STATE FLORISTS SOCIETY. 189 



Mr. Willianis: I move that this report be accepted and 

 referred to (he Hoard of Directors of this Horticultural 

 Hocietv to make a report on the same. Seconded by AV. A. 

 Harrison and carried. 



Mr. Harrison : There is nothing' to prevent this Society 

 from joining us, and we shall have a meeting before long and 

 there will be no trouble about that. 



Mr. Ed. Williams : The florists as a rule have not taken an 

 interest in the Horticultural Society, and iu this inst**nce a 

 few of us got together and thought the thing over and thought 

 in this manner: We could draw them together more and 

 work more harmoniously, still they could be members of the 

 State Horticultural Society, and the two societies could work 

 together. They have to be members of the State Horticul- 

 tural Societv before thev can become members of the Auxil- 

 iary Societ}'. 1 think they ought to be allowed to come into 

 the Auxiliary Societv first and then into the Horticultural 

 Society. 



President Green : This Florists Society is a part of the 

 Horticultural Society and is not a distinct body in any way. 

 The proposition of membership is first, to belong to the 

 Horticultural Society and then the Florists Society. 



President Green : I wish to announce that there will be 

 a meeting of the Board of Directors at the Delavan Hotel 

 tonight at 7 :30. I wish also to announce that the committee 

 on revision of the premium list is G. A. Marshall, W. A. 

 Harrison and Ed. Williams. 



Moved by Mr. Yager, seconded by Mr. Ed. Williams that 

 we adjourn to 9 o'clock tomorrow morning, and carried. 



Thursday, January 20th, 1910, 9 :00 a.m. Meeting called 

 to order by President Green, and Vice-President W. A. Har- 

 rison called to the chair.
