active members of the society, to pur- 

 chase a blackboard for the use of the 

 members to make known at each meet- 

 ing stock for sale or wanted, was favor- 

 ably received. 



J. St. Mard exhibited a sample of 

 home grown rose plants, demonstrating 

 in his interesting remarks that they can 

 be grown here just as well as elsewhere. 

 He also showed some fine Col. Apple- 

 ton mums. 



Henry Eehfeld brought a branch of a 

 Ponderosa lemon with four huge fruits, 

 cut from a tree 4 years old and five 

 feet high. This species is grown here 

 now more commonly, on account of its 

 decorative and other merits. 



Ben Goertling showed some of the 

 best yellow chrysanthemums seen this 

 season. 



The feature of the evening was the 

 report of Secretary Panter on his 

 trip to San Francisco, with stops 

 at St. Louis, Omaha, Denver, Colorado 

 Springs, Salt Lake City and Los 

 Angeles, returning via Kansas City and 

 St. Louis. He found that New Orleans 

 is, from a horticultural and general 

 commercial standpoint, in line with 

 every city visited and in some re- 

 spects even better. At Denver the 

 beautiful Lorraine begonias of the 

 Park Floral Co. attracted his special 

 attention. On the Pacific coast he 

 found Phoenix Koebelenii practically 

 unknown. From Los Angeles he vis- 

 ited the place of Alfred Boeder, for- 

 merly gardener to the late Mrs. Ida 

 Kichardson, of this city, and was 

 shocked to hear that the owner passed 

 to the great beyond two months ago. 

 He learned from Mrs. Koeder that she 

 intends to maintain the nursery with

proper help until an opportune time of 

 sale. The sad news made a deep im- 

 pression on all of the former friends 

 and colleagues of Mr. Eoeder. At San 

 Francisco, the elegant, large flower 

 stores won his admiration. The abun- 

 dance of locally grown good flowers 

 sold at those stores and at the flower 

 markets at extremely low prices caused 

 him to marvel. Here he found a great 

 demand for all kinds of orchids. 



It was decided to have a display of 

 seasonable plants and flowers at the 

 next meeting, December 15, which will 

 surely arouse a great interest among 

 the members of the society. R. E.

 that business has been particularly 

 good this year, except for a short time 

 in the early fall, when it was dull.
