the florists' business with Peter Hen- 

 derson. In 1889 he bought the Lock- 

 hardt greenhouses, in Farmington, and 

 greatly enlarged and improved them, 

 building up a fine business. He was 

 trusted and esteemed in an unusual de- 

 gree by all his acquaintances. He is 

 survived by his wife and four children, 

 three daughters and one son. 



WASHINGTON. 



Current Gimment. 



Business is steadily improving. Roses 

 and carnations are looming up finely, 

 with plenty of chrysanthemums, which 

 sell at $1 to $5 per dozen. 



Mr. Miller, who is in charge of the 

 greenhouses at the Industrial Home 

 School, is cutting some exceptionally fine 

 mums and carnations, which would be 

 splendid show flowers. 



J. H. Davis has completed another 

 house for violets at his range on the 

 Chain Bridge road, D. C. 



D. G. Dalgleash, formerly with Blind 

 & Bros., of Pittsburg, has taken a posi- 

 tion with Geo. Cooke, at his Connecticut 

 avenue store. O. O. 



MANCHESTER, MASS. 



The regular meeting of the North 

 Shore Horticultural Society was held 

 November 1, President McGregor in the 

 chair. The report of the show commit- 

 tee for the current year was read and ac- 

 cepted. A certificate of merit was 

 awarded to Eric Wetterlow for a dis- 

 play of pompon and anemone-flowered 

 chrysanthemums. James Salter had on 

 exhibition several fine seedling anemone- 

 flowered varieties, one lavender-colored 

 flower being of especial merit, for which 

 the society awarded him a special prize. 



The subject for discussion was nitro- 

 culture, being opened by William Till. 

 Samples of the culture were used to illus- 

 trate remarks by the speaker. Cultures 

 in liquid form were furnished by the 

 Department of Agriculture, and cultures 

 dried on cotton were furnished by 

 Schlegel & Fottler Co. A vote of thanks 

 was extended to Karl Kellerman for the 

 samples. W. T. 



Shillington, Pa. — The Deeds Floral
