The Florists' Review 



JUNB 8, 1916. 



BALTIMOBE. 



The Market. 



During the cool week that has just 

 passed, business continued to hold out 

 well. The temperature fell at times 

 during the week as low as 38 degrees, 

 causing a few growers to be somewhat 

 anxious about the stock planted out- 

 doors. In the cut flower market the 

 best business was done on Friday, May 

 28, in connection with Memorial day. 

 The peony crop was about in its glory 

 at this time and the peonies were 

 cleaned up at prices ranging from $1.50 

 to $5 per hundred. Carnations and 

 roses also were in good demand. Lots 

 of weigelas and other outdoor stock 

 were also offered in the markets. Plant 

 sales were good; almost everything in 

 the flowering line was bought. There 

 seems to be a scarcity of geraniums 

 among some of the growers this season, 

 judging from the many inquiries being 

 made for plants of blooming size. 



The retail stores nearly all report a 

 satisfactory Memorial day business and 

 a good many say trade was a consid- 

 erable improvement on the correspond- 

 ing period of last year, not only at 

 Memorial day, but throughout the 

 spring. 



Various Notes. 



George Cook had a heavy cut of 

 peonies on Saturday, May 29, and 

 quickly disposed of all of them at his 

 stall in the Lexington market. 



A. Spath, Jr., & Son are busy build- 

 ing and repairing at their place near 

 Roland Park. They are erecting a new 

 house, 30x80, and a storage building, 

 16x35, and are also extending and re- 

 pairing their other houses. They are 

 replacing all walls formerly of wood 

 with concrete and iron. 



Chas. H. Cook has purchased a new 

 Ford touring car. Having converted his 

 first one into a delivery car, he found 

 he had to have another for pleasure 



'ise. ,, „ , 



Max A. Fierstein, of the Moore Seed 

 Co., Philadelphia, aud Charles S. Ford, 

 representing A. Herrmann, New York, 

 were callers during the week. 



M. Wells featured red, white and 

 blue wrapped fiber chenille wreaths for 

 his Memorial day trade. 



G. A. Lotze, Jr., is cutting outdoor 

 sweet peas at his place near Glen- 

 burnie. 



The police force is attempting to 

 keep the street fakers off the streets 

 in the shopping district. The fakers 

 claim that as long as they hold the per- 

 mission of the abutting property own- 

 ers they are privileged to occupy a part 

 of the curb, while the police claim that 

 they blockade the streets and obstruct 

 traffic. W. F. E.
