Club Meeting. 



The order shed of the Good & Reese 

 <"'o. was the scene of an animated meet- 

 ing of the Springfield Horists' Club 

 Monday evening, February 13. Geo. H. 

 Mellen and Frank E. Good, of the en- 

 tertainment committee, had provided a 

 spread in numerous courses. The repast 

 was devoured with a zest in semi-picnic 

 fashion, and the remark was freel^- 

 pasped that several members were pres- 

 ent who had not been in attendance 

 since the last "feed." * 



Christian Binning reported progress 

 with the school board and park super- 

 intendent on the project of planting 

 flower beds at the park by the school 

 children under supervision of the prin- 

 cipals. A new suggestion was advanced 

 by Win. H. Reeser, namely, the starting 

 of a rose garden at the park. Capably 

 planned and executed, this would prove 

 the greatest thing yet proposed for the 

 advancement of civic pride and the 

 spreading of the fame of Springfield, 

 the great rose growing center. John 

 M. Good and Wm. H. Reeser were 

 added to this committee, and they will 

 confer with the park board as to pro- 

 curing a landscape gardener familiar 

 with the varieties of outdoor roses to 

 make a systematic plan for an extensive 

 rose garden, and the Florists' Club will 

 stand ready to supply the necessary 

 stock. 



An interesting paper on "Gw?en- 

 house Appliances and Helps" was read 

 by Wm. H. Reeser, who touched upon 

 pot wheelbarrows, dirt wheelbarrows, 

 soil screens and grinders, time-saving 

 hose clips, wire hooks, devices for 

 handling ashes from the cellar, folding 

 racks, iron sand packers, soil and litter 

 carriers, three-step roof-boards, soil 

 sterilizers and numerous other questions 

 of vital interest to the practical green- 

 house man. A quite general discussion 

 followed. 



Frank E. Good and Christian Binning 

 recently visited Cleveland, Painesville 

 and Mentor and gave interesting reports 

 of their observations in this nursery 

 and florists' section. 



A highly creditable showing of speci- 

 mens was made by Charles Unglaub, 

 who exhibited splendid flowering plants 

 of Primula obconica grand iflora and 

 Primula t)bconiea gigantoa of the strain 

 of Ronsdorfer and Lattmann's hybrids. 

 Mr. Unglaub is an enthusiast in his 

 chosen profesf:ion and a lover of the 

 Hew and beautiful in plants.
