Club Meeting. 



The regvilai- meeting of the State 

 Florists' Society was held at the store 

 of Huntington & Page. The president 

 and vice-president lieing ahsent, Mr. 

 Langstaff acted as chairman. Mr. E. 

 A. Nelson read a paper on rose culture, 

 which was well received. As the next 

 meeting will be the state meeting, it 

 will be held at the State House, and it 

 was proposed to entertain the state 

 florists at that time, and the following 

 committee was appointed to make ar- 

 rangements for the occasion: Robert 

 McKeand, J. T. Huntington. Fred. 

 Hukriede. The meeting was well at- 

 tended and we all hope that the good 

 attendance will be kept up. 



H. W. Rieman showed some seedling 

 carnations and a mum, a sport from 

 Rieman. It is a yellow, on the style of 

 Viviand-Morel. 



Cincinnati Florists' Visit. 



A crowd of Cincinnati boys came 

 over the other day — well, it was on the 

 13th, and there were just 13 of them; 

 but notwithstanding all this, a luckier 

 and happier lot of fellows were never 

 entertained by the Indianapolis boys. 

 They were met at the depot at 6:10' p. 

 m., coming here from Lafayette, where 

 they had been to visit Mr. Dorner. It 

 was 8 o'clock when we reached the 

 Walla Halla, and, of course, liowling 

 was on the programme, and the way 

 those Cincinnati hoys bowled was a 

 sight. It seems as though they had 

 been looking for a snap and they cer- 

 tainly struck one, for they captured 

 all the team and individual prizes. Mr. 

 Jackson was the luckiest, he being the 

 high man with 176 in a ten-frame and 

 102 in five frames. 



Following is the score of the prize 

 game;

 was also one of our guests. 



At the conclusion Mr. Gillett made 

 a neat speech, in which he thanked 

 the liKlianapolis florists for their kind 

 bos))ilality.

PORTCHESTER, N. Y. 



The annual dinner of the Westches- 

 ter County Gardeners' Association was 

 given at the Irving hotel, Portchester, 

 December 16. Some forty members 

 and friends sat down to enjoy the 

 good things provided. President John 

 Shore presided, and when the demi- 

 tasse and cigars came, toasts, stories, 

 songs and speeches were in order. Sec- 

 retary Jenkins read letters of regret 

 from some of those invited from dis- 

 tant points. Among these was one 

 from Alfred Dimmock, who was by 

 that time, to use his own words, 

 drinking their health in his stateroom 

 on the Lucania, which sailed that day 

 for Kngland. 



Delegations were present from all 

 the surrounding towns. The party 

 from Tarrytown brought an invitation 

 to the society to dine with them at 

 their first annual dinner, which will 

 be held in the Vanderbilt building, 

 Tarrytown, December 2sth. Mr. J. W. 

 Withers and J. I. Donlan, of New York 

 city, made short addresses on "Horti- 

 culture" and the "Horticultural 

 Press." The affair was a most happy 

 one and was thoroughly enjoyed Ijy 

 all present. D.
