The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



July 29, 1809. 



BALTIMORE. 



The Market 



The good old summer time is here, 

 with all the hot weather frills, thunder 

 storms and other fixings that belong to 

 this season. Business is down to about 

 its lowest ebb — a little doing here and 

 there all the time, but not enough to 

 pay expenses. The weather has been 

 • almost overwhelming and the plants have 

 often looked thirsty. Fortunately, we 

 are having a few showers; otherwise our 

 plants would burn. 



Asters are surely slow in coming into 

 bloom, so also is Golden Glow. Dahlias 

 are arriving fairly well, but with rather 

 short stems. Carnations are still coming 

 in, but are poor. Roses are in fairly 

 good supply, especially Cochets. Phlox 

 are more plentiful. Gladioli are showing 

 up well. 



Various Notes. 



The convention is now the main topic. 

 Quite a number are going, with some 

 still on the fence. The delegation from 

 this city is likely to reach thirty or 

 more, which will not be so bad, consider- 

 ing the long journey. 



E. A. Vincent is to attend the regular 

 meeting of the Gardeners' and Florists' 

 Club and make some remarks in regard 

 to the trip to Cincinnati and the railroad 

 accommodations. The fare is $13.50 each 

 way, from Baltimore, on either the 

 Pennsylvania or the Baltimore & Ohio 

 railroad. For a party of ten traveling 

 together on one ticket, the rate will be 

 $11.10 per capita. Pullman $3 extra in 

 each case. The Washington delegation is 

 expected to travel on the same train, 

 which will be over the Baltimore & Ohio, 

 leaving Baltimore on Monday, August 

 16, at 8 a. m. Q. 



MOLINE, ILL. 



Contracts to erect the Staack green- 

 houses on a 12-acre tract, bought early 

 in the spring, a quarter of a mile east 

 of Watertown, have been awarded. In- 

 cluding the cost of the grounds and the 

 money that will be expended in build- 

 ings, it is roughly estimated the Staacks 

 will spend $20,000 in developing their 

 business so as to enable them to branch 

 out from retailers to wholesalers. 



There will be a brick boiler-house 

 34x60. Tliere will be a separate build- 

 ing for a pumping station to supply 

 water for the greenhouses. Either four 

 or five houses will be erected, and a mod- 

 ern residence is also to be built.
