The Weekly Florists' Review^ 



July 9, 1908. 



LITCHFIELD, CONN. 



The annual rose and flower show^ 

 which also includes early vegetables, was 

 held in the town hall Thursday after- 

 noon, June 25. The exhibition was a 

 creditable one, and many beautiful flow- 

 ers were shown. The display from Miss 

 Alice T. Bulkeley's Rosemere Gardens 

 was one of the finest, there being many 

 exquisite roses, with foxgloves, coreopsis, 

 pansies, carnations, sweet-williams, lark- 

 spurs and many other kinds. From 

 Fernwood there was also a large and 

 beautiful display of many of the same 

 kinds of flowers. 



In the vegetable line the display from 

 Whitehall, Alain C. White's place, was 

 probably the finest. Mr. Putnam, of the 

 Fernwood, also had a fine exhibit. His 

 tomatoes, beets, cauliflower and straw- 

 berries were splendid specimens. Will- 

 iam Wilson's collection from Mrs. Van- 

 derpoel's garden was excellent, his peas 

 being especially fine. Others who sent 

 were W, S. Walcott, of Elms Farms; 

 Francis M. Coe, from Cloverdale; Elm 

 Bidge farm, and Forked Chimneys, Sey- 

 mour Cunningham 's place. 



OGDEN, UTAH. 



At the great "Four-County Fair," 

 which will be held here September 30 

 to October 3, inclusive, there will be de- 

 partments for exhibits in flowers, plants, 

 seeds, vegetables and other horticultural 

 products. Gold medals and cash prizes 

 will be awarded. The four counties that 

 are uniting in this contest are Box Elder, 

 Davis, Morgan and Weber. The man- 

 agers advertise that "the exhibition will 

 be bigger than the state fair. ' ' Premium 

 lists and all necessary information may 

 be obtained by addressing the Four- 

 County Fair, Ogden, Utah. 



Danbxjry, Conn. — T. H. Judd and 

 his landscape gardener, William Butt, 

 have been doing extensive landscape 

 work on the grounds surrounding Mark 

 Twain's new villa in Redding. 



Sturgis, Mich. — Albert Richter says 

 trade this year has been fine, not at all 

 aflfected by the so-called panic. His place 

 was struck by hail May 16 and a large 

 part of the glass broken ; otherwise it has 

 been by far his most fortunate season. 



Jackson, Tenn. — T. L. Metcalfe, who 

 has his headquarters at Hopkinsville, 

 Ky., with greenhouses also at several 

 points in Kentucky and Tennessee, will 

 erect a greenhouse here. He has leased 

 the vacant Bond property, at the corner 

 of Baltimore and Church streets, and 

 will build a house 26x80. The oflice will 

 face on Baltimore street and will be of 

 brick and glass. Mr. Metcalfe has had 

 a branch oflice here for several months.
