The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



AUG "ST U, 1S9S. 



CLEVELAND. 



The Market. 



The condition of the cut flower trade 

 remains about the same. There is 

 nothing doing at the stores except 

 some house cleaning. 



A Nuisance. 



Florists are expressing themselves 

 quite freely on the subject of crepe 

 chasing, as this city is infested with 

 some of those individuals. One of the 

 craft has the art down to perfection. 

 When the morning paper arrives, be- 

 fore most florists are at their stores, 

 he makes a note of the death notices. 

 'Mr. Florist does the East side, Mrs. 

 Florist does the West side. This is 

 not the worst part of it. Each is armed 

 with a catalogue, such as is issued by 

 Mr. Long. They show this to the 

 prospective customer, the prices and 

 cut of the different designs as quoted 

 in catalogue, and tell them these are 

 the prices of the other florists, gener- 

 ally naming a leading florist. They 

 say they will make up the ;ame work 

 for one-half or one-third less than 

 quoted. One leading florist will prose- 

 cute if some one can tell him how. 

 Others are in favor of organizing a 

 white cap committee. 



Notes. 



The Florist Club had a meeting 

 Mondav, only nine members being 

 present. It "looks as if Cleveland 

 would not have more than six or seven 

 representatives at Omaha. 



Mr. L. Forebach, with J. H. Reb- 

 stock, Buffalo, is visiting here this 



Mr. James T. Aldous, formerly with 

 J. M. Gasser, of this city, is now with 

 A. L. Thrall, Buffalo. He has the best 

 wishes of his fellow craftsmen of 

 Cleveland. 



James Eadie will have a swell, up- 

 to-date store by September 1. The old 

 store has been remodeled and has one 

 of the latest windows. Mis? Eadie 

 promises to make things lively for the 

 other florists on the avenue in the way 

 of window trimming. O. A. C. 0. 



LOUISVILLE. KY. 

 Mr. Alex. Gait Robinson has been 

 elected a director and the general man- 

 ager of the Louisville Spirit Cured To- 

 bacco Co., manufacturers of the Rose 

 Leaf tobacco extract now so largely 

 used by florists. Mr. Robinson has for 

 many years had charge of the extract 

 department of the company's business 

 and has made a host of friends among 

 the florists of the country, all of whom 

 will be greatly pleased to hear of his 

 advancement. 



IF YOU have anything to offer to 

 the trade you will want an adv. in our 

 Convention Number to be issued next 

 week. Send order and copy at once or 

 you will be too late.
