 of points, with a maximum for each 

 exhibit of twenty-five points. At the 

 May meeting the members having the 

 largest point totals will be awarded $5, 

 $3 and $2. This method of exhibits

 seconded by Messrs. Currie and Siebert. 

 At this meeting the Fifth Avenue Floral 

 Co. received twenty points for an espe- 

 cially good Begonia Gloire de Lorraine; 

 Sherman Stephens fifteen points for a 

 Jerusalem cherry and John H, Williams 

 fifteen points for a fine Tarrytown fern. 

 Just as the meeting was about to ad-

 a lunch had been prepared and ^ample 

 attention was given to this matter^ The 

 next regular meeting falling on Christ- 

 mas day, it was decided to adjourn to 

 the first Tuesday in January, 1907, 



Various Notes. 



The Fifth Avenue Floral Co. reports 

 one of the busiest weeks this year in 

 funeral work. Their recently added new 

 houses make a total of ten — one of our 

 large plants. 



Sherman Stephens has ready for the 

 Christmas sales a fine lot of poinsettias 

 in small pans. 



Graflf Bros, have a most attractive 

 Christmas window. Simply holly, red 

 immortelle wreaths and bells, but the 

 efli'ect is elegant. This firm is making 

 a specialty of immortelle wreaths, selling 

 them for $2 to $3 each. 



After an illness of four years Eliza- 

 beth Cook Stephens, wife of Lorin C. 

 Stephens, foreman at Green cemetery, 

 died December 5.

I WOULD as soon think of getting along 

 without a boiler in my establishment as 

 to miss having the Keview. It is the 

 proper thing.— ^N. H. Padgett, Unadilla,

After preparations for the eleventh 

 annual smoker were made Mr. Totty told 

 us of the new chrysanthemums and how 

 they showed up at the exhibitions. In 

 the mind of the speaker, Miss Clay Frick 

 or the v^te Wm. Duckham was away 

 ahead in whites, and Miriam Hankey 

 stood the same in pinks. The stem, 

 foliage and shipping qualities of these 

 two varieties should make them popular 

 for a long time to come. Mrs. George
