The Weekly Florists^ Review. 



FEBRUARY 23, 1S99. 



BERLIN, ONT. 



"Now is the winter of our discon- 

 tent." Tlie thermometer has gone 

 down below zero to stay for the rest 

 of the winter, the newspapers have 

 stereotyped the line, "Fair and very 

 cold today and tomorrow," the coal 

 pile that was going to last till spring 

 will have been reduced to microscop- 

 ic dimensions next week, the profits 

 made at Christmas time have gone up 

 in smoke, customers don't put their 

 nose outside the door, the florist looks 

 glum and sleepy eyed, his wad has 

 nearly reached the vanishing point, 

 the coal man has a smile on him like 

 a Cheshire cat, etc., etc. They do say, 

 however, that we shall have some mild 

 weather in July; that is a consolation 

 and something to look forward to with 

 thankfulness. 



Trade in this town is very slow and 

 jerky; an occasional party or funeral 

 is all there is to enliven the general 

 dullness. Some one, however, must be 

 doing a good trade, as I notice that the 

 wholesale men have put up the price 

 of roses a couple of dollars, owing to 

 the deniand. Harry Dale says that 

 the demand for white flowers since 

 New Year's has been enormous, and 

 it has taxed his big place to its ut- 

 most to supply it. Down at his place 

 the other day 1 was initiated to the 

 mysteries of the King automatic sto- 

 ker, which he has attached to all his 

 boilers. The boiler room is a sight 

 worth seeing at night, everything ap- 

 pearing to work like a charm. Mr. 

 Dale's place is now so well known that 

 I need not dilate at length on its ex- 

 tent; suffice it to say that everything 

 was flourishing and in first class or- 

 der.
