like this it makes all the difference 

 in the world whether crops are just 

 going off or just coming on. With the 

 latter condition, as at present, the 

 growers can do a great deal to stimu- 

 late production. 



Clnb Meeting. 



At its November meeting members 

 of the Florists' Club perpetrated a 

 surprise on H. E. Philpott by present- 

 ing him with gold cuff links, but. fol- 

 lowing his nomination for president, 

 December 1, which was equivalent to 

 election, he completely turned the 

 tables by setting up a course dinner 

 with wine for the fifty members who 

 attended the meeting. After the ban- 

 quet, which took place in the main 

 dining room of the Union hotel. Presi- 

 dent George Asmus officiated as master 

 of ceremonies. He called for speeches 

 by each of those who earlier in the 

 evening had been nominated for office, 

 as follows: 



President— H. E. Philpott. 

 Vice-president — A. C. Kohlbrand. 

 Secretary — A. T. Pyfer. 

 .Treasurer — E. F. Winterson. 

 Trustees — H. N. Bruns, Alex Hen- 

 derson and John P. Degnan. 



Having then arrived at the point 

 where recourse must be had to the 

 laity, he called for other speakers in 

 the following order: H. B. Howard, 

 M. Barker, E. C. Amling, F. Lauten- 

 schlager, F. F. Benthey, L. H. Winter- 

 son and Mike Fink. Miss Kohlbrand, 

 daughter of A. C. Kohlbrand, was pres- 

 ent and her performance on the piano 

 was rewarded by much applause and 

 the presentation of a splendid vase of 

 Washington carnation, with which the 

 Chicago Carnation Co. had graced the 

 table. 



At the business meeting, aside from 

 the nominations, which left no con- 

 tests for the election, only routine 

 work was handled. For the flower 

 booth at the show Mr. Philpott* re- 

 ported a profit of $193.93 and for the 

 restaurant in the basement Alex Hen- 

 derson reported a profit of $103.12. 

 A. 0. Kohlbrand, for the committee on 

 banquet, accounted for some $700 ex- 

 pended for the affair at the La Salle
