The Weekly Florists' Review.

WAPPINGEBS FAI*LS, N. Y. 



Dahlia Sbow. 



The annual dahlia show, held Septem- 

 ber 23 and 24 in Park hall, under the 

 auspices of the Falls Dahlia Society, 

 was a great success from every point 

 of view. Secretary N, Harold Gotham 

 was elated with its success, especially 

 in consideration of the dry season. The 

 interest taken by local exhibitors is 

 unabated. They staged a fine assort- 

 ment and excellent blooms. 



H. J. Allen, gardener to J. W. Van- 

 derbilt, was judge of cut flowers and 

 had no easy task. Henry Osterhoudt, 

 gardener to W. P. Clyde, is one of the 

 most active workers and the largest 

 exhibitor. 



W. W. Eawson, Mrs. Eoosevelt, Mme. 

 A. Lumiere, Marguerite Bouchon, Earl 

 of Pembroke and Miss A. Beck were 

 considered the finest in the several 

 classes. 



John C. Galvin had a magnificent 

 flaming scarlet cactus seedling, exhib- 

 ited the second year and a blue ribbon 

 winner. The stock has been sold to the 

 r, R. Pierson Co. 



The class calling for dinner table 

 decorations brought out three entries, 

 a lady in each case securing a prize. 

 The tables were quite artistic without 

 any attempt at elaboration. 



James Keeley, gardener to Austin L. 

 Sands, had a fine display of mushrooms. 



The prizes for asters, oflPered by the 

 Yuess Gardens Co., of Newburgh, 

 brought out strong competition, Mrs. 

 John Parkman and Robt. E. Coons 

 being winners of first prizes in each 

 entry. 



Alex. A. Laub was first in the entry 

 for brides' bouquets. 



There were several entries of herba- 

 ceous plants. Henry Osterhoudt had 

 nearly 100 varieties, all correctly la- 

 beled. 



It was agreed by several visitors, 

 who had seen both dahlia shows re- 

 cently held in New York and Boston, 

 that for general arrangement in staging 

 and variety and general quality of 

 blooms, this show reflected great credit 

 on all concerned. M. 



Terre Haute, Ind. — Mr. and Mrs. 

 John G. Heinl and their son, Fred G. 

 Heinl, with the latter 's wife and 

 daughter, have been making a two 

 weeks' automobile trip through Ohio.
