The sixth annual exhibition of the
Morris County Gardners' and Florists
Society, which was held in the Assem-
bly, rooms, Madison. on TUESDAY and
Wednesday, was undoubtedly the most
successful ever held by the Society.
The rooms we're beautifully de-
corated with ferns of almost every
description and size, while the dis
play of roses was also very complete,
forming beautiful background for
the extensive display of chrysanthe-
NUNS. The orchids embraced some of
the most valuable varie ties, including
beautiful white one, which recently
won the first prize at the show in
Madison Square Garden. It was evil
dent from the graceful and harmon
ious manner in which the exhibits
were placed that experienced persons
had the matter in charge.
The display of vegetables was also
worthy of attention, although it
seemed very tame beside the floral
exhibit. The Monogram Company
of Chatham made display of magni-
ficent mushrooms which fairly made
ones mouth water. A noteworthy
feature Of the show was vase of fine
cosmus by Louis A Thebaud, of Morris
Plains, which while nos entered for
competition won a special prize. The
