INDIANAPOLIS, IND. 



The State FlDiisN' As-cji-ialioii held it^ 

 February nieetius; on Feb. ;{ with a 

 very good attendance. The new presi- 

 dent, Fred Doriier. .Ji., after beino 

 duly installed, took the ohair. The prin° 

 cipal subject for discussion was the fall 

 flower show. After evervl«)<ly had his 

 say, it was decided to ^ive the whole 



project over into the hands of the mer- 

 chants to run. Tliese oentlemen have se- 

 lected Mr. Irving Bertermann as secre- 

 tary and .John Bertermann as superin- 

 tendent of exhibition. Xext year we 

 hope to have a giant coliseum in this 

 city, and it is planned to open it with ft 

 flower show. 



Jlr. John Berteiniann entertained 

 Messrs. E. G. Hill. Fred Dorner, J. A. 

 E. Haugh, .John Hartje. F. .lunge, A. F. 

 .1. Baur, E. A. Xelson. Irving Berter- 

 mann and H. W. Rieman at dinner on 

 Feb. .3, and these gentlemen arranged a 

 fine premium list for the fall show. The 

 premiums are much larger and the class- 

 es have been changed considerably to 

 meet the new demands of an up-to-date 

 exhibition. These premiums are fully 

 guaranteed by the merchants. The ad- 

 vance list will l>e out in a few da.vs. 



Owing to the bad weather during near- 

 ly the entire winter high grade carna- 

 tions are rather scarce and not a great 

 many will find their way to Brooklyn. 

 Only one florist from this ci.y is to at- 

 tend, and Jlr. Baur has oeen looking all 

 around for some one to make the trip 

 with him. 



All are very busy these days with 

 decorating and funeral work and all 

 good stock finds reaily sale. Eoses es- 

 jiecially seem off crop all around and 

 goml (mes are reported scarce. Carna- 

 tions are s«me l>etter. A. B. 



CHATHAM, N.J. 



The Chatham growers held their usual 

 meeting on Saturday night, Jan. 24. A 

 committee on automobiles made an in- 

 teresting report. The parties who do the 

 shipping to New York were present and 

 stated their experiences and successes. 

 Three weeks have passed since wagons 

 have been in use and only one Cliatham 

 grower now ships by railroad. Although 

 admittedly a more expensive method 

 than by rail, the wagons have saved this 

 town already many dollars in express 

 charges. Another saving is a more sig- 

 nificant one: viz., the boxes are not 

 smashed. That item alone is worth the 

 change. To this advantage is added the 

 contentment that comes from having one's 

 flowers on the agents' tables early in the 

 morning, the moment their places are 

 ready for business. Altogether, the feel- 

 ing at the meeting was one of satisfac- 

 tion. Summit growers are also using 

 the wagon express, and it is a surprise 

 that Madison, our big neighbor on the 

 other side, is not yet doing likewise. 

 Visitor in town: Mr. T. W. Lydecker, 

 of Englewood, N. J., on express business. 



M. 



BUFFALO. 



Very sorry. Mr. Editor, that my notes 

 must be so brief. Accidents and price 

 of coal give me but little time to breathe, 

 much less lo write. Business has been 

 fairly good. I am not speaking about 

 myself, but from those I have inter- 

 viewed. We are trying to be very eco- 

 nomical for a week that we may be able 

 to attend that great event at Brooklyn. 



We have had Messrs. Xickman, W. 

 Mott, Ringier, Skidelsky and several 

 other gentlemen to vi>it us lately, and 

 among others, a Mr. Wade, representing 

 that very good man. August Rhotert. 

 Of all progressive and otTensive young 

 students he takes the cake, and before 

 he makes a successful drummer he will 

 have to go through many a severe trial.
