WOMEN^ GROWING PROJECT. 



The women's flower growing project 

 which has been so much talked of by San 

 Francisco papers, while never taken very 

 seriously by those in the trade, appears 

 to have encountered difficulties rather 

 early in its career, as witness the follow- 

 ing from the Post of April 18: 



"Directors and officers of the fashion- 

 able California Flower and Plant So- 

 ciety have scattered to the four winds, 

 leaving Mrs. Thomas H. Stevenson, presi- 

 dent, in full possession. The society was 

 incorporated about one month ago. The 

 incorporators, with the exception of Mrs. 

 Stevenson, were of the opinion that the 

 mission of the society was to grow 

 orchids, American Beauty roses and other 

 flowers to be sold merely at cost, and to 

 revive the old-fashioned flowers of our 

 grandmothers. They considered the so- 

 ciety a sort of floral philanthropy, a 

 something that would do some good to 

 the poor of the world, as well as to those 

 lovers of flowers who are not so poor. 

 The claim is made that Mrs. Stevenson 

 did not care to waste her time — that the 

 society meant business to her, especially 

 as her husband is in the retail flower 

 businiess. The directors had ways of 

 their own by which the flowe'ts could be 

 disposed of,, but tiie claim is made Mrs. 

 Stevenson wished them disposed of 

 through her husband's store.

"Therefore, the directors and their 

 money and social prestige dropped out 

 of the society, leaving Mrs. Stevenson 

 in possession. That there was a quarrel 

 among the vromen is BtrenuouBly denied 

 by every one concerned. They simply 

 agreed to disagree, and the resignations 

 followed. ' '
