for. The date is Saturday, February 

 27, and the place Shanley's Boman ban- 

 quet hall, Forty-second stre^ and Broad- 

 way. Over a dozen tables have been 

 engaged and only twenty-seven tables 

 are available. Before another week there 

 will not be a seat left. W. J. Elliott 

 is chairman of the dinner committee, and 

 the program of music and speeches will 

 be worthy of the occasion. 



President Hallock's reception begins 

 at 6 p. m. There will be fine decorations. 

 One wholesale florist purchased twelve 

 seats, and many others have secured a 

 table of the plantsmen and wholesale and 

 retail interests. Professor Van Vleet's 

 famous orchestra will play all the popu- 

 lar melodies. It will be a popular dinner 

 and for the first time in twenty-two years 

 the ladies will grace the annual ban- 

 quet with their presence. If you intend 

 to go, better let Mr. Elliott or Sec- 

 retary Young know immediately. There 

 is quite a possibility of a crowd, and 

 the seats vdll be allotted as fast as the 

 money is received by the committee. 



The Geller Supply Co. says it will have 

 some fine Easter novelties, and it is al- 

 ready getting ready for the rush. Russin 



& Hanfling also are busy with fancy 

 Easter baskets, their own construction. 



Ford Bros, are proud of their daily 

 carnation exhibit. Just now quality is 

 at the topmost notch. "Couldn't be bet- 

 ter," the firm says, and Hession's grow- 

 ing ranks with the best. 



Ex-president Traendly was rejoicing 

 last week in the intellectual supremacy 

 of one of his daughters, who graduated 

 from her school with the highest honors, 

 though the youngest and smallest of all 

 competitors. 



Kessler Bros, have a fine plant exhibit 

 neatly arranged at their new store on 

 West Twenty-eighth street. 



Bickards Bros., who have not only at- 

 tended to their growing bulb trade, but 

 attended and sung at every dinner of 

 the horticultural societies within a ra- 

 dius of fifty miles this winter, say the 

 outlook for the spring trade was never 

 brighter. This seems to be the opinion 

 of every seed house in the city. With 

 an early spring there is no doubt the 

 coming season will surpass all its prede- 

 cessors in general prosperity. 



John Lewis Childs and Mrs. Childs, of 

 Floral Park, are enjoying a California 



trip that began this week and will con- 

 tinue until April. 



Harry Bunyard, with Arthur T. Bod- 

 dington, is expected back from his west- 

 em trip shortly, and as chairman of 

 the outing committee of the New York 

 Florists' Club has considerable summer 

 work cut out for him. Mr. Bunyard 

 has been asked to fill the position of 

 sergeant-at-arms at the club's dinner, 

 February 27. Miss S. A. Hill, of Rich- 

 mond, has been requested to attend and 

 respond to the toast of the gentlemen. 

 If duty prevents, some eastern lady will 

 tackle the question. 



The plantsmen are busy on Easter stock 

 and optimistic in preparation. Evident- 

 ly they anticipate a record demand. Much 

 sympathy is expressed for Mr. Dupuy in 

 Ms loss by fire by the other members 

 of the New York and New Jersey Plant 

 Growers ' Association.

Samuel A. Woodrow, wholesale plants- 

 man, 53 West Thirtieth street, who re- 

 sides in Hastings, N. Y., has filed a peti-
