The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



SEPTEMBER 1, 1S98. 



TORONTO. 



Exhibition excitement is now at 

 about fever heat. The formal opening 

 takes place tomorrow and the boys 

 are all busy taking in their plants to- 

 day. There is every appearance of the 

 horticultural part of the show being 

 larger and better than has been seen 

 here before. Mr. W. Scott, ct Buffalo, 

 is to judge the plants this year instead 

 of cut flowers, etc. His job will be no 

 soft snap. 



The Canadian Horticultural Associa- 

 tion (not Society) convention will be 

 held in St. George's Hall on Wednes- 

 day the 7th of September, and in the 

 Administration building at the Expo- 

 sition grounds on the 8th. The 

 program has been published and 

 has an attractive appearance at any 

 rate. It is to be hoped that there wiil 

 be a good turnout of the profession 

 and those interested, so that the asso- 

 ciation may be given a good sendotf at 

 this its first real regular meeting. 



The Horticultural Society had its 

 weekly outing last Wednesday and met 

 at the Steele Briggs Seed Co.'s green- 

 houses. King St., E. About a dozen 

 were present and spent a most enjoya- 

 ble and instructive afternoon. Mr. 

 John Riggall, the foreman, and Mr. 

 S. E. Briggs showed the company 

 around the greenhouses and trial 

 grounds. The former must be congrat- 

 ulated on the high state of order and 

 cultivation of everything both inside 

 and out. And the thanks of the so- 

 ciety are due to the latter for his 

 kindly reception of those who were 

 lucky enough to be present. 



Carnation planting is well under way 

 now and in many places finished. The 

 weather lately has been a little more 

 favorable, there having been some 

 rain. The plants in the majority of 

 cases were in very good shape for mov- 

 ing and should come along well. 



DELAWARE, 0.— Jos. H. Cunning- 

 ham lost 150 square feet of glass by 

 hail, Aug. 16. Loss was covered by in- 

 surance in the Hail Association.
