A New Curved Eave 

 Greenhouse 



This is no experiment — only a new adaptation 

 of our tested Flat Iron Rafter construction. 

 The Curved Eave is strong — light — neat. An 

 every way practical house. 



Write us about it.

ROCKFORD, ILL. 



.John W. Ingalls & Co., who recently 

 lost their greenhouses on Corbin street 

 by fire, have purchased the Leonard Law- 

 son greenhouse property, at the corner 

 of Nintii avenue and Eleventh street. 



The fire which visited the Ingalls 

 greenhouses last fall completely demol- 

 ished the plant, and since then no ef- 

 fort has been made to rebuild at the 

 old site. The Ingalls company has been 

 keeping up its retail business, oc(!upy- 

 ing one of the store rooms in the Star 

 block. This uptown store will be main- 

 tained in the future. The property just 

 purchased is one of the best plants in 

 the citv. 



GLEN COVE, N. Y. 



Horticultural Society. 



The regular monthly meeting of the 

 Nassau County Horticultural Society was 

 held on Wednesday evening, April 14. 

 President Everett occupied the chair. 

 There was a good attendance, notwith- 

 standing the unpleasant weather. As 

 usual, the flowers, plants, etc., for ex- 

 hibition were of the best. 



The judges for the month were Messrs. 

 Mackenzie, Ingram and Holloway. 



The awards by points were as follows: 

 G. Wilson, Frau Karl Druschki roses, 93 

 points; Paul Eeul, antirrhinums, 86%; 

 Valentine Cleres, carnations, 86%; Henry 

 Gaup, culinary peas, 86; James Elmslie, 

 carnations, 81%. 



E. Fardell, (Jreat Neck, was awarded 

 a cultural certificate with Queen Alexan 

 dra stock. 



Julius Roehrs exhibited, for the first 

 time in America, Miltonia Bleuana no- 

 bilor, for which he was awarded a cer- 

 tificate of merit. 



A pan of Salvia Zurich, exhibited by 

 Paul Eeul, is also worthy of note. 



J. Ingram read a paper on orchids. 

 Mr. Ingram is an expert cattleya grower. 

 Previous to starting business as a land- 

 scape gardener, he had charge of an ex- 

 tensive private collection. His essay 

 contained many valuable hints on grow- 

 ing orchids, the best kinds to grow, their 

 insect pests, remedies, etc. Mr. Ingram 

 was accorded a unanimous vote of thanks 

 for his excellent paper. 



G. Wilson and E. Fardell told how 

 they grew their respective exhibits. 



Two new members were elected to ac- 

 tive membership, Mr. Barton, of Glen 

 Cove, and Peter Macleod, of Westburv.
