The Florists^ Review 



Decbmbbr 1, 1921 



SCRANTON, PA. 



Thanksgiving trade met the full ex- 

 pectations of the florists in this part of 

 the state. All kinds of chrysanthemums 

 were exceedingly fine, pompons and 

 medium and large flowers. We could be 

 thankful for these, but not overly thank- 

 ful for the weather conditions. Novem- 

 ber, 1921, will go down in history as a 

 frowning month. People wanted flowers 

 to brighten the home inside. 



S. S. Pennock has postponed his visit 

 to the Scranton Florists' Club until 

 January 10, 1922, at which time he will 

 show stcreopticon views of his trip 

 abroad; this should prove exceedingly 

 interesting. John Young will be with us 

 Tuesday night, December 6, at the club's 

 regular meeting. He will promote the 

 interest of the S. A. F., also the pub- 

 licity of the F. T. D. His talk will be at 

 the banquet to be given in the banquet 

 room of the Elks' Club. 



Every florist is in full swing prepar- 

 ing for the Christmas trade, which 

 promises to be as large as ever. At this 

 time poinsettias, begonias, cyclamens 

 and heather are in fine shape. G. E. C. 



NEWPORT, R. I. 



The regular meeting of the Newport 

 Horticultural Society, held recently, was 

 most interesting and important. There 

 was an unusually large attendance and 

 plans for the coming season were dis- 

 cussed. Announcement was made that 

 the Gardeh "Association of America will 

 hold its annual convention and exhibi- 

 tion at Newport in 1923. The meeting 

 will be held in the early summer and it 

 is expected that the exhibition will 

 bring together one of the biggest dis- 

 plays ever seen in the flower show line 

 at Newport. The medals and certificates 

 awarded for the September show of the 

 Horticultural Society were distributed 

 to the winners in attendance. 



Charles S. Ritchie was elected a mem- 

 ber of the town council of Middletown 

 at the election Tuesday, November 22. 



Cut flower business for the Thanks- 

 giving holidays was especially active. 



Oscar Schultz handled several decora- 

 tions during the last week. W. H. M. 



Moultrie, G-a. — T. E. Ginn has been in 

 ill health for more than three months 

 and has decided to sell out, to recuper- 

 ate. He has eight acres of land and 

 8,000 feet of glass. 



Enoxville, Term. — Baum 's, Crouch, 

 Dailey's and the McNutt Floral Co. 

 united to place a full-page advertise- 

 ment in the Journal and Tribune Sun- 

 day, November 20. A huge gobbler and 

 the two colors, red and black, in which 

 the page was printed made it exception- 

 ally striking.
