The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



JCNB 11, 1908. 



WASHINGTON. 



State of Business. 



Commencements, wedding decorations, 

 ■and the Confederate memorial day made 

 up the week's business. Stock is not so 

 good. The carnations and roses look like 

 the "good old summer time." 



Qttb Meeting. 



The club meeting June 2 was not so 

 well attended as the last meeting. The 

 hall is not suitable, as no shows could 

 be had in the rooms secured. The com- 

 mittee was instructed to try to secure 

 a regular meeting place that will be suit- 

 able for exhibits and social sessions. 



Mr. Gude, as chairman of the Sunday 

 closing committee, made a report as to 

 the bill not coming up before the house 

 last session and recommended that before 

 the next session, the club have a special 

 meeting and every member of the club 

 have a chance to express himself, as he 

 did not think that two or three should 

 act for the club until it was thoroughly 

 discussed. The report was accepted by 

 the club. The fall chrysanthemum show 

 was talked of as a reminder to the grow- 

 ers. 



Variota Notes. 



The worm that caused havoc at the 

 Gude and Kramer houses last fall has 

 again made its appearance, but is being 

 held in check. 



The Gude Bros. Co. has its new houses 

 under way. The first two are being 

 glazed. The company is putting up five 

 rose houses, 40x200, and a palm house 

 60x160 and twenty-five feet high. Two 

 boilers of 125 horse-power each are 

 being installed. Three of these houses 

 will be planted with Beauties, one with 

 the new rose. My Maryland, and one 

 with Enchanter, the shell pink rose that 

 has been grown for the last five years. 

 A sight to see at this place is a huge 

 stephanotis vine grown between two rose 

 houses. The cut averages about 300 

 sprays of blossoms daily, which are used 

 to advantage. A great deal is shipped 

 out of town for wedding work. 



The Washington Florists Co. is cut- 

 ting a fine lot of white phlox. 



From present indications the local flo- 

 rists will be well represented at the con- 

 vention at Niagara Falls. 



Everything looks rosy for a large turn- 

 out at the bowling team's excursion 

 June 18. 



Wm. F. Gude and family are sojourn- 

 ing at Philadelphia at present and will 

 probably take a run over to Atlantic 

 City. O. O. 



Bangor, Pa. — Samuel S. Stone has re- 

 cently been enlarging his greenhouses, on 

 First street.
