Dahlia night was observed by the New 

 Jersey Floricultural Society on the eve- 

 ning of October 4. Besides a large dis- 

 play of dahlias by private gardeners and 

 amateur growers, there were many trade 

 displays. J. C. Williams, of Montclair, 

 exhibited fourteen varieties of dahlias, 

 and also peaches and grapes. Lager & 

 Hurrell, of Summit, exhibited orchids, 

 including Cypripedium Fairieanum, the 

 celebrated lost orchid rediscovered in 

 Thibet by Col. Younghusband. Julius 

 Roehrs Co., of Butherford, showed sev- 

 eral rare orchids. Joseph A. Manda, of 

 West Orange, exhibited orchids, includ- 

 ing a number of his own seedlings. 

 Thomas Jones, of Short Hills, brought a 

 vase of dahlias. J. B. D.

The Market. 



A most unsatisfactory week, at least 

 among the wholesalers, has passed since 

 last report. The early part of the week 

 there seemed to be a big demand for 

 stock and nothing with which to fill or- 

 ders, but the last two days stock arrived 

 in great quantities, especially dahlias 

 and chrysanthemums. There were not 

 enough orders to take the stock. The 

 present week opened with beautiful, 

 bright days and chrysanthemums are 

 coming in quantities. 



The retailers were not much better 

 off than the wholesalers last week. They 

 were out of humor because they could 

 not get stock to fill orders and what they 

 did get was not always satisfactory.
