The Florists^ Review 



19 



Peter Weiland, New Castle, Iiul., 

 made a display of sweet peas. 



Deerfield Nursery, Deerfield, 111., 

 showed Kadiance, a new seedling sweet 

 pea. 



Rose-pink Ophelia, staged by Fred 

 Breitmeyer, Mt. Clemens, Mich., at- 

 tracted much attention, largely because 

 Ophelia, from which it is a sport, has 

 proved tractable in the hands of many 

 growers who have indifferent success 

 with the Killarney varieties and who 

 will welcome another color in it. 



Bertermann Bros. Co., Indianapolis, 

 showed fine snapdragons. 



W. J. & M. S. Vesey, Fort Wayne, 

 Ind., staged an excellent table of 

 orchids. 



Zech & Mann, Chicago, put up a dis- 

 play of exceptionally long-stemmed 

 I'urity freesia. 



Table decorations were staged by the 

 Ilill Floral Co., Bertermann Bros. Co., 

 A. Wiegand's Sons Co., Claypool Hotel 

 Florist, Hensley's Flower Shop and 

 Pahud Floral Co. 



The Business Session. 



The cultural ability of those who at- 

 tend the annual meeting of the Ameri- 

 can Carnation Society is shown by the 

 fact that the reading of essays has been 

 discontinued; the members no longer 

 care to spend the time in listening to set 

 papers on topics which, with them at 

 least, are threadbare. The nearest ap- 

 proach to a program this year was in 

 the secretary's announcenient that a 

 discussion of the "yellows" would take 

 place. 



The morning of the first dav of the 

 meeting was devoted to staging the ex- 

 hibits, a work which, if not participated 

 in, is watched by most of those present. 

 The hall was closed in the earlv after- 

 noon to all except the judges "and the 

 secretary, but was opened to members 

 from the completion of the judging until 

 8 p. m., when the doorg were opened to 

 the public. At the same time the an- 

 nual business session started in an ad- 

 joining room. 



The address of President Ammaim 

 and the report of Secretary Baur appear 

 in full in this issue, together with a 

 summary of Treasurer Dorner's finan- 

 cial statement.
