stalled this week. Grand palms and 

 foliage plants add to the superb fur- 

 nishings, and altogether there is no more 

 roomy, elegant and complete florists' 

 store in the city. Up at his nursery in 

 New Rochelle is an abundance of choice 

 retinisporas, Japan cedars and blue 

 spruce, well worth a visit. At the great 

 naval review last week, Mr. McConnell 

 took a large party in his yacht up and 

 down the line, giving a splendid view of 

 the nation 's magnificent defenders. 



Mr. Hanft, formerly T;ith Thos. 

 Young, Jr., now is with Flcischman in 

 his Fifth avenue store. The window 

 display here is prominent and novel. 

 His latest novelty in all his stores is 

 his nursery rhyme ' ' Flower Boxes, ' ' a 

 unique attraction. Rumor credits Flcisch- 

 man with another stand in the Wall 

 street section, close to the big, hand- 

 some store of Van Praag, where Leon- 

 ard Becker, formerly with Small, is in 

 charge. Mr. Van Praag is greatly 

 pleased with his success down among the 

 bulls and bears. 



The favorite window dressing with all 

 the retailers this season seems to be the 

 graceful cibotium fern. It is every- 

 where, and is being grown now by all 

 the prominent plant wholesalers of this 

 section. 



The retail windows grow more attrac- 

 tive weekly. Small & Sons still main- 

 tain a wonderful water lily display. 



Truman C. Flagler, of Poughkeepsie, 

 has opened a retail store at 926 Fulton 

 street, Brooklyn. He will have an abund- 

 ance of violets and carnations from his 

 own greenhouses, and in the best part 

 of the City of Churches, should build 

 up an excellent trade. The store has 

 been thoroughly refurnished and has 

 been established since 1892. 



Mr. Bowe and family are tuck from 

 the sea shore, and the handsome store

The Market 



Business is good for this season of 

 the year. There is not much doing in 

 the cut flower market but all good stock 

 sells well and the wholesalers are busy 

 with bulb and supply shipments. There 

 is every indication that we are now at 

 the opening of a brisk winter's business, 

 for the territory which takes supplies 

 from this market steadily is widening 



and the business within the radius con- 

 stantly is developing. 



Variotn Notes. 



The craft picnicked Sunday, Septem- 

 ber 16, on the grounds adjoining the 

 new greenhouses of the C. C, Pollworth 

 Co. Some original advertising cards 

 had been sent out and there was a good 

 attendance. Games and refreshments 

 made the afternoon most pleasant. 

 Nearly everyone won a prize. 



Louis E. Herzberg, who is at present 

 foreman for J. B. Heiss, Dayton, O., 

 and Miss Ida Gerlach were married at 

 the residence of John Valom, Lake Drive, 

 in this city, Monday, September 17. Mr. 

 Herzberg formerly was employed in some 

 of the leading greenhouses in this city, 

 also in the park system here. Although 

 he is now making his home in Dayton 

 he still is a member of the Milwaukee 

 Florists' Club and has the best wishes 

 of the trade here.
