 honeymoon in Ohio. 



LeMoult, the veteran retailer, is mov- 

 ing to a l&rge store a few doors above 

 his old stand on the Bowery, where he 

 has held the fort for many years. T"he 

 extension of the new bridge and street 

 made the tearing down of the old land- 

 mark a necessity. 



Conventionists had an opportunity 

 of seeing F. R. Pierson's new and 

 wonderfully interesting fern, Superbis- 

 sima. There seems to be no end to the 

 voyage of discovery in ferndom in and 

 around Tarrytown. This, Mr. Pierson 

 thinks, is the greatest of his many re- 

 markable introductions. 



Philip Breitmeyer and Mrs. Breit- 

 meyer were in the city on Saturday on 

 their way to Philadelphia. If Detroit 

 insists upon having the convention next 

 year, the acceptance will lie unanimous. 

 Phil was always irresistible. 



The temporary ofSce of the F. O. 

 Pierce Co. is 30 Tiflfany Place, Brooklyn. 



The annual fair of the Richmond Coun- 

 ty Agricultural Society will be held at 

 Midland Beach, Staten Island, beginning 

 a week from Monday and continuing un- 

 til September 7. 



The Southampton, L. I., summer ex- 

 hibition begins on September 4. 



James Maloney, bookkeeper for Fro- 

 ment, is back from his two weeks' vaca- 

 tion, at Delaware Water Gap, Pa. Phil 

 Ditzenberger, of the same firm, has been 

 two weeks at the seashore with his fam- 

 ily. Arthur Wiese, another of Mr. Fro- 

 ment's force and a son-in-law of J. B. 

 Waldis, the florist of Roanoke, Va., is 

 back from a two weeks' fishing trip and 

 is superintending the improvements in 

 Mr. Froment's big store. Harry Baker 

 has spent two weeks in the Catskills and 

 announces his marriage to Miss Hoffman 

 early in the fall. 



The New York Florists' Club has 

 leased commodious rooms on the ground 

 floor of the Murray Hill Lyceum, 160 

 East Thirty-fourth street, where ample 

 space for the monthly exhibits, ladies' 

 night and all the other features 

 of interest, including the canteen, 

 has been secured. The opening night

 see a bumper house. It will be 

 convention night and many experi- 

 ences will make the session memora- 

 ble. Exhibits of all novelties will be 

 welcome. Send in care of Secretary 

 Young and do not fail to celebrate the 

 new home acquirement by your attend- 

 ance. The club should number three hun- 

 dred active members before Christmas. 



New York will have many of its vet- 

 eran bowlers at the convention and a 

 good, strong team will try to uphold the 

 record and prestige of the city in other 

 yearq when its team was invincible. 



Saturday, August 31, the Avenue 

 Floral Parade Association, of which A. 

 Warendorff is a prominent member, will 

 hold its annual fete. In the parade will 

 be gaily decorated automobiles, single 

 and double rigs, pony carts, floats and- 

 business wagons. Numberless prizes will 

 be given. Labor day will be the crown- 

 ing feature of the occasion. 



Schloss Bros., the ribbon house of New 

 York, will have their usual elaborate dis- 

 play at the Philadelphia convention. 



S. Jacobs & Sons, of 1365 Flushing 

 avenue, Brooklyn, have fully completed 

 their immense building, a four-story and 



basement brick, with capacity for a busi- 

 ness quadruple that of former years. The 

 first floor is devoted to the running of 

 the rough lumber into bars. The second 

 floor is devoted to sash. The carpenter . 

 department occupies the whole of the 

 third floor and the fourth floor is de- 

 voted to painting and glazing. The new 

 engine is 250 horse-power, with a capac- 

 ity for 400. There are two ISO-horse- 

 power boilers. In the basement are the 

 pipe fittings and boilers. Elevators con- 

 nect all floors. Business grows constant- 

 ly and the establishment is running to its 

 full capacity. The yards are filled with 

 air-dried cypress. 



The Johnston Heating Co. since its 

 installing the hot water heating plant 

 for the F. R. Pierson Co., at Scarboro, 

 a year ago, has had phenomenal success 

 and many large contracts attest its grow- 

 ing popularity.

 tion includes many of Mr. Reed's won- 

 derful inventions and novelties, as well 

 as a large display of his latest importa- 

 tions.
