ELBERON, N. J. 



The third annual rose and strawberry 

 show of the Elberon Horticultural So- 

 ciety was held June 17 and in point of 

 merit surpassed all previous efforts of 

 the society. All the members put great 

 effort in the work and the outside at- 

 tendance was past expectations. There 

 were twenty-two classes and all were 

 keenly competed for. The principal ex- 

 hibitors were James Kennedy, Joseph 

 Kennedy, James Seymour, Benj. Wyckoff, 

 Peter Ewen, Wm. Dowlen and Charles 

 De Wilde. Anthony Bauer was awarded 

 two certificates of merit and a certificate 

 for culture. Joseph Kennedy received 

 two certificates for culture, James Sey- 

 mour one, Chas. De Wilde three and 

 Peter Ewen three; these in addition to 

 the premiums each won in the regular 

 classes. . A. B.

Business has been good since Decora- 

 tion day. Carnations and roses are plen- 

 tiful, but are small and prices are low. 

 Outdoor flowers are plentiful. Funeral 

 work has been the chief item for the re- 

 tailers.
