The Florists' Review 



Septembhk 28, 1916. 



specimens of corn and onions grown by 

 customers from his seed. He reports 

 fairly good business for this time of 

 year. 



Chas. W. Curtis has a large house full 

 of chrysanthemums, which look particu- 

 larly healthy and are full of good, clean 

 foliage. This is practically a new fea- 

 ture with Mr. Curtis, but he was quite 

 successful in this line last year and has 

 enlarged his mum space this season. 

 His father has been quite unwell for the 

 last two weeks, but is beginning to im- 

 prove. 



An interesting window display was 

 seen in the store of H. E. Wilson last 

 week. It was prettily arranged, with 

 palms, ferns, etc., as a background, and 

 a dining table was set with dishes and 

 silverware, with a pretty centerpiece of 

 pink roses, asters and maidenhair ferns. 

 Individual favors of sweet alyssum and 

 bachelor's buttons added to the effect. 



A quantity of miniature asters, put 

 up in small crocks, were seen in the 

 store of George T. Boucher last week. 

 As flowering plants are scarce, these 

 served as good substitutes. Mr. 

 Boucher's store force was kept fairly 

 busy last week with a good quantity of 

 funeral and wedding work. 



George Cramer, who had an interest- 

 ing collection of rock at the recent ex- 

 position and flower show, has disposed 

 of it at a good figure. 



J. B. Keller Sons had large vases of 

 Michaelmas daisies, etc., in their win- 

 dow last week. These flowers, though 

 not plentiful, are beautiful and are be- 

 coming more popular. H. J. H.
