Horticultural Society Show. 



The annual September exhibition of 

 the Rhode Island Horticultural Society, 

 held last week in the Mathewson Street 

 church parlors, was one of the finest 

 held in several years. Two especially 

 noticeable features were a collection of 

 decorative plants from the Willialn Ap- 

 pleton greenhouses and the vegetable 

 display from the estate of Senator R. 

 Livingston Beeckman, of Newport. 



New dahlias were shown by H. V. 

 Mayo and Arthur Sellew. The for- 

 mer's was a hybrid cactus dahlia, orange 

 pink, called the Ethel Mayo, in honor 

 of Mrs. Mayo. Mr. Sellew showed a 

 new seedling dahlia, yellow base, shad- 

 ing to scarlet, named in honor of Mrs. 

 Sellew; and a decorative dahlia, color 

 of Geisha, which is to be known as Fire 

 King. 



Prizes were awarded on dahlias in the 

 commercial growers' and professional 

 gardeners' classes to Sisson & Thurston, 

 W, D. Hathaway and W. F. Hall, and 

 for the collection of 100 named varie- 

 ties Lewis A. Jillson was awarded first 

 prize, William Steel second, and George 

 H. Walker was highly commended. Spe- 

 cial prize of bronze plaque went to 

 A. E. Johnson for exhibit of fifty varie- 

 ties. 



Various Notes. 



Thomas Kennedy, of Pascoag, re- 

 turned recently from a two weeks' mo- 

 torcycle trip through the White moun- 

 tains, having had an enjoyable vaca- 

 tion. . . 



Leo Engel was a recent business visi- 

 tor in Philadelphia. 



William Doel, of Pascoag, has fin- 

 ished the foundations for a large addi- 

 tion to his greenhouses. In this addi- 

 tion he is installing a new steam heater, 

 which will be used as an auxiliary to 

 the hot water heater in the coldest 

 weather. The new section will be espe- 

 cially for carnations. 



Cedric Pearson, of Crompton, who was 

 seriously burned while cleaning his mo- 

 torcycle at the Quidnick Greenhouses a 

 short time ago, having to be removed to 

 the hospital, is convalescing. 



Bernard J. Farrell, with W. E. Bar- 

 rett Co., has been on a vacation trip to 

 New York, Jersey City and vicinity. 



George L. Stillman, of Westerly, bad 

 a fine display of show, pompon, cactus 

 and single dahlias at the North Ston- 

 ington fair last week. W. H. M.

Flower Show. 



Cold weather prevailed all through 

 the week in which the Northeastern 

 Michigan Association held its fair at 

 Bay City. This, in some measure, had 

 an effect on the attendance, but the 

 florists had large displays. Boehringer 

 Bros, carried off the most prizes, while 

 J. B. Ooetz Sons and the Wm. Roethke 

 Floral Co. were tied for the second 

 place. The displays were by far the 

 best held at any flower show in the 

 state. This is probably saying a good 

 deal, but it shows what cooperation will 

 do. The members of the Saginaw-Bay 

 City Floricultural Society pledged them- 

 selves to take care of the floral exhibit, 

 which they did in a most creditable 

 manner.
