The Weekly Florists' Review* 



Seitember 19, 190". 



DENVER. 



The Market. 



Since last writing business li:is shown 

 improvement. The weather has cooled 

 off to some extent, so that the effect has 

 been good. However, it is yet a little 

 early for continued cool weather, and 

 some of the aster growers apparently 

 are afraid of frost by the way they are 

 sending them in. There is certainly no 

 shortage. Roses continue to improve. 

 Brides and Maids are in good cut at 

 present, and quality excellent for so 

 early in the season. Beauties are not 

 any too plentiful; if anything, a little 

 scarce; quality fair. There is a strong 

 call for medium lengths, of which there 

 are about enough to supply the demand. 

 Carnations are not coming in fast, 

 though there are a few, and by the end 

 of this month they will arrive in force. 

 The plants never looked better, which is 

 a good indication of a heavy crop. 



Various Notes. 



One of the largest funerals ever held 

 in Denver vias that of W. B. Ftlke, the 

 victim of automobile races on J^abor 

 day. It took five carriages to bear the 

 flowers to the grave, the floral offerings 

 being among the most numerous evt-r 

 seen in Denver. A private watchman 

 was left to guard the blossoms at the 

 grave, that they might not be destroyed 

 by vandals. 



Among our recent visitors were Emil 

 Buettner and party, of Park Ridge, III., 

 who are traveling in a special car ou 

 their return from Yellowstone park. 

 They were shown around our city by J. 

 A. Valentine, and were delighted with it. 



The Florists' Bowling League met last 

 •week and reorganized for the winter, 

 electing J. A. Valentine president and 

 G. H. Cooper secretary. They expect to 

 bowl at the Overland alleys every Mon- 

 day evening. 



John Berry, of Colorado Springs, was 

 a visitor September 13. 



J. A. Valentine and 0. X. Benson left 

 September 16 for a fishing trip on the 

 Gunnison river. 



The Colorado State Fair, just closed 

 at Pueblo, was one of the most success- 

 ful ever held. The floricultural depart- 

 ment was especially good, being under 

 the competent supervision of John Ber- 

 ry, superintendent. The exhibitors froni 

 Denver were the Park Floral Co. and 

 W, W. Wilmore, the dahlia specialist; 

 also Harry Berrv', in the amateur class. 

 The Park Floral Co. took all the first 

 premiums on plants and flowers, with 

 one exception, also all first premiums on 

 bouquets, designs and mantel decora- 

 tions, and second premium on table dec- 

 orations. Mr. Wilmore took first on 

 dahlias. Harry Berry, in the amateur 

 class, took five firsts and two seconds on 

 gladioli, phlox and perennials.
