose could be found here, correctly 

 named. South of this exhibit N. H. Cot- 

 tam, of Wappingers Falls, had a nice
