Club Meeting. -?«• 



The regular monthly meeting of the 

 Florists' Club took place October 9, 

 at 2 p. .m., and was full of interest 

 from beginning to end. Joe Hauser, 

 of Webster Groves, showed a fine bunch 

 of his new single red dahlias, which 

 attracted a great. deal of attention, and 

 W. S. Wells displayed a large assort- 

 ment of fancy cut ferns, on which he 

 delivered an interesting talk. 



President Pilcher called the meeting 

 to order promptly and the attendance 

 numbered thirty-five when the meeting 

 opened, with all the officers present. 

 Adolph Jaenicke, a member of the pub- 

 licity committee, spoke on holding a 

 spring flower show. This brought out 

 a long discussion, in which all present 

 took part. At the conclusion it was 

 decided to discuss the subject again and 

 bring it to a final vote at the November 

 meeting. 



John S. Carter, president of the Nico- 

 tine Mfg. Co., and Phil Goebel, Jr., a 

 grower at Webster Groves, made appli- 

 cation for membership. All delinquent 

 members were given one more month in 

 which to pay last year's dues. The 

 treasurer's report showed the club to be 

 well off financially, with no outstanding 

 debts. W. S. Wells then began his lec- 

 ture on decorative ferns, with black- 

 board illustrations and specimen cut 

 ferns. This address was of great inter- 

 est to all and a vote of thanks was 

 extended at the conclusion. The chair 

 appointed a committee, consisting -of 

 W. C. Young, J. Connon and Pierre 

 Schneider, to look into the merits of 

 the new single dahlia exhibited by Joe 

 Hauser, and to see it growing on his 

 field and report at the next meeting of 

 the club. 



The question box brought out a long 

 discussion on the profits on cut carna- 

 tions. This discussion will be continued 

 at the next meeting, November 13.
