Florists' Association Meeting. 



At the meeting of the Boston Flo- 

 rists' Association^ January 4, briefly 

 reported in the last issue of The Re- 

 view, all oi the new officers were in- 

 stalled and wade addresses excejit F. 

 E. Palmer, "treasurer, who was unavoid- 

 ably absent. B. F. Letson, the new 

 jrresident, gave an excellent and 

 thoughtful address, in which he urged 

 the sinking of all jpetty jealousies and 

 differences and the banding together 

 for the common good. He pledged him- 

 self to work hard for the association. 

 It is hoped the new governor of Massa- 

 chusetts will be present at an early 

 meeting. Other good speakers are 

 being arranged for. Each member 

 was urged to bring in a new memoer 

 during February. It was voted to hold 

 the meetings later in the month here- 

 after. There was a good attendance, 

 and 4be opening meeting of the year 

 was jiiost encouraging. 



Various Notes. 



The Gardeners' and Florists' Club 

 will meet January 18. Officers for 1921 

 will be installed, and after the regular 

 business session a collation will be 

 served, followed by dancing. As this 

 is the annual ladies' night, a large at- 

 tendance of tlie fair sex is hoped for. 

 The annual banquet will be held in 

 Horticultural hall February 3, and ^v^ll 

 be of the usual high order. Horticul- 

 tural hall was selected as being more 

 desirable than any of the hotels. Al- 

 bert C. Burrage will be one of the 

 guests. Tickets will be on sale at the 

 meeting January 18. 



H. N. Eaton, of South Sudbury, is 

 bringing in fine daily supplies of calen- 

 dulas and finds a ready sale for them. 

 Mr. Eaton finds they do well in a car- 

 nation temperature and sows his seed 

 in August. The cooler grown flowers 

 are of the finest quality, but heat gives 

 more blooms. 



F. E. Palmer, of Brookline, was one 

 grower whose Christmas sales, both 

 cash and credit, went well ahead of 

 1918 and 1919. A look over his green- 

 houses showed that cyclamens, be- 

 gonias and primulas were well cleaned 

 out. At present a fine lot of early 

 hyacinths are in bloom, and an excel- 

 lent batch of herbaceous calceolarias 

 .were to be seen. The immense planted- 

 out specimen of Acacia ]iul)escons here 

 will soon be a veritable bower of 

 beauty. 



The Boston Florists' Association 

 sent a handsome basket of flowers for 

 the inauguration of Governor Chan- 

 ning Cox January "j. 



Visitors last week included F. G. 

 Sealey, New York; Dr. Frank E. Ben- 

 nett, " St. Thomas, Ont., and E. K. 

 Thomas, Kingston, R. I.
