Various Notes. 



Already the following New Yorkers 

 have shown practical interest in the S. 

 A. F. trade exhibition and to date space 

 has been secured by J. A. Payne, Bob- 

 bink & Atkins, Arthur T. Boddington, 

 J. Lewis Childs, W. A. Manda, F. O. 

 Pierce Co., F. E. Pierson Co., Eeed & 

 Keller, Schloss Bros., Traendly & 

 Schenck, Weathered Co., and Wertheimer 

 Bros., and still there are more to follow. 

 The prospects now are for the biggest 

 crowd New York has ever sent to the 

 society's convention. 



Central Park's impoverished soil de- 

 mands an outlay, according to experts, 

 of $2,000,000 to cover the exhausted sec- 

 tions with top soil six inches deep. This 

 season the value of proper soil has been 

 demonstrated in the splendid planting 

 of 18,000 rhododendrons through the 

 generosity of Mrs. Eussell Sage. The re- 

 sults are a practical illustration that will 

 have far-reaching effects, and the suc- 

 cess of the planting has drawn multi- 

 tudes of interested citizens. 



On Sunday, July 19, George Cotsonas, 

 of 50 West Twenty-eighth street, and 

 Miss Margaret Luckert, of New York, 

 were married at Vienna hall. Fifty-ninth 

 street. They will spend their honeymoon 

 in Connecticut. Mr. Cotsonas was born 

 thirty-three years ago, near classic Ath- 

 ens, and has been twelve years in this 

 country, six years of that iime in the 

 wholesale evergreen business. He has 

 built up a fine trade. The hall was 

 nicely decorated for the ceremony and 

 several hundred guests and friends were 

 present at the wedding supper. 



Charles H. Totty and wife have de- 

 cided to spend their vacation in England 

 and on the continent and will sail on 

 the Carmania Saturday, July 25. They 

 will not return before the middle of Sep- 

 tember. 



Last week, W. Gommersall, of W. 

 Nyack, sailed on the steamer Cedric for 

 England and a summer amid old asso- 

 ciations, his first visit to the old country 

 in twenty years. 



Phil Kessler is enjoying his vacation 

 in New England. 



B, J. Slinn, Jr., arrived home Friday, 

 July 17, after a delightful two months' 

 visit to the principal cities of England, 

 France, Germany, Austria and Switzer- 

 land. His collection of views is most 

 interesting and his stories of travel will 

 last long after the violet season opens. 



Mrs. Manda, of West Orange, passed 

 away last week after a long and painful 

 illness, borne with great patience and 

 fortitude. Her children have the sincere 

 sympathy of the trade in their bereave- 

 ment. She may well be remembered as 

 the mother of florists, her sons having 

 achieved varied and unique success in 

 the horticultural world. 



The second annual outing of the 

 Greek- American Florists ' Association was 

 a great success. Over 500 tickets were 

 sold and 350 happy excursionists at- 

 tended. Great enthusiasm characterized 

 the different struggles for supremacy, the 

 discus throwing, weight throwing and 

 races especially engaging the largest 

 number of competitors. The ball game 

 between New York and Greece ended in 

 the triumph of America. Messrs. Foley 

 and Egenbrod were the skilled exponents 

 ot the American game. Mrs. N. Christa- 

 tos was the fleetest of the married ladies.
