Harry Papworth still presides over 

 the destinies of the Metairie Ridge 

 Nursery Co., and the roses and other 

 Btoclc look fine. The big demand at 

 the Carondelet store cannot be met by 

 the cut from the company's ranges and 

 many roses and stock of other kinds are 

 shipped in from Chicago. The store 

 is most attractive, showing the careful 

 management of Charles Schottmeyer, 

 who is a busy man all the time. 



U. J. Virgin, on Canal street, is one 

 of the oldest established florists and 

 carries a good line. His plants of 

 Areca lutescens, which he grows him- 

 self, are fine and healthy and are pleas- 

 ingly arranged in the store. 



Frank Reith, out at New Basin, is 

 strong on palms and has elegant, stocky 

 Phoenix Roebelenii, Cocos plumosa and 

 others. H. R. R.

The Drumm Seed & Floral Co. is an 

 old established business and Mr. Drumm 

 always has time, busy as he is, to talk 

 interestingly to visitors. A lot of 

 funeral work coming on top of the 

 Thanksgiving rush made everybody 

 busy. 



J. B. Baker and W. J. Baker are the 

 leading lights in the fine store of Baker 

 Bros., the former running the nursery 

 end, the latter the flower end. There 

 are several ladies in the family, too, 

 and thcv nil work together. 



W. J.' Woods, of nandl.\v. Tox., was 

 a visitor here the day after Thanks- 

 giving. 



A local department store started a 

 sale on mums at cost price at Thanks- 

 giving time, greatly injuring the legiti- 

 mate florists' trade here.

 well kept greenhouse and retail estab-
