The Florists' Review 



Mat 27, 1920. 



Florists* 

 Refrigerators 



We manufacture, in our own plant, a complete 

 line of florists' refrigerators. While we have 

 many popular stzmdard designs, most refrig- 

 erators are built for individual requirements. 

 Brecht Refrigerators are the result of 67 years* 

 experience. They are designed on a scien- 

 tific basis, from the best material obtainable, 

 and are built to give greatest service with 

 minimum ice consumption. 



We will be glad to quote you on our standard 

 designs, or to offer suggestions and submit 

 special designs upon receipt of your require- 

 ments.

L. M. Smith, formerly with the W. W. 

 Barnard Co., and now one of the man- 

 agers of the M. G. Madson Seed Co., 

 Manitowoc, Wig., spent May 24 among 

 old acquaintances in the Chicago terri- 

 tory. He reports an extremely active 

 season, both in the seed department of 

 the Madson business and in the big re- 

 tail flower store, which is proving a 

 highly successful branch of the con- 

 cern. 



BOSTON. 



Tlie Market. 



Cut flower prices made a radical de- 

 cline last week to new low levels for 

 the present year. Several days of clear, 

 warm, summer-like weather sent a 

 largely increased amount of material 

 into the markets and, with no increa^ 

 in demand, values naturally came down 

 with a thud. Roses suffered worse than 

 any other flowers and the bulk of ar- 

 rivals sold at $1 to $4 per hundred, with 

 carnations falling as low as $10 per 

 thousand. Other flowers declined in al- 

 most like ratio. The usual cold, driving 

 rain storm, now looked for on Satur- 

 days, put in its appearance May 22 and 

 nearly destroyed retail trade. The pres- 

 ent week opened with cooler weather, 

 and as we have had no sun for several 

 days, this has materially reduced the 

 supplies of cut flowers, and prices are 

 hardening and will continue to do so 

 the remainder of the week. 



Roses are still selling as low as $1 

 per hundred for short-stemmed stock, 

 but a gradual rise is probable unless
