The Weekly Florists' Review* 



July 16, 1908. 



DAYTON, OHIO. 



State of Trade. 



Trade took a gradual drop after the 

 busy month of June and at the present 

 time it la down to its usual standard, 

 such as the florist realizes each season at 

 this time of the year. Some days busi- 

 ness will be somewhat brisk and others 

 exceedingly quiet. These conditions, 

 however, are governed by the demand 

 for funeral work. 



The carnation crops are getting 

 smaller every day, as the old plants which 

 have done their share in the last year 

 are being hurried to the dump and new 

 ones taking their place. The roses have 

 been doing exceptionally well the last 

 two weeks, but at present they are under 

 the influence of another spell of exceed- 

 ingly hot weather and are gradually be- 

 coming scarcer, although Kaiserin is 

 plentiful and still holds its usual popu- 

 larity among the florists as a good sum- 

 mer rose. Jn about a week's time we 

 will have home-grown asters on the mar- 

 ket, which will be gratefully received. 



Various Notes. 



Mr. Lempke, of W. W. Barnard Co., 

 Chicago, called at Dayton again and was 

 a guest at the home of George Barthol- 

 omew July 12. 



Vacations are now in order and sev- 

 eral of our florists are taking advantage 

 of it. W. G. Matthews has recently re- 

 turned from Chicago, where he spent a 

 few days. 



A mo Hendrichs returned from New 

 York City July 13, where he has been 

 spending a month. Mr. Hendrichs says 

 he had a fine time. 



D. Rusconi, of Cincinnati, was one of 

 last week 's visitors. R. A. B. 



ROCKFORD, ILL. 



Frank Fernback, who for the last nine 

 years has had charge of J. J. Soper's 

 greenhouses, on North Church street, is 

 now associated with C. H. Woolsey, in 

 charge of his greenhouses at East State, 

 Longwood and Charles streets. Mr. 

 "Woolsey is certain that he has thus se- 

 cured an expert assistant, as Mr. Fern- 

 back is acknowledged to be one of the 

 best florists in the city. 



Mr. Woolsey will soon build two more 

 houses, 8x45 and 27x55, both for grow- 

 ing carnations. The John C. Moninger 

 Co., of Chicago, has the order for the 

 material. 



Amherst, Mass. — The trustees of the 

 Massachusetts Agricultural College have 

 published a notice to contractors, in- 

 viting proposals for the erection of a 

 range of greenhouses on the college 

 grounds.
