The Florists' Review 



Jolt 80, 1»14. 



ent flow pipes to 2-inch at the end of 

 the present house and would carry 

 them either on the plates or under the 

 ridge to the farther end of the lettuce 

 house, and would connect each of them 

 with two 114-inch returns. F# hot 

 water I would use the flow pipes as sug- 

 gested, and eight 1 14 -inch returns. 



If steam is used, the returns could 

 be under the side benches and could 

 be connected with one return on each 

 side of the middle bench in the main 

 greenhouse. For hot water it would be 

 well to join all of the returns in the 

 lettuce house to a 214-inch return and 

 connect this with the boiler.

The Market. 



We are having regular July weather 

 and irregular July business. There is 

 an abundance of asters, gladioli and 

 lilies, including both giganteum and 

 speciosum. Valley and snapdragon also 

 are plentiful. There is little call for 

 anything except asters, the best of 

 which are sold out early each day. 



Gladiolus Show. 



The joint exhibition of the Ohio Gla- 

 diolus Society and the Cleveland Flo- 

 rists' Club will be held August 14 and 

 15 at the Hollenden hotel. Arrange- 

 ments have been completed for a ban- 

 ner exhibition. A special feature that 

 IS sure to attract the public will be 

 the use of the gladiolus in retailers' 

 display. All the leading stores are 

 coming in on this and there will be a 

 fine demonstration of table work, also 

 many decorated baskets of gladioli, and 

 the use of the flower will be shown in 

 many other ways. The state organiza- 

 tion 18 furnishing the stock with which
