The Florists' Revkw 



June 11, 1914. 



Apd small. Easter lilies are cot coming 

 fast, but there is little demand for 

 them. Sweet peas are not overplenti- 

 ful and they are much shorter-stemmed 

 this week; this hinders their sale con- 

 siderably. Bachelor's buttons, peonies, 

 Ifipines, and blue and yellow iris are 

 coming in heavy consignments, but do 

 not clear well. Carnations, on the 

 "w^hole, are not at all satisfactory, as 

 many of them are sleepy as soon as 

 tkejr arrive. Daisies ate scarce. Out- 

 door bedding- work, is not at an end 

 yet; the sales are heavy. The supply 

 of greep goods is about normal. 



Various Notes. 



Milton Selinka, of Schloss Bros., New 

 York city, was in town and picked up 

 several good orders. He says business 

 is highly satisfactory. 



Miss Dudley, of Crosman Bros.' East 

 Main street store, had the misfortune 

 May 30 to prick her eye with a dra- 

 casna spike, causing her intense pain. 

 She was obliged to spend most of Me- 

 morial day in St. Mary's hospital, tak- 

 ing treatments. The sight of the eye is 

 impaired, but quick recoverv is hoped 

 for. 



H. E. Wilson has had a busy week 

 with graduation bouquets and funeral 

 work. The counter trade has been good 

 and they have orders for a number of 

 weddings. 



Good counter trade, demanding a lot 

 of extra help, is noticed at the seed 

 store of James Vick's Sons, on Stone 

 street. They are kept busy right along 

 and the extra rush means later hours 

 for the regular help. 



Richard Roe went on an automobile 

 trip to Hamilton, Canada, for Memo- 

 rial day and Sunday. 



J. B. Keller Sons had an attractive 

 window decoration last week; it was 

 simple, yet unusually artistic. A huge 

 basket, containing probably 100 Easter 

 lilies, was the center of attraction, sur- 

 rounded by large palms and ferns. 



George T. Boucher reports good busi- 

 ness and says he has several good or- 

 ders booked ahead. His Memorial day 

 trade was especially good. 



Paul Campas is doing a good, steady 

 trade at his stand at the corner of East 

 Main and State streets. 



The Briggs Bros. Seed Co. is clearing 

 a lot of vegetable and flower plants, as 

 well as a big stock of seeds, at the 

 North Water street store. H. J. H.
