Humboldtii are among the recent addi- 

 tions seen. 



Plantsmen are finding a little better 

 demand. Lorraine begonias are seen 

 well flowered and cyclamens have al- 

 ready appeared. 



Club Meeting. 



The club fall season opened Septem- 

 ber 17, when there was an attendance 

 of 200 members, the great attraction 

 being a stereopticon lecture by J. K. M. 

 L. Farquhar, the new S. A. F. presi- 

 dent, who was given an enthusiastic 

 reception. His description of the great 

 London International Show and the pic- 

 tures were full of interest. He also 

 showed many views of Kew, Hampton 

 Court palace, bulbs in Holland and vege- 

 tables in Denmark. He spoke of the 

 necessity of Boston making a strong 

 showing at the National Flower Show 

 at New York next April. 



A communication was read from W. 

 R. Pierson on behalf of a New York 

 Florists' Club committee, asking the 

 local committee on flower publicity to 

 work energetically. Support of the club 

 was heartily pledged. 



The resignation of Thomas Pegler as 

 president was received and accepted 

 with sincere regret, he having the good 

 will of everyone in the club, and it was 

 hoped he could soon return from Bruns- 

 wick, Me., and become actively identi- 

 fied with the club again. 



Six new members were elected. The 

 landscape committee appointed consists 

 of Messrs. Downs, Elliott and Palmer. 

 It was voted to hold a banquet early in 

 November, details to be in the hands of 

 the executive committee. Chrysanthe- 

 mums were designated as the topic for 

 the October meeting.

Exhibits included the new rose, Mi- 

 ladi, from A. N. Pierson, Inc., and W. 

 R. Pierson gave a talk on it. W. W. 

 Edgar Co. showed Chrysanthemum 

 Smith's Advance and Mrs. E. M. Gill 

 staged dahlias. Frederick Coles received 

 a report of merit for Begonia Lloydii. 



Dahlia Exhibition. 



The quality of the flowers at the an- 

 nual dahlia and fruit show September 

 13 to 15 was unusually good, thanks to 

 recent ideal growing weather. Greatest 

 interest centered in the cactus, deco- 

 rative and peony-flowered sections and 

 the crowds of observant visitors showed 

 what a strong popular hold this fall 

 flower has on New England growers. 

 The leading exhibitors and prize win- 

 ners were W. D. Hathaway, J. K. Alex- 

 ander, W. F. Hall, E. W. Ela, A. E. 

 Johnson, W. C. Winter, C^ Lindvall,
