Club Meeting. 



The regular meeting of the Garden- 

 ers' and Florists' Ass'n was held in 

 St. George's Hall on Feb. 21. The meet- 

 ing was an open one. the room was 

 crowded, the night being advertised 

 for a carnation exhibition. Messrs. 

 IMiller & Son exhibited 60 varieties of 

 seedlings: J. H. Dunlop 24 standard 

 and newer varieties; H. Dale. Bramp- 

 ton, standard and newer varieties; 

 Geo. HoUis. seedlings; Geo. Mills, 3 

 seedlings; C. W. Ward, Queens, N. Y., 

 new varieties; F. Dorner & Sons Co., 

 La Fayette, Indiana, large vase of G. 

 H. Crane, which arrived very late in 

 the evening, but was very much ad- 

 mired. 



The president appointed as judges 

 of the exhibits; Messrs. H. Dale, 'W. 

 Jay. W. Muston. C. E. Buxon and "W. 

 J. Lawrence. 



Mr. George Hollis read a very prac- 

 tical and seasonable essay on the car- 

 nation, which was listened to very at- 

 tentively, Mr. Hollis being looked upon 

 as an authority on raising seedling 

 carnations. The late hour did not per- 

 mit a very lengthy discussion. 



. Notes. 



Inquiry .of the retailers (by tele- 

 phonej shows nothing doing; every- 

 thing quiet. One says, "If ever a 

 florist is tempted to marry let him 

 choose Lent to do the deed. He will 

 have lots of time and plenty of flowers 

 to spare for the occasion (ring off)." 

 The weather last week was very 

 balmy; some little rain. 



There is an exhibit of orchids ad- 

 vertised for the 7th of March by the 

 Horticultural Society. E. H. C.
