January was a wonderful month for 

 the nurserymen. As an example, in the 

 vicinity of Chicago planting continued 

 every working day of the month, whereas 

 last year not a day's work was done out 

 of doors. The^e are those who say sales 

 exceeded the total for the first two 

 months of 1918. 



ILUNOIS CONVENTION OPENS. 



Nurserymen Gather in Chicago. 



It was an optimistic crowd of men 

 that gathered in the Hotel La Salle, 

 Chicago, February 5, for the second an- 

 nual convention of the Illinois State

 out exception the growers predicted bet- 

 ter and bigger business for this year. 

 None was downhearted over the pros- 

 pects. 



Thirty-two members and visitors were 

 present at the opening session of the 

 convention, presided over by Guy A. 

 Bryant, of Princeton, 111., president of 

 the association. An address of welcome 

 was delivered by J. E. Duffield, of the 

 Association of Commerce and Eotary 

 Club, Chicago. 



In his address Mr. Bryant described 

 the growth of the nursery business in 

 Illinois since the admission of the state 

 into the Union 100 years ago and pre- 

 dicted a bright future for the trade. 



Numerous Addresses. 



Other addresses scheduled for the first 

 day's sessions were by A. H. Hill, of 

 Dundee, 111.; William Peterson, of Chi- 

 cago, 111.; Hon. Charles Adkins, director 

 of agriculture, of Springfield, 111.; J. A. 

 Young, of Aurora, 111.; F. S. Webb, sec- 

 retary of the Wholesale Florists ' Credit 

 Association, and Thomas A. McBeth, of 

 Springfield, O. 



Discussions of the topics dwelt upon 

 by the speakers were led by George 

 Klehm, of Arlington Heights, 111.; B. J. 

 Vandervort, of Bloomington, 111., and 

 L. F. Dintelmann, of Belleville, 111.

 sion of subjects of interest to nursery-
