tion and the few coming in from the 

 field are of poor quality for this season. 

 The demand for them is light. Gladiolus 

 spikes are in great demand and they 

 are the only flowers carried by the re- 

 tailer in large quantities. Schwabcn 

 and America meet with the greatest 

 demand. Chicago White, Niagara 

 and Pendleton come next. The supply 

 has fallen ofE greatly the last ten days. 

 Besides the flowers mentioned, there 

 is the usual supply of outdoor flowers 

 and the demand about clears them 

 daily. Outside of aparagus and ferns, 

 the sales of greens are slow. 



Picnic a Success. 



The florists' picnic, an annual event 

 among the retailers, wholesalers and 

 growers, took place July 21, at Nor- 

 mandy grove. The weather was per- 

 fect. The attendance was not so large 

 as in past years. It was estimated at 

 300. 



Tho trustees, L. Baumaun, O. J. Ruff 

 and L. Jules Bourdet, had everything 

 in readiness when the florists with their 

 families and friends arrived. 



The program was made up of twelve 

 events and all of them had large entries 

 and created a great deal of excitement, 

 especially among the younger folks, 

 while the older people took more than 

 usual interest in all events. The tug 

 of war was waged by a team of grow- 

 iTs, captained by .Joseph Hauser, and a 

 team of wholesalers and retailers, cap- 

 tained liy A. Hoffmann, Jr. After a 

 hard pull the growers' team was de- 

 feated for the first time in years. 



Another event, full of interest for 

 the last twenty-eight years, is the ball 

 game between the wholesalers and the 

 retailers. Albert Guniz captained tho 

 wholesalers and Oscar Ruff tho retail- 

 ers. Cliarles Wors, .Tr., umpired the 

 game in the fashion of a big league 

 game. Oscar Ruff and John J. Bentzen 

 were the battery for the retailers and 

 George Kuehner and Tom Finnogan for 

 the wholesalers. As the hour was grow- 

 ing late, it was agreed that only five
