Son, John Zimmerman, George Inder- 

 muhle, W. K Crissey, H. E. Weed Land- 

 scape Nursery, J. B. Pilkington, Wilson 

 & Grout Co., Swiss Floral Co. and the 

 Eoutledge Seed & Floral Co. The 

 Tonseth Floral Co. exhibited an attrac- 

 tive basket of a scarlet dahlia, Minnie 

 Burgle, which proved one of the fa- 

 vorite varieties among the visitors. 

 Several promising seedlings were ex- 

 hibited by commercial growers and one 

 table held over sixty vases of seedlings 

 entered by amateurs. Among the new 

 varieties was a seedling from Oregon 

 Beauty, grown by the Gill Bros. Seed 

 Co. 



The premium list contained 208 

 prizes open to professional growers of 

 dahlias, forty-four prizes for miscel- 

 laneous cut flowers from amateur, semi- 

 professional and juvenile growers; 

 twenty-three prizes for dahlias from 

 juvenile growers, 'thirty-eight prizes for 

 amateur growers of fall roses, thirty 

 prizes to exhibits of dahlias and novel- 

 ties for commercial growers, and six 

 prizes for cut flowers other than 

 dahlias, open to commercial growers. 



Excepting a few items in the miscel- 

 laneous list, entries were made under 

 nearly all the 350 divisions, and accord- 

 ing to the judges' report, an average 

 of three entries was made in each 

 class, totaling about 1,000 entries. 



The chief credit for the success of 

 the show should be given E. W. Gill, 

 secretary and show manager of the so- 

 ciety. President Richard M. Buttle 

 and E. H. White, treasurer, also de- 

 voted much time and effort to the ex- 

 hibition. 



Club Meeting. 



The Portland Floral Society held a 

 well attended monthly meeting Septem- 

 ber 21, at its headquarters in the Ma- 

 sonic Temple. H. A. Lewis, president 

 of the Multnomah County Fair Asso- 

 ciation, reported that the fair last week 

 was a success in every way and that 

 the beds of flowers on the grounds were 

 much admired. On behalf of the direc- 

 tors of the fair he thanked the society 

 for the interest it had taken in provid- 

 ing for the flower beds. 



James Forbes, chairman of the Floral 

 Society's committee on exhibitions, and 

 R. W. Gill, reported the completed ar- 

 rangements for staging the show of the 

 Dahlia Society. Secretary Niklas re- 

 ported that a meeting of the retailers' 

 ■committee had been held and several 

 topics of vital interest to themselves 

 discussed. The need for the coopera- 

 tion of the growers' committee wad 

 plainly brought out and William 

 Borsch, chairman of that committee, 

 was urged to call a meeting of all the 

 growers.

E. T. Mische related some interesting 

 anecdotes of the conventions which he 

 has attended. He was too modest to 

 say what happened to him at the As- 

 sembly of park superintendents, but the 

 statement by another member that Mr. 

 Mische was elected president of the 

 national association was applauded 

 vigorously. J. G. Bacher and A. J. 

 Clarke told of the impressions they 

 gained at the S. A. F. conventions. 



The trusses of ripe Tresco tomatoes 

 brought in by H. T. Fleishauer were 

 used as decorations at the meeting and 

 were passed around and eaten like 

 bunches of mammoth grapes at the re- 

 freshment tables.

September 23 was the widely adver- 

 tised Dollar day, a movement in which 

 the retail florists joined. So far as re- 

 ported, only a small amount of business 

 resulted from the extra advertising and 

 special bargains offered by the florists. 

 The movement was started by the 

 Chamber of Commerce and was state- 

 wide. S. W. W.
