These large consignments had to be disposed of and prices kept going down to almost nothing. Club Meeting. The St. Louis Florists' Club held its regular monthly meeting on Thursday afternoon, April 11, in Odd Fellows' hall. The meeting was poorly attended, owing to the fact that many were too busy with planting. When President Windier called the meeting to order there were only fourteen present. The trustees reported that the last exhibition of the club, held at Kuehn's wholesale house, was a big success, and they advised that the club give another exhibition in the fall and one in mid- winter. A vote of thanks was extended to C. A. Kuehn for the use of his show room for the exhibition. All other business of importance was laid over until the May meeting, when a larger attendance is expected. Treasurer Smith reported that the club's finances were in a healthy con- dition. E, W. Guy, of Belleville, was pres- ent and was requested to lead a discus- sion on '' Summer Cut Flowers,'' which was much enjoyed. Messrs. Sander, Fillmore, Pilcher, Windier, Bergster- mann and Ogle took part in the dis- cussion and some interesting facts were brought out during the hours of talk. The president announced that at the May meeting J. F. Ammann, of Ed- wardsville, would lead a discussion on ^'Eelations of the Wholesaler, Eetailer and ; In this he will be as- sisted by A. S. Halstead for the grower, Otto Sander for the retailer and William C. Smith for the whole- saler. This promises to be one of the most interesting discussions on the pro- gram and the men selected for the purpose know well how to talk on these points. This meeting will take place on Thursday afternoon. M
