NEW ORLEANS. 



Current Comment 



The first annual convention of the 

 Society of Southern Florists and Orna- 

 mental Horticulturists will take place in 

 New Orleans February 13 to 15, 1907, or 

 the days following Mardi Gras. The 

 different committees appointed are at 

 work doing their best to have every 

 detail in a proper shape. As we have 

 noted previously, it will be conducted 

 as other conventions, with an exhibition 

 of plants, flowers and requisites. It 

 will certainly accomplish the same good 

 results that northern conventions accom- 

 plish and no doubt the opening meeting 

 will be largely attended. 



Louis Sieber, secretary of the Metairie 

 Eidge Nursery Co., Ltd., has accepted a 

 position of manager of a large establish- 

 ment at Ponchatoula, La., on the I. C. 

 R. R. The place is owned by Chicago 

 parties and consists of four green- 

 houses, 200 feet long, just erected, with 

 latest improvements and heated by a 

 Kroeschell boiler. It is entirely devoted 

 to cucumbers to be forced and shipped 

 north. 



The Gardeners' Mutual Protective 

 Association held its annual election of 

 officers December 15 and the following 

 were elected for the coming year: 

 President, Loui? Keintz; vice-president, 

 Andrew Klees; treasurer, John Kuehl; 

 grand marshal, C. R. Panter; guardian, 

 Mr. Skelhofer. 



The Abele Bros, have received the sad 

 news of the death of their aged father, 

 who died in Germany. They have the 

 sympathy of the craft. M. M. L. 



DOBBS FERRY, N. Y. 



The regular meeting of the Dobbs 

 Ferry Horticultural Association was held 

 in its room in Odd Fellows' hall, Satur- 

 day evening, December 8, President Dun- 

 bar in the chair. There was a prize for 

 the best fern in not larger than a 6-inoh 

 pot, which was awarded to H. Keiling 

 for a Nephrolepis Piersoni in a 4-inch 

 pot. It was a fine plant for so small a 

 pot. R. Boreham staged a collection of 

 new geraniums, some of which were the 

 finest it has been our pleasure to see. 

 He was awarded a cultural certificate. 

 T. A. Lees and J. Bradley were the 

 judges. J. Bradley staged some fine 

 mushrooms from pure culture spawn.

They fruit the second year. He says 

 this is no secret as he disposes of all he 

 can find room for, at retail. His store

 being filled with suitable stock.
