AURELIAN HYBRID LILIES 
FLOWER CLUBS AND SOCIETIES 
Continued from page 173 
you are unable to attend these affairs, there 
are still such things as Round Robins, 
correspondence with other members, articles 
to be written, organization of local Clubs, in 
fact there is plenty to do if you are inclined 
to help. 
By all means, everyone who is interested 
in flowers should expand their vista, broaden 
their knowledge and contacts, and greatly 
increase their pleasure, by joining their 
flower Society and then become active in 
SOMETHING INTO the Society. 
Editor’s Note: Mr. Welch has given a good 
sales talk for Garden Societies and Clubs, 
and I think it should be finished by giving 
a little more information and as he is espec- 
ially interested in Iris and is writing a column 
in SAIER’S GARDEN MAGAZINE each 
month. Those interested in joining the 
American Iris Society should address them 
at 444 Chestnut Street, Nashville, 10, Tenn.

It is simply impossible to germinate 
many seeds without the use of milled 
sphagnum moss. If you were over your 
seed pans all day long as the professional 
grower is you may find you could get along 
without it, but no professional grower 
would fail to have the fine moss on hand. 
It will save many a packet of valuable seed 
from loss due to an hours neglect, that can- 
not be avoided by one having other duties. 
BUSHEL BAGS: $2.25, postpaid. This 
will last the average grower a year.
