The Florists' Review 



Uxr 14. 1914: 



SEATTIiE NOTES. 



[ContiDaed from page 77.] 



Pacific Northwest Rose Society's first 

 show has been issued. The show is to 

 be held June 13 and 14, in tents on the 

 lawn adjoining the Henry building, on 

 Fourth avenue. There is but one class 

 open to florists, but it is hoped all the 

 florists will assist in making this first 

 show a successful one, as it always 

 means increased business for someone 

 in the trade. 



Morris Kennedy, who assists Ralph 

 Richardson, at Brighton, has had a 

 severe attack of tonsillitis. I am glad 

 to report that he has almost recovered. 



Miss Schnapp, at the Paris Florists', 

 was superintending E. Matria in the 

 construction of a casket cover of roses 

 and carnations when I called. 



The cucumber market is none too 

 good, and prices compare most unfavor- 

 ably with last year 's. T. W. 



WHAT TEXAS PAYS. 



HConcluded from page 21.] 

 tions had sufficient funds to keep them 

 in a business-like way they would be 

 glad to conduct experiments that would 

 enable the florists of this state to ac- 

 quire a knowledge of how to produce 

 those plants that they now ship into 

 this state by the thousands and for 

 which we pay out an enormous sum. 



The taxable value of the nurseries and 

 greenhouses of this state, according to 

 the valuation given in the assessments, 

 is $1,752,520. That is the valuation 

 placed by the owners of the property. 

 If the real value could be ascertained 

 it would amount to something like $5,- 

 000,000 invested in horticulture in this 

 state. That industry, then, is certainly 

 worthy of the assistance of our legisla- 

 ture; it is worthy of the attention of the 

 master minds of the department of agri- 

 culture and the Agriculture and Me- 

 chanics College of our state. 



Poughkeepsie, N. Y.— Geo. A. Relyea 

 has sold his business here. He has at 

 present no definite plans for the future. 



Chetek, Wis.— Mrs. C. M. Andrus is 

 building a greenhouse and will enter 

 the greenhouse business, growing flowers 

 and vegetables for the locsH market. 



New Castle, Ind. — Myer Heller, presi- 

 dent of the South Park Floral Co., sails 

 May 16, from New York, on the Imper- 

 ator, to spend a fortnight or more 

 among the rose raisers of France, 

 Germany, England and Ireland. 



Mansfield, O. — L. E. Berno, manager 

 of the Berno Flower Shop, says Moth- 

 ers' day was beyond all expectations 

 and will eventually be another Easter. 

 At this store they could not meet the 

 demand, and all colors of flowers sold 

 well. 



Ashtabula, O. — The partnership of 

 Dunbar & Hopkins, after an existence 

 of twenty-one years, was dissolved May 

 1, and its property and obligations 

 taken over by the Dunbar-Hopkins Co. 

 The business will be continued under 

 the same management, and the stock is 

 held by members of the two families. 

 The officers are: President, C. W. Hop- 

 kins; vice-president, Alden W. Hopkins; 

 secretary^ E. A. Duabwp, and treasurer, 

 Robert A. Dunbar. The«'-eompany has 

 contracted for the erection this sum- 

 ilier of a ja^ge at Woodman avenue an4 

 the Pennsylvania railroad tracks.
