The Florists^ Rcvic\xr 



NOVEMBKR 2, 19l6. 



soniffi orchids have won favor with the 

 public this season. A few dahlias ar- 

 rive occasionally, but the weather cer- 

 tainly tells on these; the same applies 

 to cosmos. Snapdragons, mignonette, 

 daisies and myosotis are arriving in 

 smaller quantities, and these indeed are 

 welcome with any florist. Narcissi, too, 

 have opened their season. As yet there 

 are no sweet peas to be had. Greens of 

 all kinds continue sufficient for all de- 

 mands. 



Various Notes. 



Adolph Farenwald was a recent vis- 

 itor to Buffalo. 



Barney Meyers, of Lancaster, has 

 undertaken the task of growing orchids, 

 and he is having wonderful success. 

 Cattleyas are the principal stock and 

 these are wonderful in size and color. 



John Fiebelkorn is no longer asso- 

 ciated with Galley Bros., on Genesee 

 street. 



W. J. Palmer is at New York this 

 week. 



Charles Felton, of the Felton Flower 

 Shop, has been busy with wedding deco- 

 rations. 



William C. E. Ehmann, of Corfu, has 

 purchased a delivery car, with which he 

 brings his cut flowers to the market at 

 a much earlier hour than when the ex- 

 press company delivered them. He also 

 manages to bring in the flowers of the 

 other greenhouses. 



R. Greenlaw, of H. Bayersdorfer & 

 Co., Philadelphia, was in town last 

 week. 



Bowling Scores. 



Last week's contest at the alleys re- 

 sulted in a victory for the Cadillacs by 

 a small margin. Following are the 

 scores of the florists.

Ames, la. — The department of horti- 

 culture of the Iowa State College has 

 announced an autumn flower show for 

 November 10 and 11. It is expected 

 that the show will have a far-reaching 

 effect, since it will be visited not only 

 by the 5,000 students who come from 

 all over the state, but by the florists 

 of the state, as well as by the towns- 

 people. The florists about the state are 

 cooperating with the college. Nineteen 

 competitive classes, which are only 

 open to the commercial florists of Iowa, 

 have been provided.
