Florists' Review 



.olHO When Wiitina; Advertlaera 



inent business man of Toledo, Mr. Schoen 

 furnished a revolving chair, made of pur- 

 ple and white asters. H. L. S. 



DENVER. 



State of Business. 



Summer quietness has been the experi- 

 ence of the last week, with the excep- 

 tion of funeral work, which breaks the 

 spell occasionally, but for all that, busi- 

 ness has been fairly good and compares 

 favorably with last year. Weather con- 

 ditions have been variable, but mostly 

 warm, the humidity being greater than 

 usual for Denver. Flowers are not over- 

 plentiful, excepting sweet peas, which 

 are abundant and can be had for $1 

 per thousand. Asters are also fairly 

 plentiful, and some good ones are seen, 

 especially in white and pink. Carnations 

 are still with us and are good for so late 

 in the season, the ruling price being 1% 

 cents and 2 cents. 



Boses, while they are still to be had, 

 .are not of exceptional quality. Beau- 

 ties are getting better every day and are 

 almost enough for the demand. Dahlias 

 have appeared, and some are good, but 

 there is nothing yet to create much de- 

 mand. 



There is now plenty of green — bunches 

 of asparagus about twice the size of 

 the winter standard with the price about 

 the same. 



As yet we hear little talk of the con- 

 vention, and no great number are talk- 

 ing of attending. J. A.' Valentine, how- 

 ever, is one who seldom misses.

PEORIA, ILL. 



Current Comment 



Work on the four new greenhouses 

 being built by D. U. Augspurger & Sons 

 is progressing. M. D. Augspurger, su- 

 perintendent of the growing department, 

 reports their July business far in excess 

 of that of the same month last year. The 

 firm has just received a large shipment 

 of bay trees and palms. 



Frank Jerabek disposed of a large lot 

 of 2-inch Mme. Salleroi and Sprengeri 

 to a local wholesale firm. 



Walter Craig, with D. U. Augspurger 

 & Sons, was on the sick list the first 

 part of the week. 



M. D. Augspurger was a business 

 caller at Pekin, 111., Friday. He secured 

 a quantity of stock from Mrs. Schwab, 

 of Cedar Park. 



The heat in Peoria and vicinity dur- 

 ing the last week has been intense, mak- 

 ing work under glass very uncomfortable. 



Mr. Miller, of Prospect Heights, a 

 Peoria suburb, will plant nothing but 

 carnations and violets this year. Mr. 

 Miller has achieved a wide reputation as 

 a violet grower. H. C. B. 



The will of James Cole, deceased, has 

 been admitted to probate, but the local 

 papers say there is every indication that 

 it will be contested, as one son, Joseph, 

 was cut off without a penny. The estate 

 is valued at many thousands of dollars, 

 the personal property alone being worth 

 $15,000. James Cole, Jr., and Nelson 

 Cole are the sole heirs, the estate being 

 divided equally between them. It is ex- 

 pected that the disinherited son will at- 

 tempt to break the will.
