MILWAUKEE. 



The Milwaukee Retail Florists' Asso- 

 ciation was organized June 30 at the He- 

 publican bouse for the protection of 

 mutual interests. The association is 

 composed of twenty-four members and 

 officers were elected as follows: Presi- 

 dent, Mrs. Frederick Davis; vice-presi- 

 dent, William Edlefson; secretary, A. B. 

 Loufbourow; treasurer, Mrs. Ida Baum- 

 garten. 



F. Praefke is building three new 

 greenhouses at his place on Concordia 

 avenue, which he expects to have ready 

 for planting by August 1. The heating 

 contract has been awarded to Louis A. 

 Riemer, who will install a Furman sec- 

 tional hot-water boiler. Mr. Praefke, to 

 accommodate his downtown trade, will 

 open a flower store on Third street, near 

 Garfield avenue. 



INDIANAPOLIS. 



Various Notes. 



Emptying and refilling the benches is 

 the order of the day now, and planting 

 mums is going on apace. From all 

 appearances there will be an immense 

 cut of the autumn flowers in this vicin- 

 ity. 



Bertermann Bros, have begun glazing 



their new range of houses near Cumber- 

 land; they have a fine water supply from 

 a deep well, getting the required pressure 

 from a high water tower. 



John Bertermann and family start for 

 their cottage on the lakes in a few days. 



Baur & Smith have commenced cutting 

 their Shasta daisies, and judging by the 

 look of the patch, they can take care of 

 all orders. 



Wiegand & Son are making extensive 

 improvements in their store; this firm 

 believes in expansion and doing things 

 up right. 



Henry Rieman has taken out a build- 

 ing permit fpr a $2,000 greenhouse. 

 With this addition Henry will have a 

 model establishment dnd be in good 

 shape to handle his increasing trade. 



There will be a large party of florists 

 attend the convention from this city. It 

 is the intention, if the party is large 

 enough, to charter a special car. 



Ben Pritchard, who is with Wiegand 

 & Son, is back again after a vacation 

 spent in the hills of Brown county. S. 



ELBERON, N. J. 



A meeting of the Elberon Horticul- 

 tural Society was held on Monday, July 

 2, with President W. D. Robertson in 

 the chair. A good number of the mem- 



bers were present, considering the warm 

 weather we were passing through at that 

 date. Some good exhibits were shown, 

 notably a collection of cannas shewn by 

 A. Bauer, who was awarded a certificate 

 of merit. 



The prize of the evening, which was 

 awarded by W. W. Kennedy, of Red 

 Bank, for a collection of vegetables, was 

 won by F. Dettlinger. A. Bauer, H. 

 Hall and Ben Wycoff exhibited collec- 

 tions of cut flowers, and W. D. Robert- 

 son exhibited a vase of Chysanthemum 

 maximum. Some good vegetables were 

 also shown by J. Kennedy and A. Greil. 

 This young society holds its first flower 

 show on Friday and Saturday, July 13 

 and 14. 



ORANGE, N. J. 



The regular monthly meeting and floral 

 display of the New Jersey Floricultural 

 Society was held on July 6, with orchids 

 in the lead from the commercial houses 

 of Lager & Hurrell and the Julius Roehrs 

 Co., and many rare and meritorious con- 

 tributions were shoitn from the neighbor- 

 ing estates. A pat)er upon the dahlia was 

 read by Walter Gray, of Maplewood, N. 

 J., and letters upon the recent exor- 

 bitant and oppressive charges of the 

 United States Express Company were 

 presented.
