The St. Louis Florists* Club meets 

 February 6 at C. A. Kuehn's wholesale 

 house. An exhibition of old and new 

 varieties of carnations is the attrac- 

 tion. 



Dr. George T. Moore, head of the 

 Missouri Botanical Garden, Dr. B. M. 

 Duggar and Dr. J. M. Greenman, also 

 of the garden staff, have returned home 

 from a recent meeting of the Botanical 

 Society of America, held at Baltimore, 

 Md. 



Social affairs will be frequent from 

 now on until Lent, as there are many 

 announcements of weddings, dinners 



and receptions, which should create a 

 lively trade in flowers, especially among 

 the west end florists. As far as St. 

 Louis is concerned, the winter is over, 

 as old Sol, after being on the job for 

 the last ten days, took a day off Febru- 

 ary 2 and the ground hog concluded 

 not to return to his winter quarters. 



John McAna, of the H. G. Berning 

 force, and Tony Bova, of the Bed Bud 

 FloraJ Co., have received honorable dis- 

 charge from the army and are back in 

 their old positions. 



Mr. and Mrs. H. G. Berning have re- 

 turned from a trip through Ohio. They 



took in the meeting of the Carnation. 

 Society, and report a most enjoyable 

 visit at Cleveland. 



The St. Louis Seed Co. has maUed out 

 its sprimg catalogfue. The springlike 

 weather last week kept the force busy 

 here. 



W. A. Eowe, Kirkwood, is consigning 

 to this market an abundance of fine 

 bulbous stock, especially of Paper 

 Whites. 



Nelson Conliff, park commissioner, 

 was elected head of the War Camp 

 Community Service Board, at a meet- 

 ing of the board last week.
