LENOX HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY. 



The annual meeting of the Lenox 

 Horticultural Society held December 

 4, 1909, -was largely attended. Letters 

 were read from the judges of our fall 

 exhibition, congratulating the members 

 upon the magnificent display, special 

 praise, however, being bestowed upon 

 the plant group and vegetable collec- 

 tions. The treasurer and secretary 

 read their annual reports, which 

 showed the society to be in a very 

 flourishing condition, financial and 

 otherwise. Special applause greeted 

 these announcements and everyone 

 agreed that this had been a banner 

 year in the annals of the societj'. 



The following were unanimously 

 elected officers for the ensuing year: 

 George Foulsham. president ; George 

 Breed, vice-president; Walter Jack, 

 treasurer; George H. Instone, secre- 

 tary; and Joseph Pybus. assistant sec- 

 retary. Before leaving the chair. Pres- 

 ident A. Jenkins thanked the members 

 for their loyal support during his ten- 

 ure of ofiiee and trusted the same good 

 fellowship would always exist amongst 

 the members. A rising vote of thanks 

 was accorded the retiring oiflcers, af- 

 ter which the newly elected ones were 

 installed in their respective stations. 

 After business had been concluded, re- 

 freshments were served. The rest of 

 the evening was enlivened with speech- 

 making, recitations and singing. A 

 most enjoyable time was brought to 

 a close just before midnight by sing- 

 ing "Aula Lang Syne." 



GEORGE H. INSTONE, 

 Secretary. 



ALBANY (N. Y.) FLORIST CLUB. 



A large attended meeting of the Al- 

 bany Florist Club was held on Thurs- 

 day, December 2nd. The committee on 

 the flower show reported that it was a 

 good financial success for a first show. 

 Election of ofllcers for the ensuing 

 year resulted as follows: President, 

 Fred Goldring; vice-president, John N. 

 Sambrook: treasurer, L. Menand, Sr.; 

 secretary, P. A. Danker; trustee three 

 years, Fred Henkes. One new member 

 "was elected. Four applications re- 

 ceived. 



CHICAGO NOTES. 

 Weather Erratic and Discouraging. 



If weather conditions have as much 

 to do with regulating the supply and 

 demand for Christmas plants and flow- 

 ers as some florists are inclined to 

 think, then everyone will have a share 

 of the kind he regards most favorable. 

 The storm we reported a week ago to 

 have just reached Chicago was a gen- 

 uine blizzard of fair proportions, and 

 raged Sunday and Monday. Tuesday 

 the thermometer dropped to four be- 

 low zero and continued in that vicin- 

 ity constantly for three days, warm- 

 ing up the last of the week and end- 

 ing with a rain Sunday. This is the 

 fifth successive rainy Sunday and those 

 who look to that day for heavy sales 

 are feeling decidedly blue. 



Wm. H. Gast has opened a new re- 

 tail store at 2556 Linden place, oppo- 

 site Logan Square station. 



The scarcity of bouquet greens is 

 very marked. The price asked this 

 week is $11 a crate and very little ob- 

 tainable even at this price. 



Personal. 



Mr. A. E. Hunt, a grower in Evans- 

 ton, with oflices at No. 60 Wabash 

 avenue, Chicago, was a passenger of 

 a Chicago and Northwestern train 

 which was wrecked at the limits of 

 Chicago, Sunday, December 12th. He 

 was badly shaken up and cut by the 

 broken glass, but is not thought to be 

 seriously injured. He is confined to 

 his home.
