Of Interest to Retail 

 Florists 



The Overbrook Gardens and Straf- 

 ford Flower Farm have been consoli- 

 dated at Strafford. Pa., and will be un- 

 der the supervision of Joseph Russell, 

 who, for the past two years, lias been 

 in charge of Overbrook Gardens. 



Forest Hills Cemetery, Chatanooga, 

 Tenn., announces the opening of the 

 first of a group of up-to-date green 

 houses, scientifically built and fully 

 equipped for first class floral work, 

 under the special direction of G. A. 

 Kimmel. Cut flowers, designs and 

 potted plants will be for sale at the

FLORAL SHOW ROOM. 



In our issue of August 8 we present- 

 ed exterior views of the elaborate flor- 

 al building just completed for F. R. 

 Pierson Co., Tarrytown, N. Y., to- 

 gether with some descriptive notes of 

 the structure and its uses. Our cover 

 illustration in this week's issue shows 

 the view looking out to Broadway 

 from the reception or show room and 

 gives an excellent idea of the grand 

 plate glass windows, each 10 feet 6 

 inches by 14 feet. 



A NEW DEPARTURE. 



Mark Aitken, of Springfield, Mass., 

 is opening a branch store at 418 Main 

 street. It will be known as the Ait- 

 ken Cash Branch, and while it is to be 

 run in connection with the main store 

 at 48 Main street, it will be conducted 

 on an entirely different policy. Mr. 

 Aitken announces that the business 

 transacted there will all be done on a 

 cash basis. One of the greatest items 

 of expense encountered by the average 

 florist is caused by the large demand 

 for special deliveries, and it is Mr. 

 Aitken's intention to do away to a 

 great extent with this feature. Two 

 deliveries will be made each day, the 

 first one to take care of all orders re- 

 ceived up to 11 o'clock in the morning, 

 and the second one during the latter 

 part of the afternoon taking care of all 

 orders after 11 o'clock in the morning. 



In doing away with this item of ex- 

 pense, and by the cash transactions 

 Mr. Aitken announces that he will 

 make a 10 per cent, discount from the 

 regular price at the time of the pur- 

 chase. Special sales will also be con- 

 ducted at frequent intervals.
