NEW ORLEANf."' ' ;,^ ' 



The Situation in Mtmsii 



We are passing now through the In- 

 dian summer, which ia ideal weather in 

 New Orleans, and, aside from a few 

 showers, the chrysanthemums have every 

 chance to open nicely. As previously re- 

 ported, there will be some fine flowers 

 this year, but not in excess by any means, 

 and price and demand will be good. 



John St. Mard, who last year was al- 

 most prevented from growing mums on 

 account of fire on his place, is again to 

 the front with a well grown patch of 

 Mrs. H. Eobinson and H. Gannell. 



Herman Doescher has a few plants and 

 complains of lateness in the opening of 

 the buds, due to the check they received 

 during the last storm. He will still cut 

 a good average. 



Abele Bros., judging from samples they 

 had on hand at the dub meeting, will 

 have perfect flowers. They are clean, 

 pure white and well developed already. 



(Hub Meeting. 



Thursday, October 21, the Florists' So- 

 ciety had its regular monthly meeting. 

 President A. Alost presented for discus- 

 sion his idea of the society building a 

 club house on the lake shore. This prop- 

 osition seems to meet with the approval 

 of the majority of the members. A com- 

 mittee of five was appointed to report on 

 the subject. .John St. Mard suggested 

 that some of the surplus money in the 

 treasury should be invested in this prop- 

 erty, to the advantage of everybody. 



On the exhibition table was a fine 

 plant of Phoenix Eoebelenii from U. J. 

 Virgin. Eichard Eichling called the at- 

 tention of the members to the size of 

 the plant, a two-year-old specimen, claim- 

 ing that there is money in it,

James A. Newsham is giving the last 

 touch to his chrysanthemums and to an 

 up-to-date store in front of his place. 

 The whole front and part of the sides of 

 the store are plate glass. It has a ce- 

 ment floor, is hard oil finished inside and 

 contains a first-class refrigerator and 

 every modern convenience. 



Harry Papworth invited the Florists' 

 Society and the public in general to in- 

 spect the Metairie Ridge Nursery on Sun- 

 day, October 24. He is a large grower
