The Weekly Florists' Review, 



January 22. 1903. 



UTICA, N. Y. 



Tlie regular meeting of the Utica 

 Florists' Club was held at its rooms, 

 Mannerehor building, January 8, with a 

 verj' fair attendance, although several of 

 the boys were on the sick list. It was 

 decided to have our next meeting, Feb- 

 ruary 5, a carnation meeting, and the 

 club will be very much pleased to receive 

 any of the new carnations. If sent to 

 J. C. Spencer, secretary, 111 Oneida 

 street, Utica, N. Y., he will see that they 

 are well displayed and due notice given 

 of them. 



Our Prof. Geo. 0. Hodges gave us a 

 very interesting description of his trip 

 to Florida during the holidays, which 

 was more than enjoyed, and the boys who 

 were not at the Tneeting do not know 

 what they missed, as what he did not 

 see would not be worth looking at. One 

 thing I wish to mention, which is the 

 nearest thing to our hearts these cold 

 days, and that is that he stood on the 

 place where some of our future coal is 

 to come from. In fact, his description 

 of everything was fine. When he said he 

 was in swimming on Christmas day and 

 lay on the sand, we all wished we were 

 there. We are in hopes the professor 

 will take another trip soon. It certainly 

 is the next best thing to going yourself 

 to hear his description. 



Our next meeting will end with a 

 smoker and we want all the boys to 

 come. 



Bowline. 



The Utica bowlers turned out in good 

 numbers, and although the scores were 

 low, we had a very pleasant evening. 

 Perhaps the most sport was in the last 

 game, where cverj-thing was reversed and 

 the lowest man was highest. It would 

 have pleased you to see the boys try to 

 pick off the side pins and go in the gut- 

 ter, which counted ten. We will not 

 dare to give the score of this game. Fol- 

 lowing is the score of the two games 

 rolled straight:

CROMWELL, CONN. 



Mr. R. G. Ludwig. b<iokkcci)er for A. 

 N. Pierson, left on Monday for a week's 

 trip through western Massachusetts and 

 New York state in the interests of the 

 firm. Grafted roses, palms and carna- 

 tion stock are to be given special con- 

 sideration. 



Orders for stock of carnations have 

 been coming in very fast and two of the 

 best sellers seem to be Governor Wolcott 

 and Dorothy. Of the latter kind we in- 

 tend to bench several thousand and are 

 obliged to refuse orders for it constantly. 



Among recent visitors are W. S. Allen, 

 of New York; Mi-. Boddington, of New 

 York; Julius Eoehrs, of Rutherford, N. 

 J.; T. Malbranc, of Johnstown, Pa., and 

 A. Squires, of Waugatuck.

 will also do landscape gardening.
