DAHLIA SOCIETY OF 
NEW JERSEY 
The Dahlia Society of New Jersey and the New 
Jersey Gladiolus Society held a very creditable dis¬ 
play in New Brunswick last fall under the auspices of 
the New Brunswick Garden Club in the Gymnasium 
of Rutgers University, a very fine place to exhibit. 
The show was staged and very ably managed by Dr. 
C. H. Connors. Although it was a little early for 
quantity of blooms the quality was very good. You 
will note our winnings of Commercial Displays on 
Page 35. 
Each member of our State Society receives the A. 
D. S. Bulletin as the official publ ication. Miss Virginia 
Stout, Membership Chairman, of Short Hills, N. J„ or 
Miss Frances Hornfeck, Secretary, of 85 Lakeside

further information, or send dues of $2.00 to the
