The Florists^ Review 



Mabch 25, 1920 



SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH. 



The Market. 



Business continues good, with prices 

 holding up well. Carnations are abun- 

 dant, but are moving well at $6 to $8 

 per hundred. Roses are in better supply 

 than they were last week, but the sup- 

 ply is still short of the demand and Feb- 

 ruary prices still prevail. Sweet peas 

 clean up nicely at $2 per hundred. Daff- 

 odils of fine quality are selling from 

 $5 to $8 per hundred. 



Easter Outlook. 



Easter stock of all kinds is looking 

 fine and a larger supply than ever be- 

 fore will be available. While the supply 

 of Easter lilies is large, it is feared thafe 

 those who order late will be disap- 

 pointed. Lilies will sell for the same 

 price as last year and the demand will 

 be enormous. Cut flowers, such as roses, 

 carnations, snapdragons, callas, daffo- 

 dils and tulips, will be in fair supply, 

 with prices a little higher than at pres- 

 ent. 



Various Notes. 



Mr. Wilson, of the Salt Lake Floral 

 Co., is looking for the best Easter in 

 the history of his business. He has on 

 hand some extra fine formosum lilies, 

 the only ones in the state. 



The Miller Floral Co., at Farmington, 

 Utah, has 8,000 Easter lilies in excellent 

 condition, which will just be right for 

 Easter. 



William Sorensen, of the Inter-Moun- 

 tain Floral Co., has some fine hydran- 

 geas for Easter trade. 



A. Mour, manager of the City Floral 

 Co., at Idaho Falls, Ida., visited the 

 growers last week and placed his order 

 for Easter. 



L. B. Westholder, owner of the two 

 largest stores in Wyoming, was a Salt 

 Lake visitor Saturday, March 20. 



Mrs. Paul Richmond, wife of Paul 

 Richmond, of the Miller Floral Co., ar- 

 rived in Salt Lake Saturday, March 20, 

 where they will make their home. Mr. 

 Richmond is feeling better, as he had 

 not seen his wife for six months. 



G. J. B. 



Mt. Carroll, 111. — Mrs. Henry Schroep- 

 pel has purchased the business of E. 

 Margileth and will grow flowers, plants 

 and vegetables for retail.

This year you can give your lawn 

 better care at less cost 



All those who have large lawns to care 

 for know only too well how difficult such 

 care has been during the past two years. 

 Many fine lawns have been badly neglect- 

 ed because it has been next to impossible 

 to get the necessary help. 

 TTiie year you can give your lawn the at- 

 tention it requires and have the work done 

 better and at less cost than was ever pos- 

 sible with hand mowers. The Ideal 

 Power Lawn Mower will solve your grass 

 cutting problems just the same as it has 

 for hundreds of others. 



Advantages of the Ideal 



The Ideal is a power mower and roller 

 in one and the sod is rolled every time 

 the grass is cut. This keeps it smooth, 

 firm and free from bumps. The Ideal is 

 scientifically designed to keep lawns in 

 fine condition. The weight is just right 

 for steady year around work. 

 The Mower has a thirty-inch cut and 

 one man can easily mow four or five 

 acres of grass per day at an operating ex- 

 pense of about fifty cents for fuel and oil. 



Cuts Close to Walks, Trees 

 and Shrubbery 



Machine turns easily and will cut close 



up to walks, tioes, flower beds and 



shrubbery. 



When running over walks, driveways, 



pavements, etc., the operator simply lifts 



the cutting mower from the ground by 

 means of a conveniently placed lever. 

 This feature is also important in the early 

 spring when it is desired to use the ma- 

 chine for rolling only. Simply lift up the 

 cutting mower, add more weight if re- 

 quired and you have the most convenient 

 power roller imaginable. 

 The success of the Ideal is due to its 

 sturdy and powerful, yet simple, construc- 

 tion. No clutches or complicated parts 

 to wear and get out of order. The Mo- 

 tor is built in our own shop and de- 

 signed especially for the work. 

 Owners of large estates, public parks, 

 golf clubs, country clubs, cemeteries, etc., 

 are all using the Ideal Tractor Lawn 

 Mower with great success. 



Special Cutting Mower for 

 Putting Greens 



For work on golf courses we furnish, at 

 slight additional cost, a special set of cut- 

 ting blades for use on the putting greens. 

 In less than five minutes the regular 30" 

 blade can be substituted for cutting the 

 fairway. 



When desired, we also furnish, as an 

 extra, a riding trailer which fastens to 

 the frame and permits the operator to 

 ride and at the same time have the same 

 easy control as when walking. 

 You can secure the Ideal through your 

 dealer direct or from our factory. Write 

 today for catalogue and further details.
