The Weekly Florists' Review. 



April 17. 1902. 



A TOUCHY GREEK. 



In the Chicago notes in our last issue 

 we printed this : 



That there are weak spots in the Beauty mar- 

 ket is evidenced by the fact that very good 

 Beanties are being retailed by some of the 

 Greeks at $3.0U. 



And it has been taken as a "sarcastic 

 reference" by the party whose communi- 

 cation appears below: 



Editor Florists' Review: In your Issue of 

 April 10th I noticed your sarcastic reference 

 to the "Greeks" selling long-stemmed American 

 Beauties at $^.00 per dozen. I take this as a 

 personal slur and can't understand why you per- 

 mit such feather-brained statements to appear 

 in your paper. If I wish to give the public an 

 opportunity to enjoy a handsome flower at a 

 reasonable price, it does not concern anyone. 

 Wh.r not refer to florists of other nationalities 

 in future, as the Swedes are doing so, or the 

 Bohemians, etc.. etc.? Such business methods 

 are unworthy of any respect. Please consider 

 this matter and you will find that I am justified 

 in maliiug these statements. 



T. D. MOSCONESOTES. 



As the party takes the "sarcastic ref- 

 erence" as a "personal slur," he evidently 

 considers himself the only Greek in Chi- 

 cago. We hasten to assure him that 

 there are others — quite several others. 

 Some very good people, too. He ought 

 to get acquainted with them. 



THRIPS. 



In view of the numerous reports of 

 damage by thrips and believing that the 

 fullest information possible regarding 

 this pest should be in the possession of 

 every grower, we requested Prof. F. H. 

 Chittenden, of the Division of Entomol- 

 ogy, Department of Agriculture, Wash- 

 ington, D. C, to prepare an article em- 

 bodying all that is known regarding this 

 insect, which is so difficult to combat suc- 

 cessfully. 



This article, which was prepared espe- 

 cially for the Review, appears in this is- 

 sue, and Mr. Chittenden writes: "There 

 has never been brought together, to my 

 knowledge, so comprehensive a popular 

 article on this insect. I have consulted 

 all of our divisional records of import- 

 ance as well as literature bearing upon 

 the subject, and have submitted the man- 

 uscript to Mr. Th. Pergande, of this 

 office, who is a systematist on the subject 

 of thrips." 



Da\-export, Ia. — Charles Dannacher, 

 who some time ago sold out his business 

 to Otto Klingbeil, has made application 

 to the District Court to foreclose a chat- 

 tel mortgage and for the appointment of 

 a receiver for the business. He states 

 that in November, 1S99, he sold the busi- 

 ness to Mr. Klingbeil for $15,000, the 

 terms being .$1,000 down and 14 notes 

 of $1,000 each, one to mature each year. 

 He retained certain control of the cash 

 receipts of the business to insure pay- 

 ment of the notes, and under certain con- 

 ditions the notes were to be paid before 

 maturity. He claims that these condi- 

 tions have not been met and that he has 

 reason to believe that the defendant con- 

 templates abandoning the business with- 

 out paying the notes and establishing a 

 competing business, regardless of his con- 

 tract. 



Madison, N. J. — The Pierson-Sefton 

 Co. has been incorporated, with principal 

 office here, to cultivate flowers, plants, 

 etc. The capital stock is $85,000 and the 

 incorporators are: Paul M. Pierson, 

 Scarborough, N. Y. ; Lincoln Pierson, 

 Madison, N. .1. ; William Sefton, Jersey 

 City; Louis M. Noe, Madison, N. J.; 

 Charles S. Hunter, New York.
