The Florists' Review 



July 8, 1915. 



BAI.TIMOBE. 



The Market. 



Business has continued to hold up 

 fairly well, considering the warm 

 ■weather. There is still a plentiful sup- 

 ply of stock, but none of it is of extra 

 good quality, and as the demand is 

 light, prices have been correspondingly 

 low. Outdoor sweet peas are coming 

 in and are fairly good. Gladioli have 

 also made their appearance, but are 

 not selling well, even at a low figure. 

 Carnations generally are poor. Boses, 

 especially Killarney, are hard to move; 

 the street fakers offered them as low 

 as 10 cents per dozen for fair stock. 

 Asters are a little more plentiful and 

 are pretty well taken up. The spring 

 showers show their effect on dahlias, 

 some of which are of really good quality 

 for this season of the year. The re- 

 tailers have settled down to their sum- 

 mer period of inactivity, and vacation 

 thoughts are uppermost in the minds of 

 many. 



Various Notes. 



J. J. Perry returned this week from 

 a business trip to Philadelphia, where 

 he also attended the directors' meeting 

 of the Pennock-Meehan Co., for which 

 firm he is local manager. The local 

 branch announces that during the sum- 

 mer the store will close at 5 p. m. 

 instead of 6, the usual hour. 



G. A. Lotze began to cut the first lot 

 of gladioli last week; 200,000 bulbs of 

 these were planted at his Glenburnie 

 farm this year, all for summer flower- 

 ing. He can be rightly called the 

 gladiolus king of this section. 



Schroeder Bros, have purchased a 

 new automobile for pleasure use. 



F. A. Seidlich is cutting some good 

 dahlias for the early crop, from his 

 place at Woodlawn. 



Do not forget the park inspection 

 trip, July 12. The starting point will 

 be University parkway and Wyman's 

 park, at 2 p. m. It is intended to 

 spend tlic entire afternoon in this man- 

 ner and to wind up at the club rooms 

 in time for the regular meeting. It is 

 likely that only one meeting will be 

 held this month, and final arrangements 

 will l>e made at this meeting for the 

 trip to Pen Mar and the western Mary- 

 land fruit belt. W. F. E.
