Gasser Co., Cleve- land, moved that the meeting form a temporary organization of growers and elect officers to perfect the plans for the association by the time of the S. A. F. convention in Cleveland next August. The strong chorus of ayes which greeted the motion when it was put by Mr. Am- mann as chairman of the meeting was sufficient to convince anyone of the fervid favor of the growers. Thereupon it was decided to elect of- ficers. The first nomination for presi- dent was Mr. Ammann, whose name was greeted with loud acclaim. But since he had volunteered to undertake the oner- ous task of secretary, it was deemed wise to save him for that office and choose another president. August Poehl- mann declined nomination, on account of the press of other duties. F. C. W. Brown was thereupon proposed and said he would gladly serve till August if it was the desire of the meeting. It was, and he was at once chosen temporary president of the growers' association. In addition to the president and sec- retary, three additional growers were chosen to serve on the executive board, representing different sections of the country. These were C. E. Gullett, of Lincoln, 111.; Wallace E. Pierson, of Cromwell, Conn., and Robert C. Kerr, of Houston, Tex. Upon the adjournment of the meeting petitions were presented for growers' signing and the list of names in the pos- session of Mr. Ammann has been rapidly growing since. The first meeting of the organization will be held at Cleveland, one day being set aside for the growers at the S. A. F. convention next August. !f;?g^i;a^t^iXf^tAg^[jgJjtA8^1^l>jgilt>8^t^g^ CARNATION CONVENTION CLOSES r;«vir?svir«\irrsvirirsvir)«v]ri«\irrsvir!ravir?s\ir?svi^ DISCUSS ORADINQ BLOOMS.
