The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



AUGUST a, 1900. 



BUFFALO TO NEW YORK. 



While we are assured of a good 

 delegation from our city to tlie con- 

 vention, it will, from various causes, 

 l)e unlikely that we shall all travel 

 by one route. The N. Y. C. & H. R. R., 

 the Erie, the Delaware & Lackawanna! 

 and the Lehigh Valley, all have even- 

 ing trains which reach New York 

 about 7 a. m., and all give the one- 

 third rate on return on the certificate 

 plan. The fare and a third on the 

 New York Central is $12.33. On the 

 other roads it is $10.70. Obtain your 

 tickets a few hours in advance, as it 

 takes time for the agent to fill out the 

 certificate. 



The Chicago delegation have char- 

 tered a special train and have kindlv 

 invited the Buffalo delegates to join 

 them. There will be a day coach at- 

 tached to the train which will leave 

 Buffalo at 10:20 a. m., Monday, Aug- 

 ust 20th, arriving in New York at 9 

 p. m. Anyone wishing to join the 

 Chicago party will please notify Wil- 

 liam Scott, Main and Balcom Sts., not 

 later than Friday. August 17th.

Committee. 



MILWAUKEE. 



Business is fair, considering the 

 season, and good quality of stock finds 

 a ready market, but poor and inferior 

 grades are kept moving at any price. 

 In outdoor stock, sweet peas, asters 

 and gladiolus predominate, and only 

 the choicest bring a respectable price. 

 Carnations and Beauties of good qual- 

 ity are scarce. 



Park Superintendent Klokuer is get- 

 ting the parks in fine shape. A 200- 

 foot pansy bed in Lake Park, filled 

 with the choicest strains, is much ad- 

 mired by the visitors. 



Some building is being done. C. C. 

 PoUworth Co. have added a new house 

 for the growing of ferns, and William 

 Edlefsen has a palm house under con- 

 struction. Fred Schmeling and H. 

 Schwebke have just received their 

 material for the erection of several 

 houses each. 



It is expected that C. C. Pollworth, 

 C. B. Whitnall. H. Hunkel, William 

 Edlefsen, Nick Zweifel. A. Klokner. W. 

 A. Kennedy and E. Haentze will at- 

 tend the convention from here. A 

 bowling team will be entered and if 

 competition is the life of business they 

 expect to make it lively and set the 

 pace for Chicago, so it they fail to 

 land the cups they ought to land the 

 convention for 1901. GEO. W. 



NEPHROLEPIS WITTBOLDII. 



This splendid new nephrolepis, 

 which originated with the Geo. Witt- 

 bold Co., Chicago, is redeeming its 

 early promises and will without doubt 

 be a prominent factor in the trade 

 when introduced. It is a big advance 

 on the Boston fern in many ways.
