RED BANK, N. J. 



The greatest time the Monmouth Coun- 

 ty Horticultural Society ever had was at 

 its first annual dinner, held at the Sher- 

 idan Hotel, Ked Bank, December 22. 

 Much of the pleasure is to be attributed 

 to the toast-master, Patrick O'Mara. He 

 kept the company in a constant uproar 

 of laughter and the remarks of the vis- 

 itors were gratifying to the members as 

 well as to the toast-master. The different 

 speakers were the oflacers of the society 

 and Dr. W. S. Whitmore, John Yeomans, 

 N. Butterbach, the proprietor of the 

 Bed Bank Eegister, John Cook, and a 

 great many others. Charles H. Totty 

 responded for the Morris County Gar- 

 deners' and Florists' Club and John 

 Scott for the Tarrytown Horticultural 

 Society. B.
