The Florists' Review 



August 3, 1916. 



CINCINNATI. 



Tlie Market. 



Business is fairly good. The supply 

 is large enough to take care of the 

 present demand and comprises a good 

 deal of stock of excellent quality. 

 Boses are in fair supply. Gladioli are 

 plentiful, but more of the choice va- 

 rieties in white and pink could be 

 used. Asters are abundant. There is 

 a sufficient quantity of Easter lilies. 

 Some excellent hardy hydrangeas may 

 be had. Snapdragons meet with a fair 

 call. Among the other available flowers 

 are Lilium rubrum, water lilies and 

 cornflowers. Greens are plentiful. 



Various Notes. 



Eoger Peterson's new house was 

 struck by lightning during a recent 

 storm. 



P. O. Coblentz, of New Madison, O., 

 began shipping his fine gladioli to C. E. 

 Critchell last week. 



Mr. and Mrs. William Mayhall re- 

 port that they had an exceedingly en- 

 joyable time on their auto trip to 

 Lexington, Ky., last week. 



Eecent visitors included Frank J. 

 Parney, of the M. Eice Co., Philadel- 

 phia; .Joseph Hill, of Eichmond, Ind.; 

 Martin Weber, of Brookville, Ind.; Fred 

 Eupp, of Lawrenceburg, Ind., and 

 Ernst E. Schaeffer, of Dayton, O. 



The Cincinnati Cut Flower Exchange 

 has moved into its new quarters at 10 

 East Third street. C. H. H. 



NEWPORT, R. I. 



At the annual meeting of the New- 

 port Garden Club Mrs. Charles F. Hoff- 

 man was elected president and Mrs. 

 Frederick Pearson, secretary. The of- 

 fer of the Hilltop Inn grounds for the 

 annual midsummer show, to be held 

 jointly with the Newport Horticultural 

 Society, August 17 to 19, was accepted. 

 This promises to be the best flower 

 show ever held in Newport, growers 

 from Philadelphia, New York and around 

 Boston having announced their inten- 

 tions of entering. A good list of prizes 

 has been offered. On the second day 

 Arthur Herrington will lecture on irises. 



A striking reminder of the Mexican 

 border was ^o be seen last week in the 

 Leikens window on Bellevue avenue. 

 The "flower" was sent by Sergeant 

 Joseph Leikens of the Seventh Eegi- 

 ment, N. G. S. N. Y., who is with his 

 command at McAllen, Tex. This sam- 

 ple is but a part of the cactus field the 

 troops had to clear to pitch their camp.

 everlaatingf Virs^inia White Cedar will 

 best resist rot or decay. The "Keystone" brand

They are bound with heavy steel hoops for the large
