The Florists' Review 



Febbdabt 20, 1919. 



Various Notes. 



In suburban districts narcissi are an 

 inch or more above ground. Some of 

 last year's foliage is still green on 

 hedges of Wichuraiana roses. The robin 

 and song sparrow are both here. Farm- 

 ers are plowing on Long Island. All 

 evidence an early spring, but still — we 

 have not yet read of the annual killing 

 of the peach buds. 



A further meeting of horticultural in- 

 terests was held at the S. A. F. offices 

 February 14, lasting until well into the 

 evening. Among those present were 

 J. D. Eisele, of Dreer's, Biverton, N. J.; 

 F. R. Pierson, Tarrytown, N. Y.; C. B. 

 Knickman, of McHutchison & Co., New 

 York; Eobert Pyle, of Conard & Jones 

 Co., West Grove, Pa.; John Watson, 

 Princeton, N. J.; Curtis Nye Smith, 

 Boston, Mafes. ; Leonard H. Vaughan, 

 Chicago, 111.; W. H. Moon, Morristown, 

 N. J., and Thomas Meehan, Dreshertown, 

 Pa. Ways and means of advancing the 

 opposition to the quarantine against 

 plant importation were fully discussed. 



According to the record, a state char- 

 ter has been granted to the Gloria Prod- 

 ucts Corporation, of Brooklyn, to deal 

 in florists' supplies. The directors are 

 Manuel M. Voit and Dora E. Horwitz, 

 of New York, and Eae Beck, of Brook- 

 lyn. J. H. P. 



An enthusiastic meeting of the flower 

 show committees of the New York Flo- 

 rists ' Club and the Horticultural Society 

 of New York was held at the headquar- 

 ters of the former, 1170 Broadway, 

 February 17. The following were pres- 

 ent: Theodore A. Havemeyer, F. R. 

 Newbold, Richard G. Hollaman, F. R. 

 Pierson, C. H. Totty, W. H. Duckham, 

 Jos. A. Manda, George V. Nash, P. W. 

 Popp, John Canning, Philip F. Kessler, 

 Charles Schenck, F. L. Atkins, J. Scheep- 

 ers. Max Schling, W. H. Siebrecht, Sr., 

 A. L. Miller and Secretary John Young. 

 The committees merged into a joint com- 

 mittee and unanimously decided to hold 

 a spring show in 1920, the opening date 

 to be March 15 and the closing date 

 March 21. The show will be held in 

 the Grand Central Palace, which is 

 shortly to be re-converted to exhibition 

 use. C. H. Totty was appointed cTiair- 

 man of the schedule committee. Arthur 

 Herrington was appointed manager of 

 the show. The meeting went on record 

 as disapproving the recent action of the 

 Federal Horticultural Board in estab- 

 lishing a quarantine against importation 

 of plants and flowers. 



Dean Thompson, 52 years old, a flo- 

 rist, shot himself through the heart at 

 his home, 72 Lawrence avenue, Ocean 

 Grove, N. J. He had been suffering from 

 insomnia. 



The annual dinner of the New York 

 and New Jersey Association of Plant 

 Growers took place at the McAlpin 

 hotel, February 18. at 7 p. m. Tickets 

 were $5 per plate. The committee, 

 consisting of John H. Fiesser, Herman C. 

 Steinhoff and William H. Siebrecht, Jr., 

 had arranged the details for an enjoy- 

 able evening, for which this associa- 

 tion's banquets have always been noted. 

 Dancing was provided for as usual. 



The Greek- American Florists' Asso- 

 ciation will give its twelfth annual en- 

 tertainment and ball at Palm Garden, 

 150 East Fifty-eighth street, February 

 27, at 8:30 p. m. From all reports, Mr. 

 Sakas, the chairman of the entertain- 

 ment committee, and his associates have

 promising for the evening to be a huge
