The Florists' Review 



Jdnb 25, 1014. 



I.ANCASTEE, PA. 



Club Meeting. 



President B. F. Barr called the Lan- 

 caster County Florists ' Club to order on 

 Thursday evening, June 18, with a large 

 attendance of members. Much interest 

 was shown in the arrangements for the 

 annual picnic and the preparations for 

 the fall flower show. The Auditorium 

 has been leased for November 6 and 7. 

 The committee is at work on a schedule 

 of awards, and special attention will be 

 given to amateur exhibits. 



Elmer J. Weaver reported for the 

 picnic committee. The picnic will be 

 held at Mount Gretna, July 16. The 

 special train leaves the Pennsylvania 

 depot at 9:40 a. m., and, returning, 

 reaches Lancaster about 8:30 p. m. 

 Mount Gretna is a beautiful mountain 

 resort, with many attractions, and will 

 make an ideal place for the picnic. An 

 invitation is extended to all florists in 

 neighboring counties, and their friends, 

 to join with us in this outing. 



The papers of the evening were read 

 by Chas. M, Weaver, of Ronks, whose 

 subject was "Asters," and ira H. Lan- 

 dis, of Paradise, whose subiect was 

 "Gladioli." 



H. D. Kohrer exhibited some fine Nia- 

 gara and America gladiolus blooms. 



The committee on cooperative buving 

 is investigating a corrugated box propo- 

 sition offered by one of the large east- 

 ern firms. 



The program committee is arranging 

 some special features for the fall meet- 

 ings, which are being looked forward to 

 with much interest.

 plant. H. K. R.

There has been no decision as yet 

 from the Court of Appeals in the flo- 

 rists' tax case. We learn from the 

 county clerk that this court has re- 

 turned no decisions in any of the cases 

 heard here. The judges are said to have 

 been well loaded with cases belonging 

 to their own district and some time is 

 therefore required to dig through the 

 accumulation of local and foreign mat- 

 ter.

GERANIUMS 



Careful growers do not depend on the scrubs left over from the bedding 

 season for propagating their next season's stock. They know that it pays them 

 to safeguard the vitality of the geranium stock, just as well as of the carnation 

 or the rose. We have thousands of vigorous young plants which were propa- 

 gated late for this purpose. Let us supply you from these— they are a bargain 

 at $2..50 per 100, $20.00 per 1000. We have :
