Club Meetui£. 



The March meeting of the Florists' 

 (Jlub was largely attended, nearly 100 

 members being present. Harry Turner 

 occupied the president's chair. All rou- 

 tine business, on motion of C. B. Weath- 

 ered and F. H. Traendly, was suspended. 

 The sudden death of President E. V. Hal- 

 lock, Tuesday, March 2, weighed heavily 

 on the club members and the evening was 

 one of sadness and expression of sym- 

 ])athy for the bereaved. Feeling ad- 

 dresses were made by Harry Turner, 

 Patrick O'Mara, Benjamin Hammond, 

 Isaac Hendrickson, F. H. Traendly and 

 C. H. Totty. These were reminiscent and 

 covered twenty years of fellowship and 

 affectionate esteem. Mr. Hallock 's charm- 

 ing personality, his devotion to the inter- 

 ests of horticulture, to the school gar- 

 dens, and especially his earnest loyalty to 

 the club of which he was so proud, were 

 the themes of those who paid loving 

 tribute to his memory. Resolutions on 

 liis death were read by W. F. Sheridan 

 and adopted by the club. 



A grand exhibit of roses was staged, 

 but the report of the committee on 

 awards was held over until the April 

 meeting of the club and adjournment 

 was made early, with no business consid- 

 ered, out of respect to the memory of the 

 departed president. 



The volume presented by one of the 

 club members for the best new rose of 

 1908 or 1909 introduction was awarded 

 the Waban Rose Conservatories for White 

 Killarney. 



W. A. Manda showed the Cherokee 

 rose, Rosa Sinica, and the South Orange 

 Beauty. A vase of My Maryland came 

 from Myers & Samtman, Philadelphia. 

 Vases of twenty-five Richmond and twen- 

 ty-five Killarney were from A. Faren- 

 wald, Philadelphia. Brides and Maids 

 came from Henry Hentz, Jr. A vase of 

 My Maryland was from A. N. Pierson, 

 Cromwell, Conn. White Killarney was 

 staged by the F. R. Pierson Co., Tarty- 

 town. Bride, Maid and Killarney weVe 

 shown by W. G. Badgley, Chatham. 

 American Beauties were from the Brant- 

 Hentz Flower Co., of Madison, N. J. 

 Chatenay, Mrs. Jardine, Kate Moulton 

 and My Maryland were shown by Robert 



Simpson, Clifton, and a vase of Brides- 

 maid came from V. Hamann, of Summit, 

 N.J. 



The quality of all exhibits was excel- 

 lent and the report of the award commit- 

 tee will doubtless do all the exhibitors 

 full justice. The committee that got 

 together such a display deserves great 

 praise. 



Visitors were H. A. Barnard, of H. 

 Low & Co., England; A. Farenwald. of 

 Philadelphia; Page F. Potter, of Rut- 

 land, Vt. ; W. R. Pierson. Cromwell, 

 Conn.; Wm. Weber, Oakland, Md.; M. 

 Barker, Chicago, and many of the prom- 

 inent rose growers of this vicinity. 



Various Notes. 



H. A. Barnard, representing Hugh Low 

 & Co., Bush Hill Park, England, was in 

 the city last week, and is making a busi- 

 ness tour of the country. 



Considering the inclement weather, 

 Wm. Elliott says his auction sale last 

 week, the first of the season, was more 

 than satisfactory. He considers the out- 

 look for the auction sale of nursery stock 

 as exceptionally good. ''
