INDIANAPOLIS. 



On the afternoon of July 19 Mrs. Er- 

 nestHukriede took her own life by hang- 

 ing while mentally weakened by the se- 

 vere heat of the period. She was 66 

 years of age, a native of Germany, and 

 had one son, Fred B., who is associated 

 -with his father in business. The funeral 

 took place on Friday, July 21, and was 

 attended by several of the craft, while 

 many others sent floral pieces. Among 

 these was a beautiful wreath from the 

 State Florists' Association of Indiana, 

 arranged by John Kieman. Mr. Hukriede 

 and his family have the sympathy of all 

 the craft in their sad bereavement.

NEW ORLEANS. 



Oub Meeting. 



The regular annual meeting of the 

 New Orleans Horticultural Society took 

 place Wednesday evening, July 19. Sev- 

 eral reports of committees were heard. 

 About the last outing, everybody report- 

 ed having enjoyed it. On request of C. 

 W. Eichling, discussion on the new fu- 

 neral badges to be adopted by the society 

 was laid over until some other time. J. 

 Newsham, chairman of the next show, 

 wanted to have some understanding about 

 the prize money to be awarded to the 

 members. It was decided that no money 

 •would be taken from the treasury for that 

 purpose except after all expenses had 

 been paid. The report of the treasurer 

 showed a balance to the credit of the 

 society of $707.25. 



Fred L. Chopin was elected a member 

 and also H. A. Despommier, who Is not 

 exactly new, as he w«»o one of the old 

 memlx'rs, having left the society some 

 years ago on account of bad health. Mr, 

 Despommier, on being reinstated, made 

 some remarks much to the credit of the 

 society. He said that for a long time 

 we could uardly get a new member to 

 join us, but it seems now that at every 

 meeting we have to pass on the admission 

 of one or two more. 



Next month the society is going to be 

 twenty years old. On the advice of Chas. 

 White, one of the pioneers of the organ- 

 ization, this anniversary will be cele- 

 brated by a banquet. A subscription 

 was opened at once between the members 



The S. A. F. Convention is close 

 at hand and everyone is inter- 

 ested in Icnowing all about 



What You Will Show 



in the Trades' Display. Tell 

 them about it in the next 

 few issues of

and a nice sum was collected, enough to 

 insure a good layout for August 24. 



Then came the election of new oflScers. 

 For the next twelve r^mths the society 

 will have for president, P. A. Chopin; 

 vice-president, Justin St. Mard; secre- 

 tary, C. R. Panther; treasurer, John Eb- 

 len. The choice of the new president was 

 by acclamation. He is a young man, 

 born and raised in the business, with 

 good ambition, and no doubt the society 

 will prosper with him at the head. 



A letter was read from Chas. Eble, the 

 Baronne street florist, who was then in 

 Buffalo with his family. He s^t to the 

 society his best wishes for the occasion 

 and we all expect to hear more from him 

 on his return, when he will have visited 

 our brother florists in Washington, Balti- 

 more, Philadelphia and other places, 

 where it is his intention to stop when 

 coming back to New Orleans.

Various Notes. 



Going around a few florists lately, we 

 found M. Cook & Son very busy with the 

 remodeling of their greenhouses planted 

 full with roses and chrysanthemums. 

 Everything looks in tip top order and 

 gives good promise for the opening of 

 the fall flower season. 



Business is about at a standstill, al- 

 though some report a little better than 

 usual at this time of the year. Asters ' 

 did not do" well this season. Abele Bros, 

 report their chrysanthemums as far ad- 

 vanced as possible for the time. ^ 



H. Papworth is working day and 

 night to have his fine range of 28x225 

 greenhouses erected in time for next fall.
