After an informal luneh in the grill 

 room, the party adjourned to the Gold 

 room. Lincoln Pierson took the chair 

 and exjdained the object of the meeting 

 in a carefully prepared address. The 

 Xew York growers felt that tlni amount 

 of capital involved in their business de- 

 nianded that they organize for protec- 

 tion. Their object was advertising with 

 a view to stabilizing prices and cooper- 

 ative buying. They wished the assist- 

 ance of all those growers whose jtroduce 

 found its way to the metropolitan dis- 

 trict. They were asking Philadelphia 

 to join them. They were asking Boston 

 to join them. They might ask the grow- 

 ers of carnations and other flowers to 

 join them. While the constitution clearly 

 disavowed any intention of price set- 

 ting, it was evident from the discussion 

 that followed Mr. Pierson 's address that 

 the high cost of production made the 

 growers keenly alive to price inequali- 

 ties. The keynote of their problem was 

 that the retailers as a body appeared to 

 aim at small sales and large profits, 

 whereas the growers believed that pres- 

 ent needs would be better met bv large

 posed by the New Yorkers. Another 

 and larger meeting will be called shortly.
