The Weekly Florists* Review^ 



August 23, 1906. 



NEV ORLEANS. 



On the instruction of Vice-President 

 C. W. Eichling, of the Society of South- 

 ern Florists, J. Steckler, treasurer, called 

 a meeting of the local members for 

 Thursday, August 16. The most impor- 

 tant point was to come to an under- 

 stanamg about the time which would be 

 the most proper to call the first con- 

 vention. After a close discussion on the 

 subject it was decided to have it on 

 November 15, provided special reduced 

 rates on the railroads could be obtained. 

 A committee of three, H. Papworth, J. 

 Steckler and J. H. Menard, was ap- 

 pointed to confer with the railroads. 



Charles Eble made a motion, which 

 was seconded by many members, to issue 

 a general invitation to florists, without 

 any distinction between north or south, 

 to be present at our first convention, 

 this invitation to be distributed among 

 the florists by some of our local mem- 

 bers when at the convention in Dayton. 



Business is dull. There will be no 

 monthly meeting of our society before 

 October. The chrysanthemum crop seems 

 to be promising, from different reports 

 so far. The quantity planted is large.

INDIANAPOLIS. 



There is not much to report this week, 

 business being very dull. All who can 

 are taking their vacations and getting 

 ready for another season, which will be 

 on hand before we realize it. 



The Tomlinson Hall market shows the 

 effect of the summer season, so many 

 of the stands being unoccupied. In a 

 few weeks all this will change, and the 

 market will be as busy as ever. 



The aster disease from all reports is 

 worse than it 'has been; several florists 

 have lost nearly all they planted. 



The next stop . is Dayton. ' ' I don 't 

 know where I 'm going, but I 'm on my 

 way" Daytonwards, where I hope to 

 meet many friends and make new ones. 

 This should be the largest convention 

 the S. A. F. ever has held. Here 's 

 luck to it. S.
