steamer to New Orlo:ui.s and home by 

 way of Memphis. On the way they 

 called on some of their trade connec- 

 tions, but kept as far from business as 

 they could. Eric Johnson, whose in- 

 terest is in cut flowers, went to Chestnut 

 Hill, near Philadelphia, to visit the 

 Beauty growers, Myers & Samtnran. He 

 was greatly jjleased with the new rose 

 there, American Legion. Myers & Samt- 

 man are planting this largely, for cut 

 flowers, and will i)articii>ate with the 

 originator, I']dward Towill, in its dis- 

 semination. American Legion is distinct 

 in color, cerise, and has received numer- 

 ous awards at eastern shows. It has at- 

 tracted visits from several western 

 growers and Mr. Johnson believes it 

 will bo widely planted here when stock 

 becomes available. 



The funeral of W. W. Barnard, which 

 was held March 16, at Bethany Union 

 church, at Washington Heights, was 

 largely attended, and the high esteem in 

 which ho was w'idely held was evident 

 bv the profusion of flowers. Henry R. 

 Singler and A. Lange, as well as other 

 florists of the city, furnished beautiful 

 wreaths and other tributes. Among 

 those wlio attended the funeral were 

 Leonard Vaughan, S. F. Leonard, Peter 

 Hollenbach and John Steinmetz. Rev. 

 Clvde McGee, pastor of the Bethany 

 Union church, to which Mr. Barnard be- 

 longed, gave a m»st touching address on 

 Mr. Barnard's Christian sjtirit and 'ns 

 devotion to the church.

 ham houses there. At Charles Meier's
