morning everybody was out bright and 

 early on the board walk, and about 10 

 o'clock the majority of the florists took a 

 dip in the ocean, which waa the first 

 time for many. 



(Jn the way home, tne members of the 

 Gardeners' Club decided to take up a 

 collection among themselves. Fifty dol- 

 lars were at once subscribed, and it is 

 expected that some sort of silver piece 

 will be purchased as a present for Mr. 

 Harrison. 



Various Notes. 



John M. Bider, of Brooklyn, Md., one 

 of our largest carnation growers, lost 

 his_ barn and the entire crop of hay 

 which it contained recently by fire. The 

 loss was partially covered by insurance. 



Mrs. McBoberts has rented her green- 

 houses to the firm conducting The Fern- 

 ery, on North Charles street. A. F. 



Berea, 0. — M. Bloy says weather con- 

 ditions are decidedly against good 

 growth, being extremely hot and damp, 

 inducing soft growth on roses and ne- 

 cessitating a hard fight against mil- 

 dew. Carnations are being planted and 

 Mr. Bloy expects to be finished in time 

 to attend the convention. 



Galena, III.— B. F. Vandervate has 

 received the first shipment of material 

 for the new houses which he will build 

 this fall. There will be two, one 16x100 

 and the other 24x100.
