The regular monthly meeting- of the New Jersey Horticultural Society was held on April 8, when Geo, Smith ad- dressed the society upon "The Florist Versus the Private Gardener," Mr. Smith described the importance of the gardener to the community, engaged as he was in producing what was next to God's greatest creation. The speaker seemed to think that a gardener might become a florist, yet the last seldom became a good gardener. In the floral display, Lager & Hurrell staged a col- lection of cattleyas, dendrobiums, mlltonias and phalaenopsis of extraor- dinary beauty and fine contrasting color. Of chief note among these was a Dendrobium nobile of the Ashworth variety, which is a pure white, and was exhibited for the first time in this country. Thomas Jones, of Summit, contributed a vase of wallflowers. A letter from Hitchings & Co., offering a fine silver cup was read. It was de- cided to offer this at the dahlia show in October. The contest for 13 silver cups brought out a large display of carnations, some roses and other flow- ers. The judges for the evening were John Hayes and Edward Eccles. J. B. D. Maximum __. _ _.
