The Weekly Florists' Review. 



Decembeh 19, 1907. 



GREENWICH, CONN. 



The Greenwich Gardeners' Associa- 

 tion is at work laying plans for the 

 education of the children of this town 

 in the art of horticulture. As yet these 

 plans have not been thoroughly worked 

 out, but one method of stimulating in- 

 terest will be to present a plant to every 

 school child in town on th^^rst day of 

 May and let the child plant"nd care for 

 it to the best of his or her ability. In 

 the fall the association will hold a flower 

 show and give first, second and third 

 prizes in each grade to the children whose 

 plants have been best cared for. The 

 idea of introducing horticulture in one 

 way or another, into the schools, ema- 

 nated from the Society of American Flo- 

 rists. T. Y. 



DONT LOSE IT. 



You may have a little surplus stock 

 in some line — not much, perhaps, but 

 enough to cut quite a hole in the profit 

 made on the whole lot if this little sur- 

 plus is lost. But it isn't necessary to 

 lose it. Nearly always there is someone, 

 somewhere, who needs just that little 

 batch of plants. You can reach that 

 someone, everywhere, through a classified 

 advertisement in the Eeview, at a cost 

 of 10 cents a line. Everyone reads the 

 Review's clasjiified ads. Don't let the 

 little surplus go to waste. 



The Eeview will send Smith's Mum 

 Manual for 40 cents. 



I AM much taken with the Review; 

 I think it is a fine weekly for florists. — 

 M. F. Kblssy, Worcester, Mass. 



I AM sold out of gladiolus bulbs. The 

 little advertisement in the Review was a 

 good investment. — Frank KiOTZ, Bowl- 

 ing Green, Ohio. 



We have sold out of stock, thanks to 

 your classified advertisements. We have 

 nothing else to offer just now, but when 

 we have we surely shall advertise it in 

 the Review, because that means to get 

 rid of it. — France & Vandeqrift, Mon- 

 roe, Mich. 



Dallas, Tex. — The park board has 

 accepted the plans of Architect Flanders 

 for the erection of another greenhouse, 

 40x75, adjoining the present house, in 

 City park. The cost of the building has 

 been estimated as close to $3,000, though 

 the contract has not yet been awarded. 



Wellsville, O. — B. A. Mick, whose 

 greenhouses are near Glasgow, conducts 

 a retail store in town.. He was burned 

 out at his stand on the public square a 

 few weeks ago, but has secured a new 

 store on Main street near Sixth, which 

 he will conduct as the Wellsville Flower 

 Store. 



Washington, N. J. — Alonzo J. Bryan, 

 proprietor of Bryan's Flower and 

 Truck Farm, although he has been lo- 

 cated here less than two years, has 

 about 6,000 square feet of glass and 

 is doing a good business in both the 

 flower and the vegetable lines. He. 

 not only has a home trade, but is 

 shipping nearly every day to various 

 points. Mr. Bryan is greatly improving 

 his place from time to time, and it is his 

 intention in the spring to erect three 

 more greenhouses, each 281^x100 feet, 

 connected with an engine-room and pot- 

 ting shed all along the north' side. He 

 will also install a steam heating plant.
