The Weekly Florists' Review* 



June 21, 1000. 



ELBERON, N. J. 



The Elberon Horticultural Society 

 held its first rose and strawberry 

 show on Monday, June 11. There 

 was an excellent display of roses, 

 strawberries, and cut flowers, some fine 

 exhibits being staged. The principal 

 awards were as follows: For best col- 

 lection of strawberries, A. Greil won 

 first; for best dish of strawberries, G. 

 Conover ; for best collection of roses, 

 J. Kennedy; for best twelve roses, F. 

 Dettlinger; for best vase of sweet peas, 

 A. Bauer. 



Special prizes were awarded to W. D. 

 Bobertson for a fine collection of cut 

 flowers; to H. Hall for a vase of pop- 

 pies; A. Bauer for a vase of peonies, 

 and a special prize donated by F. B. 

 Pierson C'o., Tarrytown, was won by G. 

 Kennedy for a vase of roses. The judges 

 of the evening were Mr. Kennedy, of 

 Oceanic, and H. A. Bunyard, of New 

 York. 



The society holds its summer show 

 July 13 and 14 and everything indicates 

 at the present time that it will be quite 

 a success. G. M. 



NORTHERN TEXAS. 



It is ideal growing weather. Mums 

 are planted and are making fine growth. 

 Cnrnations in the field are doing well; 

 one can .tiraost see them grow. Boses 

 are putting on fine growth for fall 

 bloom, and all nature smiles. 



So far I have had no reason to change 

 my first impression of the possibilities 

 of this country. Granting that the heat 

 is intense during July and August, yet 

 1 have no doubt that deep and constant 

 cultivation will do wonders. My obser- 

 vations lead me to believe that the ma- 

 jority do not give the attention necessary 

 to succeed. Another thing, I find here 

 the preference is given to unintelligent 

 labor simply because it is cheap. This I 

 think is a great mistake. 



Be[»ortH from diflferent sections are 

 A-ery flattering. The volume of trade 

 has increased considerably over last year, 

 and those who are in a position to speak 

 claim that the outlook for the coming 

 season is good. 



Mr. Majors, formerly with Munson, at 

 Denison, but now with the Texas Nur- 

 sery Co.. reports plenty of work at his 

 place. Narcissus. 



Stamford, Conn. — Alma C. Lindstrom 

 removed May 1 to a large new store on 

 Bank street, where two wide show win- 

 dows afford facilities for a fine display. 

 A better spring business than ever has 

 been done.
