J. St. Mard exhibited a sample of home grown rose plants, demonstrating in his interesting remarks that they can be grown here just as well as elsewhere. He also showed some fine Col. Apple- ton mums. Henry Eehfeld brought a branch of a Ponderosa lemon with four huge fruits, cut from a tree 4 years old and five feet high. This species is grown here now more commonly, on account of its decorative and other merits. Ben Goertling showed some of the best yellow chrysanthemums seen this season. The feature of the evening was the report of Secretary Panter on his trip to San Francisco, with stops at St. Louis, Omaha, Denver, Colorado Springs, Salt Lake City and Los Angeles, returning via Kansas City and St. Louis. He found that New Orleans is, from a horticultural and general commercial standpoint, in line with every city visited and in some re- spects even better. At Denver the beautiful Lorraine begonias of the Park Floral Co. attracted his special attention. On the Pacific coast he found Phoenix Koebelenii practically unknown. From Los Angeles he vis- ited the place of Alfred Boeder, for- merly gardener to the late Mrs. Ida Kichardson, of this city, and was shocked to hear that the owner passed to the great beyond two months ago.

The sad news made a deep im- pression on all of the former friends and colleagues of Mr. Eoeder. At San Francisco, the elegant, large flower stores won his admiration. The abun- dance of locally grown good flowers sold at those stores and at the flower markets at extremely low prices caused him to marvel. Here he found a great demand for all kinds of orchids. It was decided to have a display of seasonable plants and flowers at the next meeting, December 15, which will surely arouse a great interest among the members of the society. R. E. Shelbyville, HI.—E. M. Harwood is building an additional house. He says that business has been particularly good this year, except for a short time in the early fall, when it was dull.
