The Weekly Florists' Review* 



JULT 18, 1905. 



TORONTO. 



The Market 



Business has settled down to the ordi- 

 nary summer routine. A few designs oc- 

 casionally, or a few flowers for a sick 

 friend is about all there is to the de- 

 mand. As peonies are done and outdoor 

 lilies and gladioli are not in, retail men 

 have to fall back on roses and carna- 

 tions, which are deteriorating in quality 

 with the hot weather. All the retail men 

 report June as being a fine month, the 

 number of weddings and other calls for 

 decorations making a good demand. 



Various Notes. 



Among our growers we find them all 

 busy, some tearing out their benches of 

 roses and carnations and replanting, 

 others building new greenhouses or tear- 

 ing down old ones and rebuilding. We 

 might mention in this connection that a 

 new firm is starting at Weston, under 

 the style and name of Hughes «& Jen- 

 nings.' Harry Jennings, one of the firm, 

 is son of E. Jennings, of Brampton, and 

 has been brought up in the business. He 

 has been of late years with J. Qammage 

 & Son, London, and H. Janzen, of Ber- 

 lin. The firm has bought a nice piece 

 of land at Weston and proposes to put 

 up in the neighborhood of 10,000 feet of 

 glass this summer to grow chrysanthe- 

 mums, carnations and violets. 



J. S. Simmons carried off the honors 

 for decorated turn-outs at the annual 

 open-air horse parade on July 1. Mr. 

 Simmons is quite a horse fancier and 

 takes no small degree of pride in his 

 fine horses and rigs, which, it might be 

 remarked, are quite worthy of it. 



We understand that a new store is be- 

 ing opened in what is known as our down- 

 town district, under the name of the 

 Kosery. The College Flower Shop is 

 being closed, the lease having expired 

 and the manager, Mr. Lampert, late of 

 Chicago, will be manager of the new 

 store, which is to be run by the same 

 firm. This store will be fitted up most 

 elaborately and will make a bid for the 

 best trade in Toronto. 



W. J. Lawrence has sold the lease of 

 his store at the corner of Yonge and 

 Bloor streets, having gone out of the re- 

 tail business, and will now devote his 

 whole attention to the wholesale end. 



We regret to announce that Mrs. A. E. 

 Moore, of the store styled the People's 

 Florist, is very ill with pneumonia.

CAMDEN, N. J. 



At a recent meeting of the creditors 

 of L. K. Peacock, Inc., of Atco, N. J., 

 about seventy-five per cent of the credi- 

 tors, with claims amounting to $6,600, 

 were represented. It was pointed out 

 that a receivership was imminent and 

 there was discussion of ways and means 

 to tide the company over its present dif- 

 ficulty. It was agreed by those present 

 that the cooperation of all creditors be 

 asked, th^ plan being to extend the 

 creditis to June 1, 1906, secured by a 

 mortgage made to a trustee selected by 

 the creditors. A second meeting was 

 called for July 11 at the oflSce of T. B. 

 Hall, 428 Market street, Camden. 



Baltimore, Md. — H. J. Quick will put 

 up a greenhouse 20x75 adjoining St. 

 Peter's cemetery.
