INDIANAPOLIS, IND. 



At the last meeting of the State Flor- 

 i-sts' Association the principal business 

 was in connection with the coming car- 

 nation convention. All the committees 

 made favorable reports and everything is 

 working out nicely. Estimates of what 

 each committee will need in the line of 

 finances were made and it was found 

 that the finance committee had raked up 

 a sufficient number of the almighty dol- 

 lars to meet all the demands, which was 

 very gratifying indeed. 



Now we hope for a week of good 

 weather, a large attendance and a large 

 number of exhibits to make this the 

 record convention in the history of the 

 society. A. B.
