The Flotists' Review 



BBrTKMBKK 24, 1914'. 



J' 



FBEDEBICK, MD. 



The lack of a public flower garden 

 in Frederick, Md., was the subject of 

 much comment at the reception tendered 

 by Frank C. Hargett, of this city, to a 

 number of florists, horticulturists and 

 prominent people of Frederick and the 

 surrounding country. _ The occasion was 

 the opening of a gar^n at his home. 

 For some time past Mr. Hargett has 

 been working on this scheme and with 

 the aid of a number of large growers, 

 who contributed a large proportion of 

 the plants and flowers on display, he 

 demonstrated what could be done along 

 this line under exceptional difficulties. 



The grounds were decorated with elec- 

 tric lights and in the center of a large 

 bed was an electric fountain. The dis- 

 plays were many; among the contribu- 

 tors were Peter Henderson & Co., New 

 York; Eichard Vincent, Jr., & Sons Co., 

 White Marsh, Md.; W. Atlee Burpee & 

 Co., Philadelphia; Conard & Jones Co., 

 West Grove, Pa.; Henry F. Michell Co., 

 Philadelphia; A. N. Pierson, Inc., Crom- 

 well, Conn.; Kobert Craig Co., Phila- 

 delphia; John Cook, Baltimore, Md.; 

 Gude Bros Co., Washington, D. C; 

 Henry Bester & Sons, Hagerstown, Md.; 

 Jesse P. King, Mt. Airy, Md.; David 

 Groflf, Frederick, Md.; George W. Hess, 

 superintendent United States Botanical 

 Gardens, and the Department of Agri- 

 culture. 



The opening addre.ss was made by 

 Hon. Milton O. Urner, who introduced 

 William F. Gude, as the master of cere- 

 monies. F. L. Mulford, of the Depart- 

 ment of Agriculture; George W. Hess; 

 Prof. Bert W. Anspon, in charge of the 

 floriculture and landscape gardening de- 

 partments of the Maryland Agricultural 

 College; Dr. Joseph H. Apple, president 

 of Hood College; Dr. C. T. Forester and 

 Prof. Sidney Stabler made addresses 

 during the evening. 



Those in the receiving party were Mr. 

 and Mrs. William F. Gude, Mr. and Mrs. 

 Richard Vincent, Jr., F. L. Mulford, 

 Geo. Hess, Dr. Stabler, Prof, and Mrs. 

 Sidney Stabler, Prof. Anspon, Jesse 

 King, Robert Creager, of Thurmont, 

 Md., and Harry Chapline.
