Qub Meeting. 



The Richmond Florists' Club held its 

 January meeting at the greenhouses of 

 its president, George E. Gause. After 

 routine business Fred H. Lemon read an 

 excellent paper, discussing the drawbacks 

 to successful carnation growing, together 

 with experiments with different fertiliz- 

 ers and the results obtained therefrom. 

 The paper and the discussion which fol- 

 lowed, participated in by all the mem- 

 bers of the club, proved both interesting 

 and instructive and could not help but 

 be of material benefit to all. Mr. Lemon 

 appointed L. H. Schepman to prepare a 

 paper for the February meeting and as 

 each one is allowed to select his own sub- 

 ject, a large variety of topics will no 

 doubt be the result. 



Various Notes. 



John A. Evans, not to be behind the 

 rest of the boys, has come to the front 

 with another fine son. All well. 



The February meeting of the club will 

 be held at the Grave greenhouses west 

 of the city. 



At the close of the meeting at Gause 's, 

 several waiters appeared with hot coffee, 

 sandwiches and fruit, and the way it 

 disappeared showed that the members of 

 the club had their appetites with them. 



H. C. C. 



KANSAS CITY. 



Florists have been very busy and 

 stock the scarcest that I have ever seen 

 it. Everybody had funeral work the 

 early part of the week. Bride and Gol- 

 den Gate roses were not to be had at 

 any price and everybody was looking 

 for them. Maid and Sunrise are our 

 only stock in roses. Beauties are off 

 crop here. Carnations are as scarce as 

 they were after the holidays. Lilies, tu- 

 lips and other bulbous stock is coming in 

 more plentifully and is a great help. 



Every florist in tovm reports the big- 

 gest Valentine business ever known in 

 red carnations and violets, and stock was 

 not near enough to go around. 



Arnold Eingier, of Barnard 's, was in 

 town and seemed to be doing a big busi- 

 ness with everybody. L. M. S.
