The Florists' Review. 



NOVBMBEB 28, 1918. 



letter of protest from the Florists' Club 

 in regard to the stock from the city 

 greenhouses being sold at the local de- 

 partment stores below market prices. 

 No action has been taken by the club 

 as yet, on this matter, but steps will 

 be taken to prevent this stock being 

 put on the market at cut prices. 



H. E. Smalley, Allen County Agricul- 

 tural Agent, has received official infor- 

 mation that his brother, Sergeant John 

 W. Smalley, received the distinguished 



service cross for great heroism on the 

 French front, September 12, when he 

 attacked a German machine gun nest. 

 It was in the performance of this coura- 

 geous act that he lost his life. 



Edgar Wenninghoff has a fine line of 

 blooming plants, including primroses, 

 begonias, chrysanthemums and cycla- 

 mens, which he has been offering during 

 the scarcity of cut blooms. He has had 

 an unusually good demand for these, in 



addition to a steady demand for fu- 

 neral pieces. 



Some attractive "Victory" corsages 

 were sent out by the Flick Floral Co. 

 last week, and this concern also put in 

 three wedding decorations. Flowers for 

 pre-nuptial parties have been in brisk 

 demand here. Some fine Ophelia and 

 Bussell roses are being cut at the green- 

 houses and an excellent crop of mums, 

 many of which will be in their prime 

 for Thanksgiving. E. F. B.
