port at the next meeting, September 28. 



Professors Aspon and Symons, of Col- 

 lege Park, were present and the former 

 gave an entertaining talk on subjects 

 interesting to the trade in general. Pro- 

 fessor Symons spoke on the annual fall 

 show of the Maryland Horticultural 

 Society, to be held at the Fifth Regi- 

 ment armory, November 17 to 21. He 

 spoke of the favorable progress being 

 made and stated that, as twice the 

 amount of space of former sliows will 

 be given over to the florists' exhibits, a 

 good display will no doubt be made. 



Richard Vincent, Jr., extended a per- 

 sonal invitation to every member of the 

 club to attend the firm's annual dahlia 

 show, to be held at White Marsh, Sep- 

 tember 29 to October 3. A special train 

 will be run from Washington to convey 

 the florists from that city, October 1, 

 and they will be joined on their arrival 

 here by the local club and all will pro- 

 <!eed to the grounds. 



' Various Notes. 



Mr. and Mrs. Wm. J, Jolinston have 

 returned from their annual vacation, 

 spent in the north. 



Lohr & Fritze's new rose liouse is 

 looking fine and gives every indication 

 bf producing a heavy winter cut. 



John P. Willheim, of Pelair road, is 

 erecting a house, 30x200, for carnations. 

 It will be finished in a short time. 



John A. Nuth, of Belair road and 

 Franklin avenue, is working on his new 

 house, but has been delayed because of 

 the non-arrival of some gutters, which 

 were lost in transportation. 



The annual dahlia show of R. Vincent, 

 Jr., & Sons Co. will be held, as usual, 

 at their place at White Marsh, Md., 

 from September 29 to October 3. This 

 is on the line of the Baltimore & Ohio 

 railroad, and trains leave Camden sta- 

 tion for Cowenton, which is the sta- 

 tion nearest to White Marsh, as follows: 

 8:1.') a. m., 12:30 p. m., 2:0/) p. m. and 

 5:00 p. m. Conveyances will meet all

 grounds free. Trains also stop at Mount 

 Royal and Gay street stations, from five

 en above. Trains leave Cowenton for

 dahlias, cannas and geraniums is hardly 

 equaled in the east, if anywhere.
