The Weekly Florists' Review* 



Septbubeb 24, 1908. 



DAYTON, OHIO. 



State of Tra^ 



There was a marked improvement in 

 last week 's business over that of the 

 week previous. A good demand for 

 funeral Avork seems to be the cause for 

 better business. 



Carnations, which still seem a sort of 

 novelty, are becoming more plentiful 

 each day and the demand is strong. Ea- 

 chantress, Lawson and red seem to be the 

 most numerous, while white are very 

 scarce. There is still a good supply of 

 roses, but the market in its present con- 

 dition does not nearly consume the sup- 

 ply. The farmers are still bringing a 

 few asters into town on market days, 

 but they are poor in quality. Longi- 

 florums find eager buyers, and they are 

 fine. Smilax and all decorative greens 

 are selling fairly well. 



The weather conditions are a little 

 troublesome to the florists, as the days 

 are warm and the temperature drops 

 considerably toward morning, thus keep- 

 ing them busy trying to keep the mildew 

 out. The drought still continues, mak- 

 ing it over six weeks since our last 

 rain. 



Various Notes. 



Our dry goods and millinery stores 

 are having their fall openings now, there- 

 fore the florists are making good use 

 of their palms and decorative plants. 



M. Anderson, the Arcade florist, has 

 enlarged his store to twice its original 

 \ size. 



The Miami Floral Co. is doing a 

 good business on field-grown carnation 

 plants this season. 



Louis Schellhaas, of Miamisburg, O., 

 called in Dayton, September 21. He re- 

 ports business in Miamisburg to be pretty 

 good. R. A. B. 



Stratford, Conn. — C. D. Mills will 

 install a new boiler in his greenhouse.

DREER'S 



Peerless Glazing Peint 



rimproved Van lley per Perfect) ^^ 



MADE or GALVANIZED WIRE AND WILL NOT RUST 



This point has common sense features of practical value that appeal to praacticl 

 florists and are possessed by no other points. The only double point with 



BOTH BEVELS ON SAJME SIDE 



A point made on any other principle will twist in driving and cramp or crack the 

 glass. Dreer's Peerless Glazine Points will never work out. Drives true and holds 

 firmly by one blow of hammer or chisel. May be easily removed and used again in case 

 of re-glazing. 1000 sufliclent for 500 lights. Box of 1000 points 75c, postpaid. 5000 points 

 by express for $2.75.
