Society Meetings. 



Monday, February 11, the next meet- 

 ing of the New York Florists' Club will 

 be held in the Grand Opera house. The 

 club's bowling enterprise and the home 

 for the members, with all the other 

 points of interest referred to in Presi- 

 dent Tbtty's inaugural, will be consid- 

 ered and many of them acted upon. 

 Some fine exhibits of novelties in car- 



nations are expected and anything of 

 value in plant or flower will be welcome. 

 The annual dinner will be held at the 

 St. Denis hotel. As usual, the stipend 

 will be $5, and the attendance shquld 

 go over 100 with the membership the 

 club now enjoys. The date is Saturday 

 evening, February 23, and the commit- 

 tee promises something out of the ordi- 

 nary in both flow of soul and feast for 

 the inner man that ought to give value 

 received to all who attend. 



This week two horticultural societies 

 celebrate with dinners that should draw 



full houses: Glen Cove on Thursday and 

 Orange on Friday. Later on the big 

 dinner at Poughkeepsie will close the 

 lestivities in this section for the season. 



The rose convention, at Washington, 

 in March, is already interesting the 

 growers, and under Messrs. Simpson's 

 and Hammond's enthusiastic manage- 

 ment a great success is already assured. 



On Thursday of this week, at the 

 American Institute in this city, the sec- 

 ond annual convention of the National 

 Association of Gardeners will be held. 

 A large attendance is looked for and the 

 program is an interesting one to every 

 member of the profession. President 

 Hunter will have charge of the exer- 

 cises. John Shore, of Harrison, N. Y., 

 will speak on ' ' The Maintenance of the 

 Dignity of the Gardeners' Profession." 

 James Logan, of Elberon, N. J., will 

 discourse on "Scenieal Planting." 

 Charles Dumper, of Bay Shore, will talk 

 on "Forcing Figs, Peaches and Nectar- 

 ines. ' ' John T. "Withers, of Jersey City, 

 N. J., will speak on ' ' Tree Surgery ; ' ' 

 Samuel Scott, of Pride's Crossing, Mass., 

 on ' * Herbaceous Plants, ' ' and J, P. Sor- 

 enson, of Stratford, on Thursday even- 

 ing, will speak on "Grapes Under 

 Glass." 



Various Notes. 



C. H, Totty was in the city Saturday 

 and his suggestion as to an afternoon 

 bowling club for the New York florists 

 meets with general approval. This ar- 

 rangement suits the convenience of the
