DAVENPORT, lA. 



The Tri-City florists held a meeting 

 March 21 at i'ejervary park and elected 

 officers for the ensuing year as follows: 

 President, William Knees; vice-presi- 

 dent for Davenport, Henry Pauli; vice- 

 president for Eock Island, Henry Myer; 

 vice-president for Moline, Julius Staack; 

 treasurer, Adolph Arp; secretary, John 

 Staack; financial secretary, Theodore L. 

 Ewoldt; trustees, P. Becker, Frank 

 Wolz and Henry Gaethje. 



The topic for discussion was "Beauti- 

 fying City Lots and School Grounds. ' ' 

 Plans were also discussed for the form- 

 ing of a horticultural society. The ob- 

 ject of the society would be to give dis- 

 plays regularly which would include 

 every branch of the florist's work. Such 

 an organiaztion is badly needed in Dav- 

 enport and it is thought more definite 

 plans will be made in the near future. 



After the business meeting a social 

 time was enjoyed and refreshments were 

 served in the Inn. The next meeting 

 will be held at Fejervary park April 11, 

 and will be open to the ladies. 



ELBERON, N. J. 



The Elberon Horticultural Society 

 held its regular meeting March 18, with- 

 President Bobertson in the chair. A. 

 Greib, superintendent for S. Sachs, gave 

 an address on ' ' Violets, ' ' which was 

 both interesting and instructive. A. 

 Kiekards, of New York, and W. F. Eoss, 

 of Tarrytown, were present and made 

 interesting remarks. The principal ex- 

 hibits at this meeting were: Vase of 

 Cattleya Schroederiana, by W. D. Bob- 

 ertson; vase of Princess of Wales vio- 

 lets, by A. Greib; vase of Narcissus 

 Princeps, by J. Kennedy; vase of calla 

 lilies, by P. Murray; vase of La France 

 violets, by F. Dettlinger; vase of Stock 

 Princess Elizabeth, by G. A. Bauer; vase 

 of the grape hyacinth, by B. Wyckoflf, 

 and a specimen azalea, by H. Wood.
