The Weekly Florists^ Review^ 



NoVEMBBt 22. 1900. 



LOUISVILLE, KY. 



Various Items. 



Trade lias not picked up and the 

 great talked of prosperity has not struck 

 the florists of this region yet. Lots of 

 flowers on the market. Chrysanthe- 

 mum blooms can be had at any price 

 from 50 cents to $3 a dozen. Pot chrys- 

 anthemums in 7-inch pots sold on All 

 Saints' day as low as four for 25 cents. 

 American Beauties are coming in fine 

 now and Brides and Maids are plentiful 

 and cheap. 



At the meeting of the Kentucky So- 

 ciety of Florists on Nov. 7 the sum of 

 $15 was donated to the unfortunate suf- 

 ferers of Galveston. 



Jacob Schultz gave a chrysanthemum 

 show at his store on Fourth avenue from 

 the 14th to 17th. The store was beauti- 

 fully decorated with palms, southern 

 smilax and Boston ferns. The standard 

 chrysanthemums were fine; the cut 

 blooms grand. The varieties were: Mrs. 

 Perrin, Modesto, C4olden Wedding, Queen, 

 and Mrs. Robinson. Some fine Golden 

 Gate roses and some very fine carnations 

 were also on exhibition. The show was a 

 success. 



Nanz & Neuner also gave a very fine 

 show at their store on Fourth avenue. 

 The interior of the store was beautifully 

 decorated. The cut blooms of chrysan- 

 themums were grand and their American 

 Beauties were fine. 



Mr. Mann has just completed putting 

 in a new boiler. His carnations are a 

 wonder. 



Jos. Coenen has been on the sick list 

 but is now out and attending to business. 



Wm. Walker has for some time had a 

 very bad hand, caused by a cut from a 

 piece of glass. 



HENRY LICHTEFELD. 



MRS. HARRIS SENDS THANKS. 



Mrs. J. L. Harris, formerly of Galves- 

 ton but now at Jonesboro, Ark., writes: 

 "Will you kindly announce in the Re- 

 view that I have received from the Gal- 

 veston Florists' Relief Fund the sum of 

 $18.57; also from Mrs. Chas. Eickholt 

 the sum of $32.18, her share of the 

 fund, which she was generous enough 

 to turn over to me though she was 

 herself a heavy loser through the great 

 storm. To both the Chicago florists and 

 Mrs. Eickholt I tender my heartfelt 

 thanks and best wishes." 



Mrs. Harris recently sent the Review 

 a photograph of the spot in Galveston 

 where her establishment had stood. 

 There was really nothing left, the 

 ground being left quite bare. Evidently 

 the location caught the full force of the 

 waters. 



CASHING CHECKS. 



We note several reports in the daily 

 papers about florists being victimized by 

 cashing checks for customers. It is cer- 

 tainly reckless to accept checks from 

 strangers, especially when the check 

 calls for a larger amount than the pur- 

 chase and the "change" must be given in 

 cash.
