The Rorists^ Review 



September 11, 1919. 



FORT WORTH, TEX. 



V. J. Davis Entertains. 



Wednesday evening, September 3, the 

 florists of Fort Worth were entertained 

 by V. J. Davis, of the Greenwood Ceme- 

 tery Greenhouses, who is vice-president 

 of the Texas State Florists' Associa- 

 tion. 



The establishment was decorated with 

 autumn foliage and large baskets of 

 Columbia roses, artistically arranged in 

 groups and on pedestals. 



After some well selected songs by 

 Messrs. Shirley and Brokaw and a gen- 

 eral good fellowship meeting, Mr. Davis 

 brought out a great number of fine 

 watermelons that had been on the ice 

 four days. These were disposed of in 

 double-quick time. Music and dancing 

 were then the order of the evening. All 

 voted Mr. Davis a good fellow and a 

 hearty entertainer. 



There were about eighty present. The 

 local florists as well as a few visitors 

 from out of the city were delighted to 

 have the opportunity of looking over 

 this up-to-date establishment. Green- 

 wood Greenhouses are well equipped and 

 have an excellent stock ready to pro- 

 duce to a full extent this coming season.

NEWARK, N. J. 



The Market. 



With the advent of September New- 

 ark florists are looking forward to in- 

 creased sales soon. Many returned from 

 their vacations after Labor day and 

 more are coming back each week. It 

 will probably be the early part of Octo- 

 ber before the usual summer dull period 

 will have disappeared entirely, but from 

 now on the florists expect better busi- 

 ness than they have had since the latter 

 part of June. Gladioli, asters and dah- 

 lias form the bulk of the flowers offered 

 for sale now, with a suflBcient amount 

 of roses to meet the demand. Growers 

 are nearly ready to cut the first of their 

 earliest chrysanthemums. 



Various Notes. 



The duck pool which has been the win- 

 dow feature of the Bosary Floral Co., 

 Market street near Broad street, during 

 most of the summer, is proving nearly 

 as much of an attraction today as it did 

 when first arranged in the early weeks 

 of the summer. Crowds are in front of 

 the window most of the time. 



The flower department of Hahne & Co., 

 Broad street, reports business good for 

 this time of the year. There is some 

 funeral work, though it is not quite up 

 to normal. K. B. M.
