TIk Fbtists' Review 



June 25, 1914. 



BBAMPTON^ ONT. 



The vagaries of the weather have 

 been interesting during the last few 

 wefeks. June 8 the temperature went 

 up to 116 degrees in the greenhouses, 

 and the heat was so intense that for 

 the first time in many years several 

 of the men were compelled to leave 

 work for the day. Last week cool, 

 windy weather set in, and a record 

 midsummer temperature was estab- 

 lished — 32 degrees. The results in the 

 immediate neighborhood were some- 

 what unfortunate and in the surround- 

 ing parts of the country the loss will 

 be seriously felt. 



Business at the Dale Estate con- 

 tinues good, but aside from Beauties, 

 orchids and gladioli the stock is noth- 

 ing to boast of. Sweet peas are prac- 

 tically over indoors, and it will be 

 three or four weeks before the outside 

 blooms will be ready for the market. 

 There is no building going on here at 

 present, but a good deal of repairing is 

 being done. Fred Cox, assistant night 

 shipper, left for England on a three 

 months' trip last week, and Thomas 

 Dale journeyed out to Vancouver with 

 the Brampton lacrosse team, who have 

 gone west in an endeavor to lift the 

 famous Mann cup. 



The ad convention in Toronto brings 

 to that city between 4,000 and 5,000 

 delegates this week from all over Amer- 

 ica, as well as representatives from 

 other parts of the world, so that the 

 florists in that city are anticipating a 

 particularly busy week and may find 

 stock somewhat difficult to secure.

Duluth, Minn. — J. J. Le Borious has 

 been cleaning out his stock at retail at 

 cut prices, in order to get it down to 

 the lowest point possible while he is 

 making the extensive improvements on 

 liis place that he has planned to occupy 

 his time this summer. 



Hambleton, W. Va.— H. K. Hoefner 

 states that business has been the best 

 ever this season. He has had a fine cut 

 flower trade, disposing of all the roses 

 and carnations he could grow, and dur- 

 ing June business in bedding ])lants has 

 been excellent, stock having been pretty 

 well sold out by June 15.
