Convention Notes. 



Everything is progressing finely. All 

 local arrangements are so far completed. 

 Every committee has been attending to 

 duties and every one is alive to his re- 

 sponsibility, to greet all visitors as well 

 as he knows how. The superintendent's 

 report of exhibitions shows up fine as 

 far as exhibitors are concerned. Some 

 of the larger firms have done nobly, but 

 we regret that the large wholesale houses 

 that should take advertising signs, have 

 not so far responded. The letter of the 

 firm of Bassett & Washburn was refresh- 

 ing, with a check for $50 for a sign and 

 the statement that "it is every florist's 

 duty to help this convention along." 

 Only a few more of such Bassetts and 

 Washburns and the local club will not 

 have to worry how to make both ends 

 meet. 



All concessions are given free of 

 charge and the club has only one point 

 in view, and that is to treat all visitors 

 gloriously. Even the souvenir program 

 was left to the private enterprise of J. 

 Austin Shaw and Harry Altick, so noth- 

 ing is coming from this source. 



It is everybody's desire to make this 

 the banner convention. So far nothing 

 is heard of landscape gardeners or plans 

 of enterprising firms and young men of 

 push. The Dayton Florist's Club will 

 see that liberal prizes are offered for 

 such work. Furthermore there is need 

 of electric signs of leading firms on the 

 outside grounds. Such can be offered at 

 reasonable cost. Wake up, gentlemen, 

 this is a national convention. All eyes 

 are centered for the time being on Day- 

 ton, Ohio. You owe it to yourself, to 

 your business, to the whole country, to 

 show the world what our peerless art 

 does for mankind, H. M. Frank. 



OMAHA. 



The Nebraska State Horticultural So- 

 ciety is in session this week Wednesday 

 and Thursday at Hanscom park pavilion. 

 Thursday afternoon, July 12, is florists' 

 day, the program being entirely given 

 over to the interests of greenhouse own- 

 ers. Ed. Williams, Grand Island, of the 

 firm of Brewster & Williams, is down 

 for an address on "Bedding Plants and 

 Planting Beds." Irwin Frey, of Frey 

 & Frey, Lincoln, is assigned the topic, 

 "The Ideal Carnation." John Bath, 

 of this city, who is store manager for 

 A. Donaghue, will offer some suggestions 

 on "The Care of Cut Flowers." 

 "Koses" is the topic assigned M. 

 Stauch, foreman for J. F. Wilcox, at 

 Council Bluffs. It promises to be an 

 especially interesting session and draw 

 the attendance of practically all the 

 florists in this section of the country.
