The American Institute Wednesday 

 afternoon lectures are enjoying better at-

 lighted with his audience and reception. 

 This week James Wood lectures on com. 



The new officers of the New York Flo- 

 rists' Club, Messrs. Weathered, Marshall, 

 Young and Allen, gave a beefsteak din- 

 ner to the retiring officers, trustees and 

 recent additions to the official staff, Jan- 

 uary 9, at one of the popular hostelries 

 of the west side. The only absentees 

 were Messrs. Julius Roehrs, Jr., John 

 Scott and A. Bickards. The president 

 of the S. A. F. was the guest of honor. 

 In addition to the hosts there were pres- 

 ent Messrs. Totty, Sheridan, Manda, 



Donaldson, Du Bie, Hallock, Quttman, 

 Nugent and Burnie. Mr. Weathered pre- 

 sided with dignity and suavity, a happy 

 augury for the year's developments. 

 About everything of importance was 

 considered, from world's shows and 

 amalgamations to dinners, outings and 

 harmony. If the club does not double 

 its membership in 1908, it will not be 

 the fault of the Big Four. 



C. C. Trepel and wife, of the Blossom, 

 Brooklyn, have been enjoying a two 

 weeks' rest in Atlantic City. 



I visited the orchid factory of Lager 

 & Hurrell, at Summit, N. J., January 8. 

 Lord & Burnham built most of it some 

 twelve years ago. There are over 50,000 

 square feet of glass. Out of 6,000 

 known species of orchids this firm has 



half of them. Altogether there are over 

 100,000 orchid plants housed here and 

 they are coming and going all the time. 

 Shipments are made to Shanghai, Yoko- 

 hama, Trinidad, Hawaii and Australia, 

 with perfect safety. The goods go by 

 express in ventilated boxes. The outlook 

 is most satisfactory and the growing 

 popularity of the orchid, they say, more 

 and more encouraging. Fancy cypripe- 

 diums are attracting at present the 

 greatest interest. Cattleya Trianae is 

 now in bloom, and others will follow in 

 rotation. From one enthusiast, whose 

 travels in South America would make a 

 book of interesting research and discov- 

 ery, the inspiration has spread until in 

 this vicinity a dozen expert orchidists 

 have developed and the wholesale mar-
