ATLANTA, GA. 



The Market. 

 Trade has been extremely dull for the 

 last few weeks, except for funerals, aa 

 so many people leave the city at this 

 time. The drought has been fearful 

 and outside flowers are scarce as well 

 as inferior. Carnations are almost an 

 unknown quantity. Indeed, it has been 

 hard to meet the demand with good 

 blooms of any kind. 



Various Notes. 



Jim Coursey is building two houses, 

 25 X 100 feet. One of them he proposes 

 to plant in sweet peas. He has a fine 

 lot of ferns, a pet plant of his. His pot 

 plants are handled by H. G. Hastings 

 & Co. 



The Atlanta Floral Co. moved to the 

 new quarters on Peachtree street Sep- 

 tember 1. This company has in the 

 course of construction a greenhouse, 36 

 X 310 feet, to be used for forcing roses, 

 and is also planning to grow perennials 

 outside for cutting, in order to meet 

 its ever increasing trade. 



The West View Floral Co. has re- 

 cently changed hands. The present 

 lessee is R. 1. Gresham, who also man- 

 ages the uptown office of the C. A. Dahl 



Co. ^ . 



We are glad to report a great im- 

 provement in the health of Ed. Wachen- 

 dorff, of Wachendorff Bros. He has 

 been on the sick list for some time. We 

 were much pleased with his latest 

 house, a strong, beautiful structure, af- 

 fording ample light. 



The Alto-Vista Floral Co. has quar- 

 ters in the fine new Ausley hotel. The 

 company has purchased the plant of 

 the Ponce De Leon Floral Co., and 

 moved the stock and house to its plant 

 on Sells avenue. The firm recently 

 built a new house, 26 x 100 feet, and 

 will soon build a house for geraniums. 



We regret to write of the ill health 

 of one of our oldest florists, John J. 

 Logue. A serious trouble with his 

 eyes has prevented his attention to 

 business. 



A new enterprise under the name or 

 the Marwood Gardens is being opened 

 up on Sells avenue. The firm aims to 

 grow roses and hardy plants for the 

 mail-order business. The proprietors 

 are Miss H. E. Martin and Miss S. J. 

 Wood. , M. B. W. 



The Atlanta Floral Co. has purchased 

 a six-acre tract on the Kirk road for 

 $7,875 and will erect greenhouses on 

 the land. 



Fargo, N. D.— The Shotwell Floral Co. 

 is building a 10-foot addition to the 

 north side of the present building, 

 which will contain a conservatory and 

 palm room. The present office and re- 

 frigerator are also being enlarged in 

 order to accommodate the firm's grow- 

 ing business.
