The Florists^ Review 



Fbbsuaby 10, 1916. 



NEW BEDFORD, IV^SS. 



The Market. 



Business certainly was active last 

 week. A charity ball furnished an op- 

 portunity for the designers to show 

 what they could do in the way of cor- 

 sages, etc. 



Various Notes. 



Julius, of the Flower Mart, was one 

 of the ushers at the charity ball last 

 week. 



W. H. Davenport reports business as 

 being particularly good at his new 

 stand. 



Williams Bros, had an unusually busy 

 week of funeral work, 



A recent visit to the S. E. Shaw 

 greenhouses found everything in first- 

 class condition,. A large house of sweet 

 peas was in splendid crop. A house of 

 carnations left nothing to be desired. 

 Gorgeous was particularly good, having 

 stems up to three and one-half feet long. 

 Mr. Shaw also grows, in smaller quan- 

 tities, pansies, calendulas, centaureas 

 and callas. 



Post & Gray furnished a large deco- 

 ration for the Mt. Carmel church last 

 week. 



I visited the greenhouses of the King- 

 ston Giirdens, at Kingston, Mass., last 

 week, where Henry J. Walsh is the 

 grower. Stock was in first-class condi- 

 tion. There was a wonderful crop of 

 sweet peas and violets. His carnations 

 also were of exceptional quality. 



W. M. P. 



Crookston, Minn. — "He grows every 

 one of his flowers in Crookston, Polk 

 county, Minnesota, and is doing this 

 city and cummunity a distinctive serv- 

 ive." The foregoing unsolicited words 

 of praise were awarded Edward Schus- 

 ter in a recent issue of the Daily Times. 

 They appeared at the end of a first- 

 page news article descriptive of the 

 Schuster greenhouses. Acquring the 

 property a little more than six months 

 ago, Mr. Schuster has transformed it 

 into a veritable beauty spot that has 

 attracted many visitors and consider- 

 able extra custom.
