The Weekly Florists' Review* 



1i£abch 12, 1908. 



TOLEDO, OHIO. 



Funeral work came to the rescue of lo- 

 cal florists last week and helped make 

 the business of that period better than 

 it has been for months. Two prominent 

 citizens passed away, and each funeral 

 called for an exceptionally large number 

 df floral offerings. " George Heinl re- 

 ceived a large share of the work, and 

 Mr. Heinl 's assistants worked until mid- 

 night each night. The Schoen Floral Co. 

 enjoyed a good business in its new store. 

 The Wisner Floral Co. did a better busi- 

 ness than for some time, and, in fact, 

 every local florist reports an increase of 

 trade. 



One of the largest orders for one oc- 

 casion in months was given by the King 

 Furniture Co., which opened its new 

 Store March 7.. A number of large floral 

 pieces, horseshoes, four-leaf clovers and 

 other designs, were made on the order of 

 those interested in the firm, and decorat- 

 ed the windows. The Peck, Wisner and 

 Heinl companies furnished the flowers 

 and designs. H. L. S. 



LANCASTER, N. Y. 



W. J. Palmer & Son are soon to add 

 three new greenhouses to their plant 

 here. Superintendent Barnard Myers 

 was recently in Chicago getting estimates 

 for the framework, which will take 35,- 

 000 feet of glass, which was purchased 

 ■ome time ago. The plant has now 300,- 

 000 feet of glass, heated by seven boilers, 

 which consume about 1,600 tons of coal 

 per year. The industry is the main one 

 in Lancaster. The payroll for the local 

 greenhouse and the Palmer stores in Buf- 

 falo is about $500 per week. The firm 

 will engage in wholesale business after 

 next year, as well as retail. 



NEW LONDON, WIS. 



E. H. Olson has bought sixty acres 

 of land just south of the city limits, 

 upon the Hortonville road, including a 

 fine residence and buildings, of M. S. 

 Gorman, and will as soon as possible 

 transfer his business to that site. He 

 will first erect three new greenhouses of 

 about the size of the two he now has in 

 the city. When these are completed the 

 Btock will be transferred from the old 

 plant to the new, and then the two old 

 houses will be moved out, giving him a 

 total of five on the new site. In addi- 

 tion to his greenhouse business, Mx. 

 Olson proposes to branch out into orna- 

 mental nursery stock, and will this year 

 lay out ten acres for the purpose. 

 Gladiolus bulbs will receive some of his 

 attention, the land being especially 

 soited for growing them for the trade.
