NEW OBLEANS. 



Claude L. Ory, the new president of 

 the New Orleans Horticultural Society, 

 is a native of this city, a stepson of the 

 late H. Menard, who was one of the 

 local pioneers among florists. At pres- 

 ent he is mans^ger of the estate, a wide- 

 awake, hustling business man, well 

 liked by his colleagues and by all who 

 come in contact with him. 



Miss Katie Eehm, one of our best 

 floral artists, accompanied by her 

 nieces, the Misses Maitre, Florella and 

 Nola Virgin, left recently for a month 's 

 stay at Asheville, N. C. 



C. W. Eichling left the city July 20 

 for a month's stay in one of the moun- 

 tain resorts near Asheville, N, C. 



Richard Steckler and family, accom- 

 panie(P by Miss Edna Steckler, eldest 

 daughter of Joseph Steckler, have re- 

 turned from an extensive business and 

 pleasure trip to Milwaukee, Chicago, 

 New York and Philadelphia. 



A visit by the writer to the immense 

 grounds of the Metairie Eidge Nursery- 

 proved to be a highly interesting one. 

 Under the personal guidance of the 

 president of the company, Harry Pap- 

 worth, the newly planted rose houses 

 were first visited. The large stock, 

 comprising the best standard varieties, 

 is in a perfect condition. Several hun- 

 dred novelties are planted for trial. 

 Harry Dressel, the grower, deserves 

 much credit for his skill and arduous 

 work. Next came several houses of 

 chrysanthemums, among which was a 

 new collection from E. D. Smith, of 

 Adrian, Mich. Finer stock would be 

 hard to find in this section. A large 

 lot of poinsettia cuttings was newly 

 potted, and several thousand cuttings 

 of various shrubs were rooting. Palms, 

 ferns, crotons and other foliage plants 

 are in a fine condition. The same can 

 be said of the entire outdoor stock, such 

 as roses, shrubbery, trees, etc. Several 

 thousand oranges, grafted lately on Cit- 

 rus trifoliata, are doing finely. Several 

 large beds were planted with Lilium 

 Harrisii and L. giganteum for outdoor 

 cultivation, and there is no doubt that 

 good results will follow, because it has 

 been proven of late that both varieties 

 acclimatize here without failure. 



E. E. 



Crescent City, Fla. — Charles Schubert, 

 of Tennessee, has purchased property 

 in the Crescent Hill addition and will 

 grow roses there, for the home market 

 and for shipment to his partner in 

 Tennessee.
