The I^lorists' Review 



Mahch 20, 1913. 



GREENWICH, CONN. 



The regular monthly meeting of the 

 Westchester and Fairfield Horticultural 

 Society was held in Doran's hall, March 

 14, with President Robert Williamson 

 in the chair. Great enthusiasm is dis- 

 played by the members and the attend- 

 ance maintained at the meetings is ex- 

 cellent, especially considering the long 

 journeys some of the members have to 

 make. Feelings of general regret were 

 expressed on account of the resigna- 

 tion of the vice-president, Oscar Addor, 

 who finds that he is not able to give 

 due attention to the office. By the 

 unanimous vote of the members, H. 

 Wild was elected vice-president for the 

 ensuing year. 



The best wishes of the society were 

 extended to James Aitchison, who is 

 about to take up his residence in an- 

 other locality. 



The speaker for the evening was 

 William Scott, of Scott Bros., Elms- 

 ford, N. Y., who delivered a thoroughly 

 practical address on the growing of 

 carnations. The fact that this meeting 

 had been set aside as carnation night 

 brought out a large number of fine ex- 

 hibits. The three prizes given by the 

 society were awarded as follows: First, 

 James Aitchison; second, A. L. Mar- 

 shall; third, E. Johnson. Excellent cul- 

 ture was also noted in the following 

 exhibits: 



A. L. Marshall, honorable mention for Neph- 

 rolepls magniflca. 



James Aitchison, cultural certificate for cycla- 

 men and Primula malacoides. 



A. Wynne, honorable mention for Scblzanthus 

 Wisetonensis. 



Alex. Geddes, honorable mention for carnation 

 seedling. 



Thos. Aitchison, cultural certificate for vase of 

 calla lilies. 



Geo. E. Baldwin Co., Mamaroneck, N. Y., 

 highly commended for finely flowered Cattleya 

 Lawrenceana. 



P. W. Popp, honorable mention for Carnation 

 California Giant and lily of the valley. 



Thos. Aitchison, honorable mention for seedling 

 amaryllis. 



Louis Wittman, honorable mention for My 

 Maryland and Madison roses. 



Thos. Ryan, vote of thanks for shamrocks, 

 "the genuine article." 



Professor Jarvis, of Yale, has prom- 

 ised to deliver an illustrated lecture on 

 "The Diseases of Fruit Trees" at the 

 next meeting, and it is hoped that 

 every member will make a special ef- 

 fort to be present, for this lecture 

 should prove of vital importance to all.
