The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



Januabt 17, 1907. 



NEW ORLEANS. 



The first convention of the Society of 

 Southern Florists will be held in New 

 Orleans, February 14 to 16, All florists, 

 nurserymen, supply houses and manufac- 

 turers are cordially invited to make ex- 

 hibits. The south offers a vast field for 

 every branch of the florists' business. 

 While distance has kept southern florists 

 away from northern conventions, they 

 will all come to New Orleans during the 

 Mardi Gras and the exUbits will be seen. 

 New acquaintances will be made and new 

 business will be the result. Communicate 

 at once with the undersigned committee, 

 who will take care of your exhibit. 



Price of space is as follows: Twenty- 

 five square feet, $5; fifty square feet, 

 $10; 100 square feet, $15, payable in ad- 

 vance. Freight on all exhibits must be 

 prepaid. Cartage to the exhibition hall 

 at cost. Certificates of merit will be 

 awarded to valuable novelties and mer- 

 itorious exhibits in all classes. Address 

 Ed Baker, 2263 Carondelet street, chair- 

 man. For entrance fee and badge send 

 before February 1 to Joseph Steckler 

 Seed Co., Ltd., 512 Gravier street. 



An elavorate program is being ar- 

 ranged and at the different meetings 

 some papers will be read by florists from 

 Louisiana, Texas, Florida and other 

 states. The principal subjects will be: 

 "Ways and Means for the Advancement 

 of Horticulture in the South," "Rose 

 Growing Under Glass in the South," 

 "What the South Can Grow Profitably 

 for the Northern Markets," "Packing 

 and Shipping Express Rate," "Injuri- 

 ous Insects and Remedies," "School 

 Gardens," "Profitable Orchids for the 

 Florists ' ' and ' ' Chrysanthemum Growing 

 in the South." Circulars are being 

 mailed to the trade and, no doubt, this 

 first convention will be the beginning of 

 a strong organization which will advance 

 the horticultural interests all over the 

 United States. M. M.L. 



MONTREAL. 



The market here is having a short sup- 

 ply of good roses, with prices ranging 

 high. Carnations are arriving in good 

 supply and of excellent quality. Violets 

 are plentiful. 



J. S. Murray had the decorations for 

 the ladies' dinner at the Mount Royal 

 Club. They were entirely of Beauties 

 and lily of the valley. 



Miss Cairns has been busy on funeral 

 designs and cut flowers. 



Hall & Robinson had the decorations 

 for the Bachelors' ball at the Hotel 

 Windsor. They used greens and spring 

 flowers. 



D. J. Sinclair has been busy handling 

 large quantities of bulb stock, tulips and 

 daffodils, finding a ready sale. He is 

 also handling a fine lot of extra special 

 Beauties and violets from the United 

 States. His eastern shipping trade has 

 been increasing rapidly and customers 

 find it exceedingly convenient. W. G. 



The Review is the florists' best paper.

"Your machines are dolnR 

 fine work and I am well 

 pleased with them," is what 

 a New Orleans florist writes 

 us. "I did not remit sooner 

 because I wished to give 

 your machine a good trial. 

 I will say that your machinf 

 works fine. It is doing bet- 

 ter work than the that 



I have in my other house,' 

 is what a Michigan florist 

 writes. Free circular.
