HEADQUARTERS 



For Florists' Ribbons, Chiffons and Novelties 



skillful culture and this new plant fac- 

 tory seems destined to become one of 

 the leaders in this vicinity. Arnold 

 Janitan, head of the firm, was formerly 

 with the firm of Janitan & WoUrath, 

 Waltham, and is one of our brainiest 

 plant growers. 



G«orge W. Hamer, the popular as- 

 sistant manager of the Boston Flower 

 Exchange, left July 24 for his annual 

 vacation, which will be spent visiting 

 various points of interest in Massachu- 

 setts. 



Henry Penn and wife leave August 1 

 for their annual vacation, which will bo 

 spent at Grand Lake Stream, Me., where 

 the finny tribe are plentiful and bite 

 eagerly. Mr. and Mrs. Penn will make 

 the trip by automobile and will make 

 side trips to Bar Harbor and other 

 points of interest. Mr. Penn doubts if 

 ne will attend the Cleveland convention. 

 At the store I noted in one window a 

 fine display of hardy herbaceous flowers 

 and shrubs with Latin and English 

 names attached. 



The eoal situation is clarified some- 

 what and the promise of President Wil- 

 son to see that New England seenres a 

 sufSeient fuel supply is more encourag- 

 ing to growers, but they are not yet 

 optimistic. 



One prominent local pot plant firm 

 which has done specially well with 

 cyclamens and poinsettias and has made 

 a good reputation wants to get out of 

 the business and offers its place for sale, 

 although it claims to have made consid- 

 erable money. There would appear to 

 be just as good opportunities for making 

 money in growing plants in and around 

 Boston today as in garage or other busi- 

 nesses which might be named. 



At the shoe and leather style show, 

 held in the Mechanics' building last 

 week, which attracted many thousands 

 of visitors, Thomas F. Galvin, Jr., of 

 Devonshire street, and T. F. Galvin, Inc., 

 had charge of the floral and other deco- 

 rationsj which were quite extensive and 

 elaborate. These summer expositions, 

 coming as they do when cut flower trade 

 is at its lowest ebb, would seem to be 

 an inviting field for retailers to develop. 



The sincere sympathy of the trade is 

 extended to Paul F. Brigham, the well 

 known Westboro florist, in the death of 

 his wife, which occurred July 19 after 

 a five months' sickness in the hospital, 

 borne with exemplary patience. The 

 deceased lady was only 28 years of age
