The Florists^ Review

MADISON, N. J. 



The larger growers of this vicinity, 

 including Louis Noe, Lincoln Pierson 

 and L. B. Coddington, of New Provi- 

 dence, N. J., are all propagating the 

 rose Columbia heavily and buying freely 

 of Premier. Coal of good quality is 

 arriving and there is plenty of No. 1 

 buckwheat. Labor conditions also are 

 improving, so that altogether trade pros- 

 pects are looking up. 



Anthony Ruzicka, grower of roses 

 and callas, has purchased the green- 

 houses of Samuel Lum, in Chatham, 

 from the Madison Trust Co., which re- 

 cently bid in at auction this property, 

 which comprises sixteen acres of land 

 and 50,000 feet of glass. Mr. Buzicka 

 already operates the large range known 

 as Villa Lorraine Greenhouses, on the 

 Stemmler estate, Central avenue, under 

 a lease. He will conduct both ranges, 

 starting activities in the Chatham houses 

 in April. He will grow roses prin- 

 cipally, which have been his specialty 

 for twenty years. The Chatham range 

 is admirably adapted to the growing of 

 roses, Mr. Euzicka believes. A. R. 



BUFFALO, N. Y. 



The market continues short of stock. 

 Cut flowers of all kinds are bringing 

 stiff prices. Some of the prices are ac- 

 tually unreasonable. For instance, car- 

 nations, splits with 4 to 6-inch stems, 

 sell at $8 per hundred. Paper Whites 

 are coming in and demand $6 per hun- 

 dred, the supply being only sufficient to 

 furnish a bunch or two to a buyer. 

 Boses are off crop. Not nearly enough 

 are coming in to satisfy the demand 

 and most of the arrivals are classed as 

 specials. One must indeed be resource- 

 ful to make anything on funeral work. 

 Some sweet peas are to be had. They 

 are of medium grade, but demand $3 

 per hundred. The retailers all have 

 been praying for an early spring, so 

 that they may stop worrying about 

 stock. 



S. A. Anderson took charge of the 

 county treasurer's office January 1. 

 Many of his friends sent flowers and 

 congratulations. F. P. A.

This is what Mr. J. E. Cowgill, 

 of Kennebunkport, Me., writes 

 of the System : 



"There is nothing like it, 

 only God's own way of 

 watering."
