The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



July 18, 1007, 



complete the work of planting 4,500 

 American Beauties this week. The stock 

 is in fine condition. 



Charles W. Jennings is ill with ty- 

 phoid fever in the Jewish hospital. 



A. Farenwald, of Roslyn, has planted 

 his rebuilt range with American Beau- 

 ties and Killarney. His older range is 

 devoted to 10,000 Richmond, some thou- 

 sands of Liberty and a few experiments. 



Herbert G. Tull, of the Henry A. 

 Dreer Co., has chartered the steamer 

 Columbia for the excursion of the S. 

 A. F„ August 21. The Columbia holds 

 3,000 people, which will make it abso- 

 lutely safe. Should the delegation reach 

 1,500, or even 2,000, even the most timid 

 need not feel that the boat is over- 

 crowded. 



Bowline. 



The games to decide the places on the 

 team to represent this city at the con- 

 vention next month have been begun. 

 The first series of three were rolled on 

 the club alleys in Horticultural hall, 

 the second in the Terminal alleys. Thir- 

 teenth and Filbert streets. Following 

 are the scores:

Joseph G. Neidinger has removed from 

 1438 North Tenth street to 1513 and 1515 

 Germantown avenue, his business having 

 increased to such an extent that he was 

 obliged to procure larger quarters. The 

 building is a thoroughly modern one and 

 he has a space of 2,500 square feet for 

 the manufacture and drying of wheat 

 sheaves and the facilities for the wax 

 design work are such as will permit an- 

 other considerable expansion in the busi- 

 ness. 



THE MICHELL TROPHY. 



The accompanying illustration shows 

 the novel trophy selected by the H. F. 

 Michell Co. to be contested for annual- 

 ly by the bowling clubs at the conven- 

 tion of the Society of American Flo- 

 rists, and to become the property of the 

 club winning it three times. It will be 

 offered first for the tournament at Phil- 

 adelphia during the convention to be 

 held there August 20 to 23. 



The trophy is a plaque of Flemish 

 oak, fourteen inches long and twelve 

 and one-half inches wide, on which is 

 applied a hand-wrought copper shield. 

 This, in turn, is embellished with a solid 

 silver shield, on which is etched a series 

 of bowling alleys and a bowler about 

 to roll a ball. The details of the etch- 

 ing are particularly interesting. The 

 perspective is perfect, while even such 

 small details as the score board, sponge 

 and cup, sand box and hand cloth are 

 not omitted. In each corner of the 



The Michell Bowling Trophy, 



Flemish oak background is applied a 

 massive solid silver bowling ball, on 

 which will be engraved each year the 

 name of the successful club.
