The Weekly Florists' Review^ 



cut last Saturday and George Murphy 

 has thrown out everything save white, 

 which are in fine demand and bring a 

 good price. 



It is a wonder that more florists, do 

 not make arrangements to have some 

 white carnations to cut at this time of 

 year. There is always a demand for 

 them and prices obtained make them de- 

 cidedly profitable. 



Tuberoses are beginning to come in 

 now and asters will be coming about 

 the last of this week. They will be 

 more than welcome as they will in some 

 respects take the place of carnations. 

 The aster bugs have been at work at 

 some places and these together with the 

 scorching weather have made some aster 

 beds look pretty sick. 



The hot weather still continues, with 

 no relief in sight. It is now some three 

 weeks since we have had a good rain 

 and the ground is baked hard. The 

 country roads are thick with dust and 

 it is anything but a pleasure to have to 

 travel over them. The water supply at 

 several establishments is beginning to 

 give out and the job of hauling water is 

 not to be sought after. 



Letters have been received from a good 

 many out-of-town florists staging their 

 intention of attending the S. A.. F. O. II. 

 convention at Buffalo. Some are already 

 on the way; but they intend to make 

 short visits to some of the lake cit es 

 before arriving at Buffalo. 



The florists' outing takes place on 

 Thursday, the 18th. Some nice prizes 

 are olfered for the difl'erent events and 

 a general good time is expected. 



Mrs. Mary Schwab, one of the oldest 

 of the women florists of this city, died 

 on Thursday of the past week, of dropsy. 

 She was sixty years old and had been 

 in the florist business for twenty-one 

 years. She operated two stores, oiie on 

 Vine street and the other on iwelfth 

 street, iiie Vine street estaldishment 

 she recently sold to Mrs. Thomas, but 

 the Twelfth street place she was still 

 running at the time of her death. She 

 leaves five girls and one boy to whom 

 the sympathy of the craft i's extended. 

 The funeral took place Saturday morn- 

 ing. 



Recent visitors to this city are Mr. 

 John Evans, the ventilator man, and 

 S. S. Skidelsky, of Philadelphia.
