The Florists^ Review 



AnousT 2, 1917. 



CINCINNATI. 



The Market. 



Stock is plentiful, but business is 

 quiet. About the only item for which 

 there is a steady demand is greens and 

 the bulk of the call for this is from 

 out of town. Eoses are abundant, but 

 they have been affected by the heat. 

 Asters now are in big supply, nearly 

 all local growers having heavy cuts, 

 and many more are shipped in. Easter 

 lilies are in sufficient supply to meet the 

 demand. Gladioli are abundant and are 

 of excellent quality. Other offerings 

 include rubrum and auratum lilies, 

 snapdragons, hardy hydrangeas, phlox 

 and a few carnations. 



Various Notes. 



Louis H. Kyrk had some excellent 

 Shawyer roses last week. 



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

 has begun to ship his cut of gladioli to 

 C. E. Critchell. Mr, Coblentz has 

 gained fame as a grower of gladioli and 

 the blooms he has shipped in other 

 years have found ready sale. 



The Cincinnati Cut Flower Exchange 

 has been handling some excellent asters 

 from local growers. 



Among recent visitors to Cincinnati 

 were Frank Schoen, Cleveland, O.; 

 William Hull, Bristol, Tenn.; H. P. 

 Smith, Piqua, O.; H. F. Winter, Charles- 

 ton, W. Va.; William Gardner and 

 Joseph H. Hill, Eichmond, Ind.; Alfred 

 Pahud, Indianapolis, Ind., and Fred and 

 Charles Pommert, Amelia, O. 



Sam Seligman, representing Werthei- 

 mer Bros., New York city, called on the 

 trade here this week. C. H. H. 



BRAMPTON, ONT. 



Many florists from Brampton and 

 vicinity are going to the convention of 

 the Canadian Horticultural Association 

 by boat from Toronto, leaving August 

 4. A number of outings during the con- 

 vention have been arranged and, with 

 the program that has been prepared, the 

 visitors are assured an interesting time. 



The weather during the last week was 

 extremely warm and, although outdoor 

 stock was plentiful, there was a good 

 call for flowers of all kinds. 



The Dale Estate employees held a 

 picnic at Snell's lake July 21. It was 

 a great success. W. G. P. 



Wooster, O. — The large Kingsley 

 greenhouse is to be dismantled to make 

 room for a smaller one of more modern 

 type. Mrs. G, Kingsley will continue 

 the business, as formerly.

Hand-weeding, at its best, is of the 

 horse car class, costly, and mast be done 

 over and over again. Besides, labor should 

 be put to more productive work. 



The remedy? 



Owners of estates and homes, as well as 

 leading railroads, municipalities, country 

 and golf clubs, parks and cemeteries ail 

 over the country, have found a solution to 

 the weed problem in Atlas Chemical Weed 

 Killer. 



One application of this chemical, diluted 

 with 20 parts water, permanently destroys 

 weed growth for the entire season. Atlas 

 burns down to the very root— also steril- 

 izes the ground round about. 



Tell your customers of Atlas— its econ- 

 omy, effectiveness and how easily it is 

 applied. They'll remember, then, of 

 having read of it in the magazine adver- 

 tisements. They will buy— you will 

 profit.
