The Florists' Review 



July 24, 1913. 



TOLEDO, O. 



The Market. 



Business has been exceptionally quiet. 

 This has helped the florists, as there is 

 a great scarcity of flowers. Gladioli are 

 coming in, though in no striking vari- 

 eties, but they have been welcome and 

 have sold well. There are some good 

 Shasta daisies on the market, but no 

 asters have come yet. 



Various Notes. 



The Cushmau Gladiolus Co., Sylvania, 

 O., is sending in some fine sweet peas 

 and finds a ready market for all that 

 can be cut. 



Congratulations are being showered 

 on our \t)ungest and most enterprising 

 florist, FraAk Schramm. A nine-pound 

 baby girl was welcomed to his home 

 last week. Much of the success of the 

 flCrists' picnic was due to the untiring 

 zeal of Mr, Schramm. 



Miss Swartz, of the Patten Flower 

 Store, has returned from a freighter 

 trip to Duluth and other northern 

 points. Jacob Helmer, of the same firm, 

 is on a fishing trip, and there will be 

 big fish stories to tell, even though 

 there be no fish. 



John Barrow's charming daughter, 

 Maybelle, has returned from her wed- 

 ding trip. H. F. P. 



BATAVIA, N. Y. 



There is some activity in building 

 among the local florists this summer. 

 Walter W. Stroh, of L. C. Stroh & Sons, 

 has purchased a lot on Kiver street, of 

 Everett Tomlinson, on which he con- 

 templates building a home. Gustav 

 Noack finds that he is compelled to 

 remodel and enlarge his range of glass. 

 He has had an excellent trade this 

 summer, especially on porch boxes and 

 vases. IJis geraniums were fine plants 

 this year. 



In the line of weather, we must say 

 that we are having a really dry time. 

 We had some light showers July 20, but 

 the sun absorbed the rain about as fast 

 as it descended. This dry weather 

 makes much extra work for persons 

 having much outdoor stock, if they wish 

 to keep it well watered. A, A. K.
