We received hearty congratulations from everyone who saw our magnificent 

 exhibit at the Convention at Niagara Falls. It was admittedly the finest 

 collection of Novelties and Staples in Florists' Supplies ever brought together. 

 We are proud of the fact, and we want you to know that we are working to 

 give you the best that can be had anywhere. Anything that will help you in 

 your business, we can get, no matter where it is made or by whom. That is 

 a pretty bold thing to say, but when you see our stock of Novelties you will 

 know it is the truth.

with the largest stock of green goods and 

 supplies he has ever handled and ar- 

 rangements complete for enough wild 

 smilax to decorate for every wedding 

 in New York. 



Bonnet & Blake have evidently no fear 

 of the effects of the new combination of 

 wholesalers, growers and retailers over 

 in Brooklyn and their only worry seems 

 to be the need of a larger store to meet 

 the demands of their growing business. 



A. J. Guttman says he is too busy this 

 year to attend the convention, much to 

 his regret. The big store is an inspiring 

 responsibility. Mr. Beidel has returned 

 from his outing on the continent. 



Harry Crawbuck is sending fine asters 

 to Frank S. Hicks, of West Twenty- 

 eighth street, from his farm at Chatham, 

 N. J. ; also lilies and dahlias. Mr. Hicks 

 now haa his new store complete and 

 ready for all the shipments that may 

 come to him. 



Jonatbaji Nash is summering at Sea 



Cliff, L. I. The outlook is good for 

 Moore, Hentz & Nash and everybody 

 else, Mr. Nash prophesies, this winter. 



Messrs. Seligman and Levy are both 

 back from their mountain climbing in 

 fine condition for the strain of. the bet- 

 ter times. Joe says he has a surprise 

 up his sleeve that will make some of his 

 confreres sit up and take notice. 



H. E. Froment is now holidaying and 

 enjoying a well earned rest, after all 

 his big force have had theirs. The 

 manager came back last week with a few 

 pounds extra of weight and heavy busi- 

 ness will come natural. 



It looks like an orchid year and Mc- 

 Manus at headquarters is ready for it. 

 All the years of education and strenu- 

 osity have had their legitimate effect. 

 The orchid's popularity is now uni- 

 versal; shipments go to every part of 

 the country from New York daily, and 

 there is no longer any doubt as to the 

 fact that the orchid is king. The sup' 



ply will be the largest the New York 

 market has ever handled, and the best. 

 There are no better orchidists in the 

 world than the growers within a radius 

 of twenty-five miles of this city. 



The Cooperative Flower Growers' As- 

 sociation has rented a big store at 48 

 West Twenty-seventh street. New York, 

 has already thirty stockholders, and has 

 appointed as its manager J. J. Coan. 

 September 15 is the date of launching 

 the new ship on the troublous waters of 

 New York's wholesale sea. It looks like 

 a stormy vfinter in little old New York. 

 Brooklyn also has 'put a new boat in 

 commission on its usually placid bosom. 



Bowling. 



The extreme heat kept down the at- 

 tendance at the final practice of the New 

 York Club. The team should give a good 

 account of itself at the convention. 

 Next year it is hoped the club will be 

 under the auspices of the New York 

 Society and that more general interest 

 may be maintained thereby. These are 

 the last flashes before the explosion at 

 the Falls:
