Over 42,000 roses in all are planted in ? this mammoth range of glass and 25,000 chrysanthemums of fine commercial size, embracing all the standard varieties and new roses of merit were a source of delight to the visitors. After an enjoy- able lunch Robt. Klagge's place near by was visited, where Lawson carnation and violets were seen in grand condition. A visit was also made to John Carey's place, where skillful work was evident. Jas. Taylor was visited before the return and the excellent condition of his plants easily bore out his reputation as a most successful violet grower. On a recent Monday evening sixteen of the club boys were the guests of Jno. E. Smith, of Wyandotte. He took them all to the Commercial Hotel at Trenton, a few miles below his place, where a ban- quet was served, a mandolin orchestra adding charms to the occasion. Geo. A.
