association separate from any trees 

 fjrown from buds that may be* cut l)y 

 themselves or others. The association 

 sees to it tliat only trees thrown from 

 hnds furnished by it arc sent out as 

 selected stock. 



"While the individual units that coni- 

 j)0se the association anticipate a ma- 

 terial profit from its operations, chiefly 

 from tlie fact that its success will en- 

 able nurserymen to standardize their 

 l)roducts, the organization itself is a 

 cooperative, noii-proiit-sharinjr enter-

SCRANTON FLORISTS MEET. 



The Scranton Florists' Club met Tues- 

 <lay evening, November 15, at the Hotel 

 Holland. I'resident Edgar Louis Keuling 

 presided. The i)urpose of this meeting 

 was chiefly to close up the affairs of the 

 flower show held last week and a large 

 number of members attended. B. E. 

 Ookely, floor manager of exhibits at the 

 show, and his assistant, William Mac- 

 Donald, reported that everything had 

 passed off pleasantly. All exhibitors 

 were gracious in their ajipointments of 

 space and heli)ed to carry out the pro- 

 gram of the managers, which, in its 

 elaborateness, })roved to be a most sat- 

 isfactory demonstration of the ability 

 of the exhibitors as display makers. 

 Much credit is due Messrs. Cokely and 

 MacDonald for their untiring and pains- 

 taking effort and attention to the 

 minutest details of affairs at the sliow, 

 being on the floor early in the morning 

 and remaining until late at night to see 

 that everything was rightly ])laced and 

 kept in the best condition. 



It was unfortunate that we struck 

 such an inclement week, but, neverthe- 

 less, the show can be considered a finan- 

 cial success. The distance of our 

 armory, in which the show was held, 

 from the central part of the city is far 

 too great for the shoppers. Everyone 

 who attended had to make a sj)ecial 

 effort cither by street car or automobile 

 to get to the show. 



The following tradespeople, not mem- 

 tioned before, had exhibits: The Bur- 

 lington Willow Ware Shops, Burlington, 

 Ta., under the direction of T. J. Nolan, 

 had a creditable displ;iy. H. F. Micliell 

 Co., of Philadelphia, had a fine exhil)it 

 of hardy chrysantliemunis, bull)s, in- 

 secticides and many materials necessary 

 to florists. H. Bayersdorfer & Co., 

 Philadelphia, had an attractively ar- 

 ranged booth of liaskets, Christinas sup- 

 ]>lies and a good line of staple supplies, 

 under the management of Howard S. 

 J{oycr. The Ove (Inatt Co., I^aporte, 

 Ind., represented by H. E. Blackshaw, 

 liad a beautiful ;irriiy of baskets, rib- 

 bons and Christmas su])j)lies, wliicli at- 

 tracted a great deal of attention. The 

 Cliniax Mfg. Co., Castorland, N. Y., ;ind 

 the Edwards Folding Box Co. had dis- 

 j)lays of a fine line of cut flower shipping 

 boxes. The Joseph G. Xeidinger Co., of 

 Philadelphia, had an inviting arrange- 

 ment of baskets and geiieral flfirists' 

 supi)lies under the management of L. J, 

 Seiger. The M. Rice Co., of Philadel- 

 phia, exhibited riblions, l)askets, etc., 

 under the dir(M'tion of Arthur Zirkman 

 and M. E. Puch. B. E. & J. T. Cokely, 

 of Scranton. I'a.. had elaltorate and spa- 

 cious dis]ilMy of artificial tlowers and 

 florists ' supplies. 



These gentlennMi not only disiiose(l of 

 all goods on exhibition, but also took 

 numerous orders. Many letters have 

 been received from the various firms
