If you get them absolutely fresh, and with as little handling as possible, ' 

 you can keep them in your store in a salable condition longer than any 

 other variety. 



You can save the wholesale house rehandling — you can save one or two 

 days' time by getting them here direct from our cooling room the day 

 they are cut. 



Besides, notice our very moderate price list. Cut it out for future use. 

 These will be the prices till October 1.

postponed meeting July 22 at the office 

 of President Eudd. The work in hand 

 was the preparation for a gladiolus

 show for 1914. 1 he shows have not 

 been profitable of l^te, but will be con- 

 tinued as long as the society's surplus 

 holds out.

 troit.

NEW ORLEANS, LA. 



Club Meeting. 



The New Orleans Horticultural So- 

 ^■'•■ty held its twenty-eighth annual 

 "' ■ ting at the Association of Commerce 

 '"V'''ing, July 17. H. C. Doescher pre- 

 S' -'<], Paul Abele acted as secretary in 

 t'' absence of C. R. Panter, and an un- 

 " lally large number of enthusiastic 

 '" inbers were present. 



''• A. Chopin, who presided over the 



society during 1905-06, was elected as 

 the new president. Dan Newsham, one 

 of the younger, rising local florists, was 

 chosen vice-president. John Eblen, a 

 charter member and the society's first 

 treasurer, was reelected to that position 

 by a rising vote. C. R. Panter, who has 

 also served the society efficiently for 

 many years, as its secretary, was re- 

 elected. There being no opposition, all 

 officers were chosen by acclamation. 



The secretary's report showed that 

 the society is in excellent financial 

 condition. The books showed a balance 

 on hand of $800 in bonds, stocks and 

 cash. The membership has passed the 

 fifty mark. 



E. F. Farley was elected a member. 

 The applications of Charles Farley and 

 A. Verlander were received and laid 

 over until the next meeting. 



The business being over, all present 

 betook themselves to the banquet hall 

 of the Association of Commerce, where 

 an elegant cold supper was spread. The 

 president, P. A. Chopin, in his address 

 to the society, urged the members to 

 help him carry out his plan for a spring 

 flower show on as great a scale as ever 

 achieved here. He is confident that, by 

 a united effort, the people visiting the 

 show can be convinced that New Or- 

 leans can produce as elegant plants and 



flowers as any other locality in the 

 Union. He called upon the following 

 to express their views: E. Baker, who 

 made some remarks on the continuation 

 of the lectures, etc.; H. Papworth, who 

 spoke of progressiveness, as shown by 

 having in stock the latest novelties in 

 plants and other things pertaining to a 

 flower store; Paul Abele, on a greater 

 trade show; C. Eble, who predicted suc- 

 cess for the show on account of the 

 large number of big firms here now; F. 

 Reyes, on educating the people to appre- 

 ciate florists' wares; R. Stockier, on the 

 seed department of the business, de- 

 scribing the great benefits derived from 

 proper advertising; George Thomas, on 

 the great progress made in landscape 

 gardening here during the last ten 

 years. 



The splendid supper, provided by the 

 newly elected officers, was highly en- 

 joyed by all and many a toast was 

 drunk to the success of the officers, the 

 society and the spring flower show. The 

 next meeting will take place in August.
