The Weekly Florists' Review* 



Fbbbdaby 20, 1908. 



INDIANAPOLIS. 



Current G)minent 



Business conditions during the last 

 week have been fair. St. Valentine 's day 

 helped considerably. Violets were the 

 favorite flower. Ked carnations were also 

 extensively used. There was a fair de- 

 mand for roses and pot plants. 



The anticipated trip to Kichmond has 

 been postponed from February 19 to 

 February 26. All parties interested will 

 please take notice. With good weather, 

 quite a number of the city florists will 

 make the trip, which is always instructive 

 and enjoyable. 



Henry W. Rieman has a fine lot of cy- 

 clamens and cinerarias in popular sizes 

 and has had great success in disposing of 

 them. The cyclamens are especially fine, 

 being grown from the best imported seed, 

 and they show the care that has been 

 bestowed on them. 



The new lights installed in the Tom- 

 linson market add much to its appearance 

 and show the flowers to greater advan- 

 tage than formerly. 



The City Florists' Club met at H. W. 

 Rieman 's February 12. Quite a number 

 turned out and spent a social evening to- 

 gether. The meeting next month will be 

 at Fred Hukriede's place. 



Mr. Stuart, of Anderson, and Chas. 

 Knopf, of Richmond, were in the city on 

 business this week. S. 



AURORA, ILL. 



The new range of greenhouses just 

 completed by the W. B. Davis Co. is said 

 by visitors to have the finest heating sys- 

 tem ever installed in a greenhouse estab- 

 lishment. The entire plant of 100,000 

 feet of glass is heated from one boiler- 

 room, containing four steam boilers of 

 100 horse-power each. The Morehead 

 trap system is used, but the entire steam 

 fitting system is laid out in a way that 

 is quite different from the usual plan. 

 The ideas are original, being conceived 

 and executed by the members of the com- 

 pany. The system is well worth investi- 

 gating by anyone interested in up-to-date 

 ideas in heating. H. G. 



Jacksonville, Fla. — Sawyer & Payne 

 are preparing to build three or four 

 greenhouses and set out quite an exten- 

 sive nursery. 



Raleigh, N. C. — J. L. O'Quinn has 

 filed a complaint with the corporation 

 commission against the Southern Express 

 Co., on account of the discontinuance of 

 express service on certain trains. Mr. 

 O'Quinn alleges that his trade with the 

 east and west has been injured by the 

 withdrawal of the service from these 

 trains.
