which, if this city would maintain it, 

 would give the florists something to do. 

 It was believed, however, that this city, 

 owing to its central location, would get 

 more exhibitors both from the east and 

 west. This kind of a report stirred up 

 considerable enthusiasm and some de- 

 siced to have committees appointed at 

 once, but President Burki held them off 

 until March, to allow him time to select 

 committees of men who expected to work, 

 as they proposed to see Indianapolis and 

 go them some in the next convention. 



The flowers of the evening, carnations, 

 were taken up and discussed. The Fin- 

 leyville Floral Co. showed four vases, 

 and also their white seedling, which will 

 be watched, as something is hoped from 

 it. Hatch, of Allison Park, had four 

 vases. The Pittsburg Rose & Carnation 

 Co. had seven large vases of handsome 

 flowers. All of these carnations were 

 fine and a credit to the various growers, 

 who were all willing to tell all they knew 

 about growing them. 



Frank Cooks, gardener for J. H. Parks, 

 had six pots of freesia. Mr. Madsen, 

 gardener for E. H. Boggs, had a vase 

 of carnations; also one plant each of 

 Primula verticillata, P. floribunda and 

 P. Kewensis. Two of these varieties had 

 never been shown here before and were 

 so fine and well grown that, by way of 

 encouragement to private gardeners, a 

 motion was made to give a gratuity of 

 $5 to Mr. Madsen. 



Various Notes. 



Nearly all of the firms who decorate 

 met at one of the retail stores last Friday 

 evening and took up the matter of cut- 

 ting prices on decorations, which has been 

 quite prevalent, owing to the strong com- 

 petition for that kind of work. While 

 not much could be accomplished, it was 

 agreed that all solicitation should be 

 by letter and no one would call on any- 

 one except by appointment, which would 

 cut out what one man calls "camp- 

 ing on people's doorsteps." Regard- 

 ing prices, that is left to the .iudgment of
