made an eloquent speech, considering his 

 hay fever, on the convention, and thanked 

 the committee and the club for its loyal 

 devotion. Mr. O'Mara said it was the 

 best convention the society had ever en- 

 joyed. As to bowling, Joseph Manda ex- 

 plained why the first prize did not come 

 to New York, giving credit to those who 

 kept their nerve and so nearly won the 

 highest honors. 



Charles H. Totty, just back from Eng- 

 land, gave an irteresting account of his 

 travels.

 nominating committee, Messrs. Sheridan, 

 W. Eickards, Traendly, Burnham, Miller, 

 Donaldson and Totty. 



Various Notes. 



These are the days of horticultural 

 fairs and the Saengerbund in Brooklyn, 

 and the Richmond company show on 

 Staten Island last week beat all records 

 for attendance and display. Bobbink & 

 Atkins, Stumpp & Walter Co., and J. L. 

 •Childs were much in e%'idence. Harry 

 Bunyard is visiting his parents in Eng- 

 land, with his wife, the first visit since 

 he came to this country. Meantime Mr. 

 Boddington and his force are working 

 nights, and the fall rush is on in earnest. 

 The seedsmen and the bulb men are all 

 busy and say the outlook was never 

 better. 



The clam bake^of the New York and 

 New Jersey Association of Plant Growers, 

 September 15, was a great success. Fully 

 100 were present and Chairman Miller's 

 management caused everything to pass 

 oflf most pleasantly. There were a num- 

 ber of special events on the program for 

 which prizes were offered, and dancing 

 was continued until a late hour. 



The Horticultural Society of New York 

 completed arrangements last week for a 

 flower show at the Museum of Natural 

 History, Columbus avenue and Seventy- 

 ninth street, November 17 to 19. With 

 the interest taken in this exhibition by 

 the New York Florists' Club, and the 

 splendid building and locality chosen, 

 an old-time success may once more be 

 possible. 



The Cleary Horticultural Co. will have 

 its first auction September 22. Am- 

 brose Cleary gives aa interesting account

 time to Covent Garden, the Kew Gar-

 trip to the old home of his parents in 

 Ireland was a great delight to him. Mr.
