HENRY F. MICHELL CO., 518 Market Street, Philadelphia, Pa 



Mention Tlie Beview when yon write. _^ 



new cement beds. He is going to plant 

 heavily in callas for the coming year. 



Walter Hansen is again with the In- 

 dianapolis Flower & Plant Co. 



Temperley's has a fine house of cin- 

 erarias. 



O. E. Steinkanip has been visiting in 

 Eichmond. 



Homer Wiegand is a chiclien fancier 

 and has been busy at the show. 



Mr. Both, of La Fayette, and Mr. 

 Moore, of Chicago, were visiting in the 

 city last week. 



Baur & Steinkamp are cutting some 

 good yellow snapdragons. 



Mr. Bender, formerly with Benthey 

 & Co., of New Castle, will take charge 

 of the Bertermann Bros, greenhouses at 

 Cumberland March 1. 



The death of James Polk, a well 

 known philanthropist, at his ho^e in 

 (Jreenwood, Ind., was deeply felt by his 

 many friends. Their sympathy for the 

 bereaved family was expressed in many 

 flowers. Telegraph orders were numer- 

 ous. ,J. O. Bishop, of Greenwood, had 

 more work than he could handle and 

 most of the local florists were kept busy. 



The Florists' Supply Co., in addition 

 to the supply house, has a factory on 

 the third floor of the Holiday building, 

 where wire goods are manufactured. 

 This company will specialize in florists' 

 wirework, such as designs, hanging bas- 

 kets and wire supports of all kinds. 

 The house is in a position to care for 

 all kinds of special design work. A 

 line of fancy wire lamp shades will be 

 carried. E. E. T. 



BRAMPTON, ONT. 



Stock is still scarce, especially roses. 

 At no time within recollection has there 

 been such a famine. Prices remain at 

 $25, $20 and $15 per hundred for the 

 several grades respectively. 



There is a tremendous amount of so- 

 ciability in evidence throughout the 

 country just now. Florists everywhere 

 seem to have enjoyed a record January. 



Although the abnormally mild weather 

 continues, violets do not seem to be so 

 much in vogue as in other years, not- 

 withstanding their excellent quality.
