The Weekly Florists^ Review^ 



May 11, 1911. 



INDIAN AFOUS. 



A Visit to Anderson. 



Tuesday, May 2, about twenty of the 

 Indianapolis florists went to Anderson 

 to attend the monthly meetliig of the 

 State Florists' Association, which was 

 held there upon the invitation of Stuart 

 & Haugh. The party left on the 2 o 'clock 

 interurban car, arriving at four p. m., 

 and was met at the station by Messrs. 

 Stuart and Haugh and a number of 

 florists from the surrounding towns and 

 escorted to the Stuart & Haugh green- 

 houses. This was probably the first 

 visit to Anderson, for most of the 

 florists, since Stuart & Haugh rebuilt 

 their greenhouses, and everything was 

 found in apple-pie order, the stock 

 being of high class, particularly the 

 carnations, which were unusually fine. 

 The new range of glass is certainly a 

 big improvement to the place. 



The party then adjourned to the An- 

 derson library, where the meeting was 

 held. After the regular routine of busi- 

 ness, considerable speech-making was 

 indulged in and numerous invitations to 

 the association to hold its meetings in 

 the surrounding cities were given, 

 among them being New Castle, Kich- 

 mond, Knightstown and Cumberland. 

 After the meeting the florists were the 

 guests of Stuart & Haugh at the hotel, 

 where an elaborate spread was served, 

 for which Stuart & Haugh were award- 

 ed a vote of thanks. 



Among the visiting florists attending 

 were: Joseph Hill, J. A. Evans, George 

 Cause, Chas. Jones, of Eichmond; Myer 

 Heller, of New Castle; B. F. Hensley, 

 of Knightstown; Robt. McKeand, of 

 Marion; Mr. Maxiner, of Alexandria; 

 Ira Clark, of Greensburg; M. A. Bar- 

 ick, of Seymour; Ray Newcomb, of
