The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



June 4, 1908. 



RAQNE^WIS. 



The Racine Floral Co. is the name of 

 a new firm of experienced florists who 

 have just purchased the Fidler & Adams 

 greenhouses, on Asylum avenue. It is 

 the intention of the new proprietors to 

 expend a large sum of money in making 

 extensive additions to the greenhouses 

 and equipping them so as to compare 

 favorably .with any of the larger estab- 

 lishments in the northwest. 



Mrs. E. Miller, an experienced deco- 

 rator, who for several years had charge 

 of the decorations at Hotel Pfister, Mil- 

 waukee, will be associated with the firm 

 and will have charge of the floral de- 

 signs and decorations. 



As soon as arrangements can be made 

 the company will establish a downtown 

 office. 



LYNN, MASS. 



The May meeting of the Houghton 

 Horticultural Society, held in the lec- 

 ture room at the Public Library, Tues- 

 day evening, May 26, proved to be most 

 instructive as well as interesting. Mau- 

 rice Fuld, of Marblehead, a member of 

 the society, and a representative of W. 

 W. Eawson & Co., was present, and 

 gave a talS on his work. 



Being connected with such a promi- 

 nent firm as Eawson & Co., and sec- 

 retary of the New England Dahlia So- 

 ciety, Mr. Fuld was naturally in a po- 

 sition to impart considerable valuable 

 information to the large audience which 

 gathered at the library and for over an 

 hour held the undivided attention of 

 those present. At the outset Mr. Fuld 

 spoke of the development of the seed 

 business in Boston, and in various ways 

 showed how the large firms handle their 

 business. A contrast was made in the 

 business of twenty years ago and that 

 of today, the speaker believing that a 

 great amount of the increase was due to 

 the good work performed by horticultural 

 societies, such as the one in Lynn. 



Janesville Wis. — The three large 

 greenhouses which have been erected for 

 C. G. Dwight, at Jackman and East 

 streets, are now almost ready for plant- 

 ing. The glass for these houses, amount- 

 ing to 35,000 square feet, was furnished 

 by the Pittsburgh Plate Glass Co.
