a. DREYER, Elmhurst, Long: Island, New York 



'THIS New Fern, when exhibited at the S. A. F. & 0. H. Convention last 

 August, received the following description: "Nephrolepis Dreyerii 

 has many good points which will render it popular. It makes a quick 

 growth, is compact of good color, and stands considerable rough treat* 

 ment, adapting itself to almost any condition. It is of the Scottii type, 

 but not as stiff, the fronds drooping gracefully, giving the plant a very 

 attractive appearance."

The last monthly meeting of the Tri- 

 City Florists' Club was held at the 

 greenhouses of A. Anderson, Ninth 

 street and Eleventh avenue. As this 

 was also the annual meeting, great in- 

 terest was manifested in it, and all the 

 members but one were present. 



The following officers were elected 

 for the ensuing year: 



President — Theo. Ewoldt, of Daven- 

 port. 



Vice-President — John Staack, of this 

 city. 



Treasurer — William Knees, of this city. 



Secretary — John Temple, of Daven- 

 port. 



Financial Secretary — Harry Bills, of 

 Davenport. 



Directors — A. Eckstrom, of this city; 

 Ed. Patton and H. Housley, of Rock 

 Island. 



The banquet committee reported ev- 

 erything in readiness for the annual 

 banquet, which will be held March 23, 

 and will be on a larger scale than ever 

 before. "Greenhouse Construction" 

 was the topic for the evening's dis- 

 cussion, after which a fine supper was 

 served by the host and a social hour 

 was enjoyed.

Bowling. 



Twenty-five members of the Buflfalo 

 Florists' Club visited Rochester on 

 Wednesday evening, March 8, the event 

 being the return game between the Buf- 

 falo and Rochester bowling teams. The 

 visitors were met by a delegation of local 

 florists, including Geo. B. Hart, A. F. 

 Vick, John Dunbar, C. H. Vick and H. 

 B. Stringer. Dinner was served at the 

 Odenbach Hofbrauhaus, with John Dun- 

 bar, superintendent of city parks, as mas- 

 ter of ceremonies. The principal address 

 was made by William F. Kasting, of 

 Buffalo. 



The bowling commenced about 9 o 'clock 

 and the Rochester boys say little about 

 the score. Probably another game will 

 be played in each city before the close 

 of the season.

Carnations 



WHITE HOUSE. The quality white. Won the Silver Cup at Morris- 

 town for best undisseminated variety; Bronze Medal at Pittsburg, and five

 variety that will make good. We have 10,000 for March delivery and that is 

 all we will be in a position to supply of this variety.
