The Weekly Florists' Review. 



MAT 3, 1900. 



DENVER, COLO. 



I send you some scores rolled at the 

 last club roll by Denver bowlers that 

 I think will knock your eye out. There 

 were only two of us at the alleys that 

 night, but we rolled our usual three 

 games just the same. 



I got 224 the first game, 234 the sec- 

 ond game, and started oft the third 

 game with a strike, but got a spare 

 in the second frame and then finished 

 up with ten strikes, giving me 280 to- 

 tal. Now these scores won't look 

 right in the paper. I know, but to sat- 

 isfy the florists' bowlers throughout 

 the country will say that the alleys are 

 regulation in length but are six inches 

 narrower than they should be. Could 

 we be guaranteed such alleys at New 

 York, I think it would be no trouble 

 to get si.x men to make the trip, for 

 surelv I think we could land the prize.

ROCKFORD. ILL.— W. Hizer opeu- 

 ed a down-town store at 115 W. State 

 street, April 10. He reports an excel- 

 lent Easter trade and feels he has 

 made no mistake in opening a down- 

 town salesroom. He will add some 

 new glass to his greenhouse plant this 

 summer. 



MESSRS. Bobbink & Atkins, Ruth- 

 erford, N. J., have received a very 

 large shipment from Europe, includ- 

 ing 600 Bay trees, 150 cases fleus cut- 

 tings, 100 cases palms, araucarias, 

 etc. It occupied the entire fore part 

 of the steamer. The lot of Bay trees 

 is especially fine. 



A GERMAN EXHIBITION OF THE 

 FLORISTS' ART.— We are informed 

 by the president of the committee. Dr. 

 M. Schmidt-Metzler. that it is intend- 

 ed to hold a general exhibition of ob- 

 jects of the florists' art — cut blooms 

 and articles used in the work of a flor- 

 ist — in the Palm Garden, Frankfort- 

 on-the-Main, on June 23, 24 and 25, 

 1900. The exhibition is the outcome 

 of a desire on the part of professional 

 and amateurist patrons of the busi- 

 ness, which has greatly increased as 

 an industry in Germany as elsewhere, 

 to afford the general public a collect- 

 ive idea of the florists' art of the pres- 

 ent day, and of its capabilities. The 

 exhibition will cover the entire area 

 of the florists' industry, such as the 

 decoration of saloons and apartments; 

 the flowers and greenery necessary in 

 carrying out different descriptions of 

 decoration, baskets, china, glass and 

 other objects used in the work, being 

 of German origin. Frankfort has long 

 possessed a reputation for excellence 

 in the florists' art, and it is hoped that 

 an exhibition in that town will lead to 

 an improved taste being displayed in 

 other parts of the country. A large 

 number of prizes in money, as well as 

 gold and silver medals, will be award- 

 ed to competitors.
