General View with Anton Scholtheis' Rose Plants in tlie Center Group. 



Dinner to the Judges. 



The dinner to the judges of the 

 flower show Saturday evening, March 

 21, was most enjoyable. Over fifty 

 were present. The Vanderbilt hotel 

 was the place of entertainment and 

 among those present were George 

 Asmus, August Poehlmann, E. Vincent, 

 Jr., W. F. Kasting, J. J. Hess, John 

 Champion, Wm. Falconer, Robert Cam- 

 eron, J. F. Hubs, W. H. Loveless, A. E. 

 Thatcher, Edward Kirk, George Bur- 

 ton and the officers of the New York 

 Horticultural Society and the New York 

 Florists' Club. 



The Trade Exhibits. 



The trade exhibits are an important 

 feature of the show, especially so as 

 the money received from the sale of 

 space is relied on to meet the premi- 

 ums in the competitive classes. Many 

 of the so-called trade exhibits are not 

 really trade exhibits, as they are not 

 planned to interest the trade, but pri- 

 marily to advertise the exhibitor to 

 the general public, and incidentally to 

 the trade. Most of the trade exhibits 

 therefore have been staged in extreme- 

 ly attractive style. Most of them are 

 on the second floor, with the ladies' 

 orchestra to help make things lively 

 for them. Among the exhibitors are: 



Alphano Humus Co., New York, a 

 large exhibit of humus, with fine illus- 

 trations showing results.
