The Weekly Florists' Review* 



SEPTEMBER 13, 1900. 



OMAHA. 



Business still remains quite dul, 

 although the past week was better 

 than the preceding one, the improve- 

 ment being caused entirely by funeral 

 work. 



Stock does not seem to improve, 

 but as we are scheduled to have cooler 

 weather from now on (the heat here 

 has been something awful), we shall 

 look for better stock. Most of the 

 grower.s hereabouts are through plant- 

 ing. Carnations are blooming at some 

 places and soon will be at the rest. 

 The reports so far on the condition 

 of the roses are most promising and 

 this season will see the finest stock of 

 all sorts this vicinity has ever seen. 



Omaha is preparing, on a very ex- 

 tensive scale, for the reception to 

 Sampson V., King of Ak Sar Ben. The 

 Grand Festivities and Carnival of Fun 

 will extend from the 24th to the 2Gth 

 of September. 



A. Donaghue, Sr., and son, along 

 with several friends, spent a part of 

 last week bagging prairie chickens in 

 the sand hills northwest of Omaha. 

 They came back with 140 chickens 

 and ducks. J. B. 



PEORIA, ILL. 



Peoria has been about the hottest 

 place in creation for some weeks now, 

 and business has been dull with the 

 exception of a good run of funeral 

 work the latter part of August. 



There is an- abundance of asters 

 and roses just now, also some good 

 American Beauties. Outdoor carna- 

 tions are poor keepers. 



Carnations are all housed every- 

 where here and though not large the 

 plants are healthy. Plantings are 

 about the same as last year. Chry- 

 santhemums promise to be plentiful, 

 with lots of fine pot plants also this 

 fall. 



C. Loveridge's store manager is 

 leaving him. As a hustler after or- 

 ders he could not be beaten, and he 

 will be missed by competitors, who 

 felt quite concerned about the way 

 that quiet seeker cornered the funeral 

 orders. J. R. 



AN ERROR IN AWARDS. 



At New York the judges in one of 

 the classes seem to have accidentally 

 included one firm's exhibit in that of 

 another, and as a result awarded to 

 Mr. R. Dreyer a certificate of merit 

 for "specially well grown cyclamen 

 hybrids," when the plants were shown 

 by Messrs. Letinig & Winnefeld, Hack- 

 ensack, N. J., and the award should 

 have been to the latter. These cycla- 

 men plants, by the way, had foliage 

 that was very beautifully marked and 

 were well worthy of a certificate. The 

 error in name of exhibitor will no 

 doubt be corrected by the executive 

 committee at its next meeting.
