The official train to Cleveland for 

 florists who intend to go to the S. A. F. 

 (.onvention leaves the La Salle street 

 station on the New York Central lines 

 at 11 p. m., Monday, August 16. Each 

 member of the club is appointed a mem- 

 ber of the reception committee to greet 

 visiting florists passing through Chi- 

 cago to the convention. The club is go- 

 ing to send its bowling team, which 

 won the championship at the convention 

 in Detroit laat year, to the Cleveland 

 (•on\ention to again take the honors. 

 A. J. Zech is in charge of the arrange- 

 ments for the team. 



By action taken at this meeting it 

 was decided to discontinue meetings for 

 the summer months. There will be no 

 meetings during July, August and Sep- 

 tember. It was resolved to open the fall 

 season October 7 and an appropriation 

 of $250 was set aside for the use of the 

 good of the club committee to arrange 

 for a special program fitting for tne 

 occasion. 



Various Notes. 



Edward Mcuret, of Park Ridge, who 

 is vice-president of the Chicago Flower 

 Growers' As;;ociation, has sold his 

 greenhouses to Michael Leider, of 

 Evanston, who will take possession 

 July 1. The range consists of four 

 houses, about 30,000 feet of glass, all 

 in carnations, with young stock enough 

 of the best varieties in the field to 

 enable the new owner to replant at 

 once. The purchase did not include the 

 residence and its grounds, which Mr. 

 Meuret will occupy until he closes one 

 of several offers, after which he pur- 

 poses taking the first long vacation he 

 has had in vcars. Probably he will 

 spend next winter in California. Mr. 

 Meuret expects, in the course of time, 

 to reenter the growing business on a 

 much larger scale. 



Joseph Ziska & Sons are steadily de- 

 veloping their manufacturing interests. 

 The latest addition to the line is a 

 white enameled wood easel. There is 

 n big sale for such an article, because 

 no florist nowadays thinks of sending 

 out a large design without supporting 

 it on one of these easels, which easily 

 add many times their cost to the ef-
