only one view to take of the coming 

 season, and that is an optimistic one. 

 The seedsmen are all head over heels 

 in rushing the fall shipments and are 

 making heavy bookings for spring de- 

 livery, and the nurserymen in this 

 vicinity are digging and shipping as 

 fast as they can, night and day.

OBANQE, N. J. 



That the present season has been a 

 poor one for the growing of dahlias was 

 evidenced at the annual dahlia show of 

 the New Jersey Floricultural Society, 

 held in its hall at 240 Main street, this 

 city. There were entries in but thir- 

 teen of the thirty-four classes, but the 

 show was a striking one, nevertheless. 



Among the exhibits of special in^ 

 terest to the trade were those of Lager 

 & Hurrell, who received a first-class 

 certificate for a collection of orchids 

 and an award of 94 points on an orchid 

 plant. 



First-class certificates were also 

 awarded to Joseph A. Manda, of West 

 Orange, for a collection of orchids, and 

 to William Tricker, of Arlington, for a 

 collection of roses. Mr. Tricker also 

 secured a certificate of merit for Acon- 

 itum Fischeri. 



The society's annual chrysanthemum 

 show will be held on Friday evening, 

 November 10. 



Emaus, Pa. — D. B. Kroninger will 

 discontinue raising tomatoes and de- 

 vote all his attention in the future 

 to producing high grade flowers. 



Allentown, Pa. — E. N, Kroninger is 

 planning another range of Lord & Burn- 

 ham houses to be added to the fine plant 

 recently built. Ernest Ashley will re- 

 move to his new place after the spring 

 rush is over. Already the land has 

 trebled in value and he is undecided 

 whether to build. more glass or hold it 

 as a real estate investment.
