Reinberg and others, we were favored 

 with a few of the new introductions, so 

 the show was complete in every detail. 



In the evening of the first day the 

 banquet was held in the same room as the 

 exhibition. It was well attended by the 

 members and a few friends. Wm. F. 

 Kasting was toastmaster and ably filled 

 the bill. He called on several men for a 

 toast to the club, including Prof. Cowell 

 to give a few remarks on a horticultural 

 society and the national flower show. Mr. 

 Cowell gave an excellent talk on both sub- 

 jects. 



Everybody was satisfied with results 

 and it has since been learned that the 

 society people have spoken of it highly 

 and many expressed their regret in not 

 being able to see it. With the help of » 



few shows of this kind, the people will 

 soon be interested enough to form a 

 society well worthy of the name. 



Various Notes* 



An interesting speaker at the banquet 

 was D. B. Long, who has long since left 

 the business proper, but still is interested 

 enough to take an interest in the shows 

 or other affairs. Mr. Long was the first 

 man to start' in the retail flower store 

 business here. Thirty-six years ago No- 

 vember 20 the two brothers started where 

 S. A. Anderson now has his magnificent 

 store. Mr. Long also spoke of the ad- 

 vancement of the trade since he was in 

 the business. 



C. F. ChVistensen has about cut out of 

 his fam^uft Maud Dean. He had these 



to perfection this year, as the same were 

 displayed at the show. His carnations 

 are in tiptop shape and will have a good 

 cut for the holidays. 



Harry Eckert has opened a flower store 

 on Elmwood avenue. R. A. S. 



Thb adv. in the BiviEW did good work 

 for me. — B. D. Kimball, Waban, Mass. 



Iowa Falls, Ia. — J. P. Murphy, who 

 has been engaged in the florists' business 

 here for several years, has just closed a 

 deal whereby he will come into possession 

 of the plant of a florist at Independence, 

 July 1. It is stated that Miss Smuck, 

 who was formerly in the florists ' business 

 here, will return to Iowa Falls and re- 

 engage in business.
