Tail, of Henry A. Dreer, Ine., and ("larenee Up- ton, (rf. Enfield. After an informal luneh in the grill room, the party adjourned to the Gold room. Lincoln Pierson took the chair and exjdained the object of the meeting in a carefully prepared address. The Xew York growers felt that tlni amount of capital involved in their business de- nianded that they organize for protec- tion. Their object was advertising with a view to stabilizing prices and cooper- ative buying. They wished the assist- ance of all those growers whose jtroduce found its way to the metropolitan dis- trict. They were asking Philadelphia to join them. They were asking Boston to join them. They might ask the grow- ers of carnations and other flowers to join them. While the constitution clearly disavowed any intention of price set- ting, it was evident from the discussion that followed Mr. Pierson's address that the high cost of production made the growers keenly alive to price inequali- ties. The keynote of their problem was that the retailers as a body appeared to aim at small sales and large profits, whereas the growers believed that pres- ent needs would be better met bv large.
