The Weekly Florists' Review^ 



August 26, 1009. 



LEXINGTON, KY. 



The Market 



Business continues extremely quiet and 

 a good many flowers remain unsold. As- 

 ters are arriving in larger quantities, but 

 the most of them are small flowers with 

 short stems. Tuberose stalks are in good 

 supply, but they have slow sales at pres- 

 ent. Green goods are in good supply 

 and demand. 



Various Notes. 



Lucien Le Clere, formerly manager of 

 the South Broadway Greenhouses, has 

 left the city, to locate in the west. 



John Ballow, of Frankfort, Ky., has 

 returned from a trip to Ohio and In- 

 diana. 



The florists here were all well pleased 

 with what they saw at the convention. 



Mrs. Ida Coates, who for twenty-five 

 years has been connected with the store 

 of W. S. Bell, the Main street florist, 

 and who is widely known in Lexington, 

 has accepted the position of manager 

 of the store of the Atlanta Floral Co., 

 at Atlanta, Ga., and will go to that 

 city to enter upon her duties September 

 1. Mrs. Coates knows the cut flower 

 business thoroughly, is always obliging 

 and has a gracious manner that has 

 won hundreds of friends for the 

 establishment with which she has so 

 long been connected. Her many friends 

 here, while regretting her departure, wish 

 her success in her new field.

APPEAL TO KENTUCKY FLORISTS 



The Kentucky State Fair management 

 has expended $250,000 in fitting up one 

 of the most elaborate fair grounds in the 

 country. The fair will be held Septem- 

 ber 13 to 18, at Louisville. In order to 

 make our industry a credit to our pro- 

 fession and to advance the interest in 

 floriculture in our state, it is desired that 

 all fiorists of the state who can in any 

 way make a display of either cut fiowers 

 or plants shall do so, and compete for the 

 prizes offered. In case you cannot do 

 this, or attend in person, if you will send 

 any cut flowers for Thursday, September 

 16, as an advertisement, our decorator, 

 Mr. Wright, will be in daily attendance 

 and will properly stage your display, 

 with any card for advertisement you may 

 furnish, providing you notify the under- 

 signed by September 10,
