The Weekly Florists' Review. 



'.'I'V ■ 



January 14, 1909. 



WASHINGTON. 



State of Trade. 



' Business was not so good last week. 

 There is general complaint among the 

 store men. Stock of all kinds is plenti- 

 ful, roses particularly so. 



The Gude Bros. Co. is cutting some of 

 the finest Killarney and Maryland ever 

 seen in this vicinity. A vase of Maryland 

 shown January 8 had stems four feet 

 nine inches long. This firm also is cut- 

 ting some fine white lilac. 



Various Notes. 



Geo. Cook had a large dinner for Sena- 

 itor Depew January 5, using 200 Killar- 

 ney roses and white lilac, and the next 

 day he had another for the same table, 

 • using jonquils and mignopette. 



At the reception given by Secretary 

 Bonaparte the centerpiece was worth 

 special mention. It was made of yellow 

 roses, cypripediums and oncidiums. 

 Poinsettias were used through the house. 

 The work was done by Z. D. Blackistone. 



Clark Bros., on the Bladeiiburg road, 

 are sending in some good double poin- 

 settias. 



Small & Sons had the decoration for 

 the Townsend ball in honor of Miss Ethel 

 Eoosevelt. This was an elaborate affair. 

 The decorations extended over the two 

 floors. Lilacs, azaleas and palms, Ameri- 

 can Beauty and Killarney roses were 

 used by the hundreds. It required six 

 van loads of blooming stuff alone and 

 two bads of palms. 



Another affair of last week was the 

 Bachelors' German at the New Willard 

 hotel. The entire banquet hall was done 

 in red and green, poinsettias and 

 Beauties. The 250 corsages were of red 

 carnations and the 250 boutonnieres of 

 the same color. 



The regular club meeting for February 

 was ladies' night. At the business meet- 

 ing Henry Trail, of Frederick, Md. ; John 

 Allen and , Albert .. Esch were elected to 

 membership. The flower show commit- 

 tee made its final report, showing a good 

 balance on the right side of the ledger. 

 Gude Bros. Co. exhibited a vase of My 

 Maryland roses, and the awards commit- 

 tee, John Bobinson, Geo. Cook and Peter 

 Bisset, gave it a special first-class certifi- 

 cate. After the adjournment there was 

 a program of music and dancing, fol- 

 lowed by refreshments. 



W. K. Smith, who has been quite ill, is 

 on the mend. 



This has been a week of visitors. S. 

 S. Pennock, Mr. Meehan, Mr. Fancourt, 

 Mr. Bayersdorfer, Jr., Martin Heukauf, 

 Mr. Eschner and Mr. Skidelsky, all of 

 Philadelphia, were here. O. O.
