 Horticultural Society was held in Hor- 

 ticultural hall, Broad street below Lo- 

 cust, on Tuesday, September 20, from 3 

 to 10 p. m. Some good stock was con- 

 tributed. 



M. Henry Lynch, vice president of 

 Bingee k Conard Co., reports their im- 

 mense rose range in exceptionally fine 

 condition. 



Charles Gray commenced work Sep- 

 tember 19 with J. .1. Habermchl 's Sons, 

 as buyer for the Bellevue-Stratford 

 store. It is rumored that Henry Bauer 

 and Raymond Kester will give him a 

 dinner.' 



Lloyd G. Blick, of Norfolk, Va., with 

 his daughter and two friends, were 

 guests of Edward Reid last week. Mr. 

 Blick 's party were on a motoring trip 

 that includes Atlantic City. New York 

 and New England. They expect to re- 

 turn to Norfolk from Buffalo.

 dahlia show at "Ten-eighteen " Sep- 

 tember 27 and the following day. Prizes 

 will be offered for the private garden- 

 ers. Entries of choice stock are desired. 



William Swayne, of Kennett, Pa., is 

 sending the first pansies, yellow daisies 

 and snaps seen this season to William 

 J. Baker. 



W^arren Engard commenced work at 

 the Century Flower Shop September 19. 



Samuel F. Lilley is receiving early 

 shipments of single violets. 



Stem-rot has played serious havoc 

 with the carnations in many sections of 

 the country; the cause is generally be- 

 lieved to be excessive heat and moisture 

 at the critical stage preceding trans- 

 planting into the houses. The losses 

 are so serious as to create a noticeable 

 demand for SAveet pea seed to fill space. 



M. Rice & Co. report the following 

 visitors: B. Hobbs and Mrs. Hobbs, on 

 their honeymoon from Richmond, Va.; 

 .Tohn Ratcliffe, of Ratcliffe & Tanner, 

 Richmond. Va.; G. P. Weahlcn, of G. P. 

 Wcahlen & Co. and formerly of Ran- 

 dolph & McClements. East Liberty, Pa.;

 AVeir, Wilkes-Barre, Pa.

 culture. Phil. 



NEW YORK. 



Census Count Is 4,766,883. 



The tide is turning and another week 

 will see the long anticipated change for 

 the better. Society is fast returning to 

 the city from the summer resorts, and 

 there are many weddings now, and 

 many more booked for October. So the 

 day of the optimist has arrived, even if 

 the wholesale rates have not yet shown 

 much evidence of strength. This is 

 dahlia week in New Y'ork, and the three 

 days' exhibition at the American Insti- 

 tute will be the finest the dahlia has 

 ever shown. The entries are numerous, 

 and the balance of the exhibit, in plant
