The Market. 



^■pv^- 



Business was brisk during the Knights 

 Templar week. A considerable number 

 of table decoratio'ns were called for, and 

 many palms and cut flowers were used 

 at the different commandery headquar- 

 ters. AstCTs and gladioli »T9 in raid- 

 season. Sweet peas are scarce and of 

 poor quality. Good roses and carna- 

 tions are at a premium. There is an 

 abundance of outdoor stock, but no 

 market for it. 



Various Notes. 



Charles Benson has moved to his own 

 range of glass on South Grant street, 

 as his lease has expired on James Davis' 

 place on Lowell boulevard. James Davis 

 is again in the harness and will grow 

 mixed stock for the market. 



Ben Boldt has remodeled his green- 

 houses and has added an auto- truck for 

 delivering. 



George H. Cooper has been away on 

 a well earned vacation, but was back at 

 'his store for the conclave rush. 



There were several visiting florists 

 among the Knights Templar, but the 

 writer was unable to obtain their names. 

 The florists of Denver were represented 

 during the conclave by Sir Knights Ben 

 Boldt and Carl Gross. Several nice 

 window displays were made for the con-, 

 elave by the Park Floral Co., the Alpha 

 Floral Co. and the Boldt-Lundy Flower 

 Shop. L' 



SPBINGFIELD, O. 



The plant of the Reeser Floral Co., at 

 Urbana, O., consisting of fourteen houses 

 covered by about 30,003 square feet of 

 glass, and including approximately ten 

 acres of land, has been taken over by 

 the Good & Reese Co., of this city, for a 

 consideration uhderstood to have been 

 about $12,000. The Reeser Co. origin- 

 ally did a retail catalogue mail-order 

 business, but for several years its crops 

 have been sold at wholesale, largely to 

 Springfield florists. 



The brothers, John M. and Frank E. 

 Good, who put through the deal, cannot 

 be interviewed at this writing, being on 

 their annual outing at Grand Lake, 

 Mich. It is reported, however, that the 

 product of the place will be taken by 

 the Good & Reese Co., but that a sepa- 

 rate corporation will be formed and 

 that Roger H. Murphoy and "William H. 

 Reeser, both residents of Urbana, will 

 be associated in the management of the 

 growing. Ge Dale.

 proprietor of the Winterhaven Nur- 

 series, took a trip to Tampa recently.
