boring town of Independence Sunday 

 and called on the growers. We found 

 Ed Bunyar down in the boiler pit indus- 

 triously working to increase his coal bill. 

 Mr. Bunyar 's greenhouse is a model es- 

 tablishment and shows what can be ac- 

 complished on a small place by persever- 

 ance and strict attention to business. 

 He has only about 8,000 feet of glass, but 

 the stock, both in quantity and quality, 

 would be a credit to many places twice 

 its size. Only enough cut flowers, with 

 the exception of violets, are grown to 

 supply his home trade, the balance of the 

 place being devoted principally to the 

 growing of 2-inch stuff for the wholesale 

 trade. Mr. Bunyar says that he has 

 never been able to grow enough to sup- 

 ply the demand. He has one small house 

 in violets that are in splendid condition. 

 He will erect two more houses for the 

 coming summer, to be used for violets. 



Prom here we went to Mr. Broman's 

 place, east of town, where we found 

 everything in good shape. Mr. Broman 

 grows cut flowers and disposes of all 

 his stock to a firm in Kansas City. 



On the way back we stopped at R. S. 

 Brown & Sons' new range of houses. 

 There is about 40,000 feet of glass in 

 this range, planted principally to roses 



and carnations, which are in fine shape. 

 Being Sunday, we found no one at home 

 here but Fred Grofsky, the carnation 

 grower, who did the honors for us. 



Variotu Notes. 



The Shaeffer Floral Co. has received 

 a fine new automobile which is about 

 the swellest thing in town. 



Ed Humf eld's place is looking fine. His 

 carnations are in full crop and he is 

 cutting some fine ones. He reports a 

 very busy week, and has two big decora- 

 tions on hand for next week. 



Visitors last week were Wm. Hage- 

 mann. New York, and R. L. Isherwood, 

 ChiJlicothe, Mo. Kay-See. 



TARRYTOWN. N. Y. 



The annual dinner of the Tarrytown 

 Horticultural Society was held January 

 17 with the weather perfect, the attend- 

 ance up to the average and the menu as 

 good as the best. 



During the day the award committee 

 of the New York Florists ' Club spent the 

 afternoon at Scarboro, passing upon the 

 merits of the F. R. Pierson Co. 's new 

 carnations. Messrs Traendly, John 

 Young and William Plumb returned to 

 the city before the banquet but Messrs. 



Scott, Totty and Manda did it ample 

 justice. Other visitors from New York 

 were Messrs. Wheeler, Shaw and Pepper. 

 Secretary Newbrand presided in the ab- 

 sence of the society's president. Frank 

 Millard, an attorney, was toastmaster. 

 F. R. Pierson was among the speakers, 

 most of whom were not members of the 

 trade. John White sang Scotch songs so 

 sweetly that John Birnie would have 

 been in ecstacy if he could have heard 

 them. 



The society is in a most flourishing 

 condition, and made its usual great ex- 

 hibition record during the past year, and 

 the greatest harmony prevails. The long 

 and faithful services of the treasurer 

 were recognized by the presentation of a 

 valuable gold locket, Secretary New- 

 brand doing the honors in commendatory 

 terms. The gathering disbanded at mid- 

 night, declaring it was the most de- 

 lightful reunion in the society's his- 

 tory. J. A. S. 



Peoria, III. — After an illness of sev- 

 eral months J. C. Murray is now able to 

 be at his place of business a part of 

 I each day. With health and strength re- 

 turning he hopes soon to be able to de- 

 vote full time to the business.
