several growers. There is still a fine 

 supply of Lady Lenox cosmos, candy- 

 tuft and bachelor's buttons. 



Cattleya labiata is less abundant, as 

 several growers now have almost fin- 

 ished cutting. Of cypripediums and 

 other orchids there is an adequate sup- 

 ply. Gardenias are still rather scarce; 

 growers complain of buds dropping 

 heavily. There is an improved demand 

 for all kinds of green stock. 



Club Meeting. 



There was an excellent attendance at 

 the club meeting November 19. The 

 speaker of the evening was Professor 

 E. A. White, of the floricultural depart- 

 ment of the Massachusetts Agricultural 

 College, Amherst, on "Education for 

 the Gardener and Florist. ' ' The lecturer 

 read an able paper and brought out his 

 points in a lucid and convincing man- 

 ner. There are some who view college 

 education with suspicion, but Mr. White 

 easily disarmed all opposition of this 

 sort and had his audience with him 

 from the start. His paper gave rise to 

 an animated discussion, participated in 

 by Messrs. Palmer, Downs, Craig, Cam- 

 eron, Finlaysoh, Holmes and Westwood. 

 A rising vote of thanks was tendered 

 the lecturer at the close. 



The banquet committee made a most 

 satisfactory report, all bills being paid 

 and a small balance on hand. 



Nominations for officers for 1913 were 

 made as follows: President, W. J. Ken- 

 nedy; vice-president, H. H. Bartsch and 

 Eber Holmes; secretary, W. N. Craig; 

 treasurer, Peter Fisher; executive com- 

 mittee, John Reid, W. J. Patterson, F. 

 E. Palmer, Henry Penn, D. Finlayson, 

 A. K. Eogers, J. Van Leeuwen, E. S. 

 Edgar, P. M. Miller, J. L. Miller, J. 

 Lawson and W. C. Rust. 



F. E. Palmer was made chairman of 

 the publicity committee. Mr. Farquhar 

 spoke of his western trip. 



The exhibits of the evening included 

 Winter Cheer begonias from Wm. 

 Downs, awarded a report of merit; a 

 collection of flowering plants from W. 

 W. Edgar Co., finely grown; Carnation 

 Princess Dagmar, from M. A. Patten & 

 Co., awarded a report of merit, and 

 Carnation Gloria, from H. W. Field, 

 awarded a report of merit.
