perature falling to 10 degrees above 

 zero several mornings. 



Carnations are improving right along 

 and will soon be at their best. Koses 

 show the effect of the continued cloudy 

 weather, although some fine ones are 

 being shown. Violets are good, but 

 there are not enough as yet to meet 

 the demand. Paper Whites and callas 

 have also put in an appearance, as have 

 a few sweet peas. Stevia will arrive 

 next week, so there is quite a variety 

 to choose from. 



All in all, things are looking a little 

 brighter than they did a few- weeks 

 ago. 



That "No flowers, please" notice 

 at the announcement of deaths is get- 

 ting too "all-fired" frequent. One 

 florist had over $30 worth of work 

 countermanded a few days ago, to say 

 nothing about the rest of the boys. It 

 seems to be becoming a habit. 



Trl-City Club Meeting. 



The November meeting of the Tri- 

 City Florists' Club was held Thursday 

 evening, November 16, at the home of 

 Superintendent C. O. E. Boehm, Daven- 

 port, and was largely attended, all but 

 two of the members being present. The 

 boys went out to the park in the 

 afternoon so as to be able to better 

 judge the different chrysanthemums on 

 exhibition, and a finer sight never met 

 their eyes. Thousands of flowers of all 

 sizes and colors filled the large con- 

 servatories, some ninety different varie- 

 ties being grown here. Mr. Boehm keeps 

 the varieties as up-to-date as possible 

 and this is where the boys get an idea 

 as to the merits of the newer varieties. 

 The best thing the writer can say about 

 the show at the park is that it is up 

 to the high standard that has been set 

 ever since Superintendent Boehm took 



charge. 



"Carnations, Indoor Culture and Hy- 

 bridizing" was the evening's topic and 

 A. Anderson, of Moline, who has been 

 decidedly successful along this line, 

 gave as interesting and instructive a 

 talk on the hybridizing of carnations 

 as had ever been heard by any of the 

 members present. It was, no doubt, 

 the best lecture ever given by any 

 member of the Tri-City Florists' Club 

 and a vote of thanks was given Mr. 

 Anderson for his valuable paper. Mr. 

 Zimmerman, of the Bock Island parks, 

 was admitted to membership. He is a 

 bachelor, so this brings the Florists' 

 Bachelors' Club up to six. 



Ewoldt Bros, exhibited some choice 

 Shasta carnations, and Mr. Anderson 

 showed some of his choicest seedlings, 

 among them a red that is without doubt 

 the finest carnation ever seen in this 

 part of the country. Mr. Anderson 

 says he will take $40,000 for it. 



After the meeting the club adjourned 

 to the dining room, where a fine, large, 

 hot supper was waiting for the boys, 

 — and say, talk about your feeds !-^ 

 well, the way the boys handled their 

 knives and forks would make one think 

 they hadn't had anything to eat for a 

 month, and I know won't want any- 

 thing for the next three days. If the 

 boys were to be the judges of good 

 cooking, and we know they are good 

 judges, Mrs. Boehm would be wearing 

 a gold medal the size of a dish pan. 



After the boys were sfaie to get up 

 and move away from the table, a social 

 hour was spent in telling ghost stories, 

 and Uncle John, who had been the sex- 

 ton of a cemetery in his early days, told
