ST. LOUIS. 



Club Meeting. 



The regular uiontlily meeting of the 

 Worists' Club was held on Thursday aft- 

 ernoon, August 1, at 3 p. m. The at- 

 tendance was very small, owing perhaps 

 to the very hot weather. President Guy 

 not being able to attend, Vice-President 

 Juengel opened the meeting promptly at 

 3 o'clock. The reports, of the different 

 committees were read and accepted. The 

 election of officers then took place, and 

 the following members were elected: F. 

 J Meinhardt, president; Frank M. tills, 

 vice-president; E. Schray, secretary, and 

 J. J. Beneke, treasurer. The three 

 trustees elected were: R. J. Mohr, F. J. 

 Ammann and E. W. Guy. The secre- 

 tary's report showed that the average 

 attendance during the last year was fif- 

 teen. The club had fifty members at the 

 beginning of the year, and fifty are still 

 members at the close of the year. Twelve 

 essays were read during the year, which 

 is considered good, and the members 

 hope that the same number, or more, will 

 be read the coming year. 



The next meeting of the club will be 

 held Thursday, September 12, at 3 

 o'clock, and we hope to see a large at- 

 tendance, as at this meeting will be re- 

 lated the experiences of the difterent 

 members while on their Buffalo trip. 



The Market. 

 Trade in cut flowers is unusually quiet 

 here even for this time of the year ; local 

 demand is very irregular, and is confined 

 to funeral work; cut flowers of all kinds 

 are very scarce, and one can hardly take 

 in a good-sized order for fear of not get- 

 ting the stock. All around us the hearts 

 of the people have been gladdened with 

 good rains, but not a drop for poor old 

 St. Louis, and outdoor stuflf is suffering 

 badly for the want of moisture. 



Notes. 



We are making preparations to leave 

 this hot town for Buffalo, the convention 

 city, and by the time this issue is in the 

 hands of our readers we will be enjoying 

 ourselves with our friends "^illy" Scott 

 and "Billy" Kasting and the rest of the 

 Buffalo florists ; so look out for us, we are 

 coming twenty strong, and we will be 

 ready to take everything in sight— that 

 is, in bowling prizes. 



Will Young and wife returned from a 

 short stay at Atlantic City. Their sud- 

 den return was owing to the death of 

 Mrs. Young's brother. 



From a letter received from Max Her- 

 zog, who is abroad with his wife, we 

 learn that they are having a very pleas- 

 ant time and will have lots of news to 

 report on their return home next month. 



Mrs. M. M. Ayres was on last Friday 

 very much overworked with funeral 

 work; your correspondent was called 

 upon to help out, and I think it was the 

 largest order for one funeral ever put up 

 in this city, and the work was all very 

 fine. J- J- B. 



N. Y.— The Dutchess 

 County Horticultural Society will hold
