RAILROAD GARDFNRRS' CONVEN- 

 TION. 



The third annual convention of the 

 American Association of Railroad Gar- 

 deners convened in Horticultural Hall, 

 Philadelphia, on the morning of Au- 

 gust 24th. In the absence of Presi- 

 dent Hirsch, J. S. Butterfield of the 

 Missouri Pacific was called to the 

 chair. The secretary of the associa- 

 tion, G€orge B. Moulder, of the Illinois 

 Central, made an address, outlining 

 the objects and history of the asso- 

 ciation. A lengthy discussion on the 

 voting privileges of members was taken 

 part in by Messrs. PYench, Dunlap, Mc- 

 Cauley and others. The question was 

 finally disposed of on motion — one 

 man, one vote — irrespective of rail- 

 road. John Westcott extended a wel- 

 come on behalf of Philadelphia, the 

 Pennsylvania Horticultural Society, and 

 the Florists' Club. In the afternoon 

 an inspection trip over the Reading 

 R. R., in charge of Albert C. Hueb- 

 ner, in the absence of his father 

 through sickness, was taken by way of 

 Norristown and Lansdale to Trenton 

 Junction, which was much enjoyed. 

 William Kleinheinz, a close personal 

 friend of Mr. Huebner, assisted in do- 

 ing the honors of the occasion which 

 wound up with a dinner at Ostendorff's 

 as the guests of Mr. Huebner. The 

 evening meeting took place at the 

 I''lorists' Club (juarters, at which many 

 able papers were discussed, particulars 

 of which we will give later. Among 

 those present and speaking were: 



C. J. Andrews, P. R. R., Morton, Pa.; 

 J. A. Byrne, B. & 0., Relay, Md.; Pat- 

 rick Foy, Norfolk & Western; G. E. 

 Preston, Illinois Central; J. Gipner, 

 Michigan Central, Niles, Mich.; F. W. 

 Vail. Central of N. J., Dunellan, N. J.;

The following officers were elected 

 for ensuing year: George B. Moulder 

 of Illinois Central R. R., Chicago, 

 president; Patrick Foy, Norfolk and 

 Western R. R., Roanoke. Va., vice- 

 president; J. S. Butterfield, secre- 

 taiT and treasurer. After the execu- 

 tive business, evening session of Au- 

 gust 24, was concluded several inter- 

 esting papers were read on subjects 

 connected with the objects of the asso- 

 ciation. The paper by E. A. Richard- 

 son on the 'Ideal Railroad Gardener," 

 read by G. J. Andrews, was listened to 

 with great interest as it gave a clear 

 idea of the executive ability and per- 

 sonal qualities needed in the man who 

 must interest both the public and the 

 railroad in the making of "a beautiful 

 gateway into each community." Other
