A unique decoration was made with lilies, 

 with a fine specimen of Plumbago Ca- 

 pensis as a center. 



In Springfield, Mass., everything in 

 flowering stock is at present pretty well

 the time of their lives. Let us hope the 

 records of sales will equal, if not surpass,

 roses and was asked many questions 

 about them, which he readily and will- 

 ingly answered. He received a very 

 hearty vote of thanks. 



Peter Zuger spoke of the culture of 

 the hardy roses in the rose gardens at 

 Elizabeth park, of which he has charge

 blossom of the William Duekham chrysan- 

 themum, of a pink color, which measured

that in raising some plants to grow as 

 standards for the fall season he had 

 this one shoot that was bound to throw 

 buds instead of foliage, so he let it
