have not been here have missed some- 

 thing that they will now have a chance 

 to see and enjoy. We want to throw out 

 all the inducements we can to all the 

 florists of this great continent, so that 

 by the time it is necessary to start for 

 this city for the convention, all of them 

 will decide to come, except those few 

 who are unfortunate enough to be 

 obliged to remain at home. We want 

 all to come and we will do our best to 

 make them feel that they are welcome. 

 So make up your mind now to come, 

 and don't let anything change it. 



The baseball games to be played on 

 Friday of convention week will be of 

 unusual interest. We expect several 

 teams representing our large cities to be 

 on hand, and our local teams will be in 

 the best of shape and trained to the 

 minute, so that a battle royal may be 

 expected. We would ask that all cities 

 expecting to send teams will notify us 

 at once, so that all necessary arrange- 

 ments can be made. Address all com- 

 munications to Frank Dellar, Station F, 

 Price Hill, Cincinnati, O. 



Mrs. Maynard, of Detroit, Mich., sec- 

 retary of the Ladies' Society of Amer- 

 ican Florists, came to this city on Sun- 

 day, June 20, on business for her asso- 

 ciation. She is being entertained by 

 Mrs. L. H. Kyrk, on Price Hill. Mon- 

 day evening she will confer with the 

 local committees on entertainments, ajid 

 the final arrangements for the entertain- 

 ment of the ladies will be made. This 

 entertainment will probably be held at 

 the Ludlow Lagoon. This is a beautiful 

 pleasure garden, located near Ludlow, 

 Ky. It is situated on the banks of a 

 large lake and the surroundings are all 



that could be desired. The park is mod- 

 ern in every respect, and in it can be 

 found all the up-to-date methods of en- 

 tertainment. At the club-house can be 

 found all manner of eatables and drink- 

 ables. 



Vafiotta Notes. 



The receiver's sale of the stock and 

 greenhouses of W. K. Partridge has been 

 quite successful so far. A great por- 

 tion of the stock has been disposed of 

 at retail from a store at Fourth and 

 Race streets and good prices have been 

 realized. 



We have with us this week the Na- 

 tional Association of Turners and the 

 city is a wilderness of flags and bunt- 

 ing in their honor. The welcoming 

 "Gut Heil" is to be seen and heard 

 on all sides. Some 50,000 visitors are 

 expected. Fountain Square is a mass 

 of colored electric lights, and on Gov- 

 ernment Square an enormous stage has 

 been erected, where the various athletic 

 contests and evolutions for which the 

 Turners are famous will take place. 



Fred Gear went down to Louisville 

 with the Shriners last week and reports 

 having had a great time. 



Wm. Murphy, superintendent of the 

 trade exhibit at the convention, is re- 

 ceiving a large stack of mail every day 

 and apace is rapidly being allotted in the 

 exhibition hall. We would again advise 

 those intending to make an exhibit to 

 lose no time. It always pays to be 

 among the first. 



Frank Benson, of Indianapolis, was in 

 town Sunday and was busy visiting his 

 many friends. 



Mr. Lampert, of Xenia, O., was a 

 caller. C. J. Ohmer. 



SPRINGFIELD, OHIO. 



Current Cotaxneat 



June is the month for settlements of 

 balances on accounts between the numer- 

 ous wholesale and mail order florists in 

 this district, and it is apparent that 

 money in hand is considerably more plen- 

 tiful than for several seasons past, indi- 

 cating a return of general prosperity. 



The local retailers are now having 

 their innings with weddings, commence- 

 Tnents and various social functions there- 

 by occasioned. 



Although Charles Unglaub's plant was 

 erected and put into operation something 

 more than a year ago, the writer this 

 week made his first visit to it. It is 

 located in a territory comparatively new 

 to the trade and beyond the confines of 

 the municipality. A walk of about a 

 mile from the terminus of the car lines 

 is necessary in order to reach this place, 

 but upon arrival it is found that Mr. 

 Unglaub has practically everything to 

 be desired to make him independent upon 

 his fourteen acres of choice land, which 

 adjoins the Detroit, Toledo & Ironton 

 railway, one of the principal coal carry- 

 ing lines in this state. Various kinds 

 of soil, from clay to black loam, are to 

 be found, as well as gravel and sand, 

 and a strong, never-failing spring of 

 water makes connection with the city 

 mains unnecessary, a Standard pump giv- 

 ing it ample force and volume. A brick- 

 set boiler with a capacity of about 100 

 horse-power supplies steam to the four 

 large houses, and two similar boilers ly- 

 ing in the yard show that Mr. Unglaub 

 contemplates a gradual enlargement of 

 his capacity. Carnations exclusively are
