HT. KISCO, N T. 



The buiquet of the North West- 

 chester Horticultural Soeietj at Castle 

 Inn, Mt. Kisco, January 18, was a great 

 success. The society numbers about 

 sixty members and covers the ground 

 from Katonah to Chappaqua, includ- 

 ing almost every gardener of promi- 

 nence im that section. H. Spavins, the 

 florist at Mt. Kisco, was its secretary 

 for twelve years, and carries a fine gold 

 watch as evidence of tte society's 

 appreciation. M. J. O'Brien, manager 

 of the Harriman estate, is the present 

 secretary; George Andrews, president; 

 G. Ganun, treasurer, and F. Kirkman, 

 corresponding secretary. The hotel was 

 nicely decorated for the banquet by 

 Messrs. Andrews, Thomson and Wills. 

 Messrs. Maynard, Bickards, Kennedy, 

 Burnett and MeTaggert were the new 

 York visitors, and all gave interesting 

 addresses. Masters William and 

 Eobert Burnett, of New York, gave 

 many solos on the piano and violin, and 

 Messrs. Loy and Gififord, of Weehaw- 

 ken, furnished the vocal entertainment, 

 their popular songs being especially ap- 

 preciated. J. A. Shaw was toastmaster.

FBEEPOST, lUt. 



On visiting this city, I was gratified 

 to hear that our brother florist, John 

 Bauscher, Jr., who is one of the county 

 supervisors and has personal charge of 

 the money intended for distribution 

 among the destitute, has so ably man- 

 aged the funds intrusted to him that, 

 for the first time in fifty years, it is 

 not necessary for the county to resort 

 to a special tax levy to take care of the 

 needy. The money at his command has 

 been adequate in spite of the fact that 

 he has had a standing announcement in 

 the local papers, stating that he may be 

 found at his place of business whenever 

 his aid is wanted in the relief of the 

 poor. 



A visit to Mr. Bauscher 's green- 

 houses found everything in first-class 

 shape. He grows 38,000 carnation 

 plants, principally of such varieties as 

 Beacon and the different shades of En- 

 chantress. In novelties he has White 

 Wonder, Washington and Princess 

 Charming. In roses he grows American 

 Beauty, Killarney, White Killamey, 

 Bride, Maid, Uncle John, Rhea Eeid, 

 Chatenay and Richmond. His trade 

 last Christmas, he says, was the best in 

 his experience. A. F. L.
