Apbil 4, 1912. 



DAVENPOBT, lA. 



That florists should wear a bouton- 

 niere of any flow^er from a carnation 

 to an orchid as a boost for trade and 

 a badge of the profession was the rec- 

 ommendation made by President P. J. 

 Foley, of the Chicago Florists' Club, 

 at the annual banquet of the Tri-City 

 Florists' Association, held in the Outing 

 Club March 28. 



Following a sumptuous repast the 

 speaking program commenced, Presi- 

 dent Theodore Ewoldt officiating as 

 toastmaster. President Foley, who told 

 of several ways in which the profes- 

 sion might be advertised; J. C. Vaughan, 

 who complimented the local association 

 on the harmony prevailing among the 

 members; Michael Barker, who told of 

 the activities of the florists' publications 

 in promoting greater harmony among 

 flower growers, and "Wesley Green, of 

 Des Moines, formerly of Davenport, and 

 one of the oldest florists in the state, 

 were the speakers from outside of the 

 Tri-Cities. J. S. Wilson, of Des Moines, 

 one of the speakers expected, was un- 

 able to be present. J. W. Davis, John 

 T. Temple and President Ewoldt were 

 among the local speakers. 



The floral decorations were among 

 the most elaborate and beautiful seen 

 here in many years, all of the mem- 

 bers of the association sending dona- 

 tions of their best flowers and many 

 floral firms outside of the Tri-Cities hav- 

 ing exhibits. The tables, at which cov- 

 ers were laid for over fifty, were ar- 

 ranged in the form of a horseshoe and 

 so crowded with flowers that there was 

 scarcely room for the service. Note- 

 worthy among the exhibits of outside 

 florists was that of Baur & Steinkamp, 

 Indianapolis, who displayed St. Nicholas 

 'Carnation. 



Following the banquet and the speak- 

 ing, dancing was enjoyed. 



Schnectady, N. Y.— J. E. Felthousen, 

 a prominent grower of bedding stock, 

 will have his usual extensive stock in 

 fine shape for spring. E. V. B. Felt- 

 housen is a large grower of lilies and 

 reports an unusually clean stock for 

 Easter trade.
