The Weekly Florists' Review. 



August 8, 1907. 



BUFFALO. 



The Market. 



Things are moving slowly. Still, busi- 

 ness has been better the last week or 

 two and the scarcity of stock is marked. 



Various Notes. 



During the spell when stock fell off, 

 W. J. Palmer & Son had an effective 

 window display of water lilies in basins. 

 The show attracted much attention and 

 was admired greatly. 



One of the striking features of the 

 outdoor planting which is contrary to 

 the rules of the florists' trade is a bed 

 of begonias in the open sun. The bed 

 gets no shade whatever and is just one 

 mass of blooms. 



J. R. Cloudsley is about to start on his 

 vacation. He is to take the St. Law- 

 rence trip. 



As convention time draws near we find 

 that a good delegation is to attend. 



Asters indoors would seem to many to 

 be a waste of space and money, but we 

 have one instance where it proved not 

 to be so. John Preesac, a grower of 

 Corfu, N. Y., took possession of some 

 houses in the early spring, and a little 

 later, not knowing how to use the space, 

 planted some asters, namely, Bodding- 

 ton 's Queen of the Market and the Early 

 White. The flowers have been in bloom 

 two weeks now, with stems fifteen to 

 eighteen inches long. They find ready sale 

 and at good prices simply because there 

 is nothing else so good. We believe this 

 to be a money-maker if you have the 

 room. '^- ^- ^• 



BUFFALO TO PHILADELPHLV. 



Daniel B. Long calls attention to the 

 fact that on August 16 the Pennsylvania 

 railroad will sell tickets from Buffalo to 

 Atlantic City and return for $10 round 

 trip. A stop-over of ten days will be 

 allowed at Philadelphia on the going 

 trip, if passengers deposit their tickets 

 with the ticket agent at Broad Street 

 station, Philadelphia, immediately after 

 arrival, and on return trip within 15-day 

 limit, without depositing tickets. 



As Niagara Falls excursions at cheap 

 rates are common, Mr. Long suggests 

 that for those who care to leave for the 

 convention as early as August 16, this 

 rate may be attractive. 



WASHINGTON. 



There is no change in business this 

 week, but stock is somewhat improved. 



F. H. Kramer is cutting a fine lot of 

 gladioli. 



Hardy hydrangeas and rudbeckias are 

 coming in and are seen in all the win- 

 dows. 



Gude Bros. Co. is cutting some fine 

 Kiuarney roses. This firm has one of 

 its windows filled with pans of dionsa, 

 Venus fly traps. They attract a great 

 deal of attention. They sell at $1 per 

 6-inch pan. 



Otto Bauer and family have returned 

 from down the bay. O. O. 



Catlix, III. — Scott Morris has his 

 greenhouse completed and is preparing 

 to open for business. 



Shenandoah, Ta. — O. B. Stevens has 

 been visiting a brother at Goodland, 

 Kan., where he has not been since 1890. 



The "Review will send Herrington's 

 Chrysanthemum Book, with complete 

 cultural details, on receipt of 50 cents.
