The Florists' Review 



Fbbruart 4, 1016. 



DAYTON, O. 



The Market. 



■ Snow every day last week, with the 

 mercury hovering around zero, kept the 

 florists busy in this vicinity, while the 

 coal man was seen with a broad smile 

 on his face. Trade is not what it might 

 be, as there is little doing in any line 

 except funeral work, of which all seem 

 to have their share. Stock is not any 

 too plentiful, except in the bulbous line. 

 Boses are off crop. Carnations get 

 cleaned up nicely; so do lilies, which 

 are in good demand. Pot plants, such 

 as primroses, cyclamens and azaleas, 

 move well. 



Various Notes. 



The Heiss Co. reports that on some 

 days business is rushing, but at other 

 times there is little doing. 



The Miami Floral Co. reports business 

 fair. Their roses are between crops. 



Geo. W. Frisch & Son, who have a 

 stand in the market house, report busi- 

 ness fair. They grow principally pot 

 plants. 



The grip seems to have been severe 

 on the florists in this city. Miss Katie 

 Young, George Bartholomew, James 

 Ewing, of the Miami Floral Co., and 

 others are victims, but at present they 

 are all on the road to recovery. 



Mrs. B. Hendrichs, formerly in busi- 

 ness at 808 East Fifth street, has been 

 confined to the house all winter. 



George W. Bartholomew had the mis- 

 fortune to lose his delivery horse last 

 week. G. W. B. 



The first annual floral and landscape 

 gardening exposition of the Miami val- 

 ley will be held in the Exposition build- 

 ing, the old First Baptist church, on 

 Main street between First and Second 

 streets, in this city, March 1 to 6. W. 

 Allen Barber, the manager, states that 

 the enterprise has the indorsement of 

 the local associations and the commer- 

 cial organization, and that some space 

 already has been engaged. The floor 

 plans are ready and Mr, Barber will be 

 pleased to forward, to anyone inter- 

 ested, the plans and contracts for space. 



Dixon, HL — The Rosery Flower Shop, 

 owned by C. O. Engle, has been moved 

 from the Opera House block to the 

 Beier building, on Hennepin avenue.
