The Weekly Florists^ Review^ 



June 18, 1908. 



BALTIMORE. 



The Market. 



Baltimore is having a hot, dry spell, 

 which is disastrous to carnations. A 

 number of the growers have started to 

 water them. There was a good demand 

 for cut flowers last week for funeral 

 work for the victims of the terrible 

 wreck on the new Baltimore, Washing- 

 ton & Annapolis Electric road. The cars 

 were running at forty miles an hour 

 when they met a special car which was 

 crowded with passengers for the Naval 

 Academy ball. There were ten killed 

 and twenty-two hurt. The general su- 

 perintendent was seriously hurt, and his 

 daughter was killed. This is a single 

 track road to Annapolis. 



The commencement exercises have kept 

 the florists busy of late. Carnations are 

 showing the effect of the hot weather. 

 They are small and full of red spider. 



There will not be so many mums 

 planted this season as last. Yellow is 

 scarce everywhere. 



Various Notes. 



The Gardeners' Club bowling team is 

 going over to Washington June 20, to 

 bowl several games with the Washing- 

 ton florists. 



W. O. Stran has sold his property on 

 the Old York road to the city as a site 

 for a public school, and he has bought 

 five acres at Carney, on the Harford 

 road. 



The Gardeners' Club went to Blen- 

 heim, the country seat of Wm. Lanahan 

 at Govanstown, June 11. There were 

 over 100 members present. This was 

 the third visit of the club and they had 

 a royal good time. Chas. L. Seybold, 

 superintendent of Carroll park, . had 

 charge of the sports. They had a po- 

 tato race, a sack race and a ball game. 

 At 6 o'clock all assembled on the spa- 

 cious lawns, where refreshments were 

 served. Mrs, Lanahan was presented 

 with a handsome bunch of Beauties by 

 N. F, Flitton, the secretary of the club, 



Mr. Ufler gave an interesting talk at 

 the last meeting on how to force aspara- 

 gus under glass. Q. 



Alton, III. — Joseph Krug & Sons se- 

 cured the contract for the beautifying of 

 the courthouse grounds at Edwardsville, 

 111. The contract was awarded by the 

 supervisors of public buildings. 



North Adams, Mass, — A greenhouse 

 is being erected at the normal school, 

 for the use of the department of agri- 

 culture which has recently been organ- 

 ized as a part of the school course.
