CHICAGO FLORISTS' CLUB. 



The Chicago Florists' Club held its 

 regular December meeting at the Mor- 

 rison Hotel on the seventh. It was the 

 -annual election of officers, and many 

 members were out to work [or their 

 particular favorites, with the following 

 results: President, Wm. H. Amling, 

 May wood. III.; vice-president. Paul 

 Klingsporn. Chicago; secretary. Allie 

 Zech. Chicago: treasurer. Otto Amling. 

 Maywood. 111. The president-elect is 

 •one of the most successful growers of 

 cut flowers for the Chicago market and 

 his s'ork is sold by the commission 

 house of Zech & Mann. The vice-presi- 

 dent came from Philadelphia three 

 years ago to take the management of 

 the Chicago Flower Growers' .Associa- 

 tion and has made good in his work 

 and also made many friends here. The 

 secretary is one of the youngest men 

 in the trade to be at the head of a 

 large wholesale business such as Zech 

 & AL^inn lius built up. The treasurer 

 is a well-known grower and a nephew 

 of the new president. Wm. F. Keiniel 

 was elected trustee to succeed Geo. 

 Asmus. whose term has expired. 



A. F. .1. Baur, of Indianapolis, was 

 present and exhibited carnations 

 Merry Christmas and Pollyanna. J. C. 

 Matheson. of Shelioygan. Wis., sent 

 three plants of a pink begonia of the 

 Enchantress Supreme shade. French 

 & '&alm had some magnificent Mrs. 

 Russell roses from their place at 



Union Grove. C. C. Watson, represent- 

 ing Niessen & Co., of Phila., expressed 

 the belief that could the growers of 

 his city see these roses they would be 

 encouraged to try again to grow the 

 Mrs. Russell rose. They made the 

 high score of 92 points. 



CONNECTICUT HORTICULTURAL 

 SOCIETY. 



The annual meeting of the Connecti- 

 cut Horticultural Society was held in 

 Hartford on Friday evening, Dec. 8th. 

 After the general routine business had 



been taken care of and the auditing 

 committee had reported the books of 

 the treasurer and the secretary 0. K., 

 the officers who served during 1916 

 were unanimously chosen to succeed 

 themselves for 1917. 



President Hollister introduced the 

 matter of flower shows to be held next 

 year, and plans are contemplated of 

 giving Hartford a June Flower Show, 

 a Dahlia Show and a Chrysanthemum 

 Show. Inasmuch as the next meeting 

 would be held the Friday before 

 Christmas it was voted to omit that 

 meeting. Alfred Dixox. Secv.
