The Horists' Review 



Jolt 20, 1910. 



DAVENPORT, R. ISLAND, MOLINE. 



The Market. 



The Tri-City markets were rather 

 quiet last week, but now and then fu- 

 neral and wedding work gave period- 

 ical signs of business. Flowers are 

 plentiful enough to meet all require- 

 ments, with the exception of carnations, 

 which locally are practically out of the 

 market. Garden flowers are plentiful. 

 Gladioli are of good quality and early 

 asters are arriving. Outdoor sweet peas 

 were promising, but the hot, dry 

 weather has all but ruined the crop. 

 Other outdoor flowers also show the ef- 

 fects of the intense heat. 



The Club Picnic. 



A short business session of the Tri- 

 City Florists' Club was held during the 

 picnic at the Knees cottage on Rock 

 river. 



The outing proved a big success in 

 every way and C. O. E. Boehm is win- 

 ning local fame as a weather prophet, 

 as it never rains on the day he selects 

 for the picnic. He now is recognized 

 as official weather man of the club. 



Music, dancing and games were in- 

 dulged in and every one of the 115 per- 

 sons in attendance seemed to enjoy the 

 day's outing to the fullest extent. 



Mr. and Mrs. Emil Kranz, of Musca- 

 tine, la., invited the club for the next 

 monthly meeting, August 10. The club 

 members and their wives will make the 

 trip in automobiles, leaving Davenport 

 at 1:30 p. m. William Goos, W. C. 

 Wilson and Edward Patten were ap- 

 pointed a committee to make the neces- 

 sary arrangements for transporting the 

 members. 



Philip Foley, of the Foley Green- 

 house Mfg. Co., Chicago, was a visitor 

 at the picnic, as well as H. A. Thomas, 

 of Geneseo, 111. J. Tukis, of Rock Island, 

 was present and made application for 

 membership in the club. 



Vatrious Notes. 



E. F. Pauli, son of H. G. Pauli, and 

 Miss Delphelia Kuehl, both of Daven- 

 port, sprung a surprise on their parents 

 and friends July 7 by going quietly to 

 Clinton and marrying there. Mr. and 

 Mrs. Pauli will occupy a new home that 

 is being constructed. In the meantime 

 they will reside with the parents of 

 Mr. Pauli. 



Harry Bills, of Davenport, has a new 

 touring car. A. F. Hotkinson, connected 

 with the H. Gaethje greenhouses, also 

 has a new car, equipped with ^ self- 

 starting device. W. G.
