May 11, 1906. 



OCEANIC N. J. 



At the May meeting of the Monmouth 

 County Horticultural Society the prizes 

 were presented to the authors of the best 

 essays on "Fruit Culture Under Glass." 

 Percy Hicks received a silver cup as 

 first prize and Harry GriflSths received 

 the society's certificate as second prize. 



The prize winners on essays on chrys- 

 anthemum culture were announced. Mr. 

 Griflaths received first prize and Joseph 

 Kennedy second. So much time was tak- 

 en up by the business matters of the 

 evening that it was decided to postpone 

 the reading o4 these essays until next 

 meeting, at which time the prizes will be 

 handed to the winners. 



The first annual rose show of the so- 

 ciety is to be held in Eed Men's hall on 

 June 16. The prize list has been pre- 

 pared, Avith awards for garden roses, also 

 a class for teas and classes for sweet 

 peas and strawberries. A very good ex- 

 hibition is in prospect. 



JAMAICA, N. Y. 



On the night of April 20 Henry 

 Grebe, in a moment of mental depres- 

 sion, took his own life. He was a native 

 of Darmstadt, Germany, 53 years of 

 age. He learned the florists' trade at 

 Darmstadt and had a flourishing business 

 prior to his coming to this country some 

 twenty years ago. He entered upon 

 business here and was quite successful as 

 a grower, although his natural inclina- 

 tion was toward machinery and he spent 

 his spare time in building engines, etc., 

 of his own invention for his son. He 

 was of a very nervous disposition and 

 his health had been known to be failing 

 for some time. Eecently he had been 

 inclined to melancholy, but without rea- 

 son, for he was in good circumstances 

 and possessed of a happy home. At the 

 time of his death he was engaged upon 

 extensive alterations upon his green- 

 houses. His wife was a sister of W. C. 

 Krick, of Brooklyn. Two sons are left 

 with her.
