Reading, Pa. — A brief business session 

 of the Reading Florists' Association re- 

 cently was held at the residence of D. P. 

 Guldin. J. Stanley Giles presided. Re- 

 ports of the fall flower show were offered 

 and showed that the event was a finan- 

 cial success. Another exliibition, on a 

 larger scale, will be made next year. 



Lincoln, 111. — Gullett & Sons say: 

 "Our Christmas business was extremely 

 large and, barring the serious trouble 

 caused by the poor condition of azaleas, 

 it was entirely satisfactory. Wo wish 

 something might be said in this Week's 

 issue to soften down the feelings of buy- 

 ers of azaleas, some of whom did not 

 show proper consideration of the whole- 

 salers' efforts to fill orders. It is dis- 

 couraging."
