The Florists^ Review 



Sbptembbb 11, 1919. 



LOWELL, MASS. 



The Market. 



The weather here has been much cool- 

 er, with cold nights and heavy rainfall. 

 The Labor day parade caused a great 

 demand for flowers. 



Asters are holding out well. The ex- 

 cessive rains, however, have marked 

 many of the white and light-colored va- 

 rieties. 



Various Notes. 



Tom O'Brien, formerly for several 

 years at J. J. McManmon's, has bought 

 two greenhouses at Lawrence, Mass., 

 and is planting part with carnations. 

 He intends to grow pompon chrysanthe- 

 mums. 



Frank Callahan, of J. J. McManmdn's, 

 has just completed landscaping the 

 grounds at the Dunstable waterworks. 



Mr. Parker, foreman for Frank P. 

 Putnam, has the houses all planted and 

 ready for winter. His carnations are 

 in good shape. He says the firm re- 

 ceived $25 per hundred wholesale for 

 Laddie last winter and not less than $8 

 per hundred for other varieties. 



Ed E. Randall, general manager at 

 J. J. McManmon's, made arrangements 

 last week for planting a large woolen 

 mill yard. Hardy flowers, ramblers, 

 Boston ivy, evergreens, flowering 

 shrubs, etc., will be used. 



Morse & Beals used four delivery cars 

 for their Labor day business. They 

 had an attractive fern window during 

 the summer months, at times using fine 

 specimen adiantums. 



Fenton McManmon has returned to 

 Princeton University, N. J., where he is 

 prominent in athletics. E. E. B. 



Sturgls, Mich.— M. F. Wright reports 

 business good and asserts that never 

 before has he experienced so many large 

 sales so early in the season. His stock 

 is healthy and looks well, despite the 

 hot, dry weather. Gladioli are selling 

 exceptionally well. 



Enid, Okla. — The Oklahoma Floral Co. 

 has recently been organized and plans 

 to erect a range of fourteen greenhouses. 

 The following are officers of the new cor- 

 poration: President, Clarence Kline; 

 secretary and treasurer, Louis L. Mor- 

 rell; superintendent, Frank Bieber.
