The Florists' Review 



.■■»" - ■ 



Sbptembeb 21, 1916. 



DAVENPORT, B. ISLAND, MOLINi:. 



The Markets. 



Trade last week showed some im- 

 provement. Eoses are of better quality 

 and clean up well, with the exception 

 of Killarney, which is in oversupply. 

 Asters and gladioli of good quality are 

 none too plentiful and carnations as 

 yet are too short of supply to cut any 

 figure in the market. Lilies are suf- 

 ficient for present requirements. 



Club Meeting. • 



The regular meeting of the Tri-City 

 Florists' Club was held at the E. M. C. 

 Eohlf residence, Alta Vista Nurseries, 

 Davenport. The attendance was good. 

 The trip was made in automobiles. The 

 members made a tour of the grounds, 

 which proved extremely interesting, as 

 Mr. Eohlf, in addition to his large nurs- 

 ery stock, makes a specialty of peonies, 

 irises, phloxes and other perennial 

 plants. President Stapp was absent, so 

 Vice-president C. J. Eeardon called the 

 meeting to order. After the regular 

 business had been attended to, Mrs. C. 

 Sorensen presented the topic of the 

 evening, "Perennial Plants." Mr. 

 Eohlf opened the discussion by giving 

 methods of increasing peonies by root 

 divisions. 



C. O. E. Boehm gave his method of 

 growing seedling perennials. Max 

 Knees, of Moline, made application for 

 membership. Harry Bills showed some 

 indoor-grown asters of exceptional size 

 and quality. 



Lunch was served, followed by a so- 

 cial session. After extending a vote of 

 thanks to the host and hostess the club 

 adjourned, to meet at the Henry 

 Gaethje home, Eock Island, the second 

 Thursday in October. W. Q. 



SEWIOKLEY, PA. 



The monthly meeting of the Sewick- 

 ley Horticultural Society was held Sep- 

 tember 12 in the Odd Fellows' hall. 

 Broad street, Sewickley. The coming 

 show, September 22 and 23, was up for 

 discussion, and a committee of arrange- 

 ments was appointed. William Thom- 

 son, Sr., had an exhibit of orchids and 

 Thomas Sturgis showed a collection of 

 gladioli, also some fine seedling dahlias 

 of the Indian family type. A vote of 

 thanks was accorded the exhibitors. 

 The business and reports of the field 

 day, held August 30, were gone over, 

 the picnic being voted a success in 

 every way. The society extended a 

 vote of thanks to Mrs. "William Thaw 

 for her kindness in granting the free- 

 dom of her estate for that day. Appli- 

 cations were received from five who 

 wish to become members. M. C.

Mastica Is elastic and tpDaclons, admits of 

 expansion and contraction. Putty becomes 

 hard and brittle. Broken glass more easily 

 removed without breaking of other glass as 

 occurs with hard putty.
