The Florists' Review 



1 



August 6, 1914. 



PBOVIDENCE, B. I. 



The Market. 



The last week has brought no change 

 in the local market conditions, the sup- 

 ply and demand being practically 

 equally adjusted. Asters are rapidly 

 becoming the predominant feature. 

 Business is normally sluggish, funeral 

 •work giving about all the activity no- 

 ticeable. 



Various Notes. 



Matthew J. Leach, one of the best 

 known florists in Ehode Island, and his 

 two sons, Herbert A, Leach and Edward 

 I. Leach, all of Pawtucket, have filed 

 articles of association as M. J. Leach & 

 Sons, for the purpose of conducting a 

 florists' business, located at Pawtucket, 

 with a capitalization of $40,000. 



Nathan Fishelson, of Joseph Koppel- 

 man's force, and his wife are spending 

 the summer at Sharon Springs, Mass. 



Eugene Seymour is putting one of his 

 large houses at Warren to Whitman! 

 ferns. 



Smith, the Florist, has had several 

 large funeral orders recently. Among 

 these was a large standing wreath, ten 

 feet tall, for the funeral of Superintend- 

 ent of Public Buildings Steere. 



The Providence Horticultural Co. has 

 been driven with work during the last 

 week in connection with the crusade 

 on the army worm. 



Frederick Covill, formerly manager of 

 the flower department of the Shepard 

 Co., but now with a florists' concern at 

 Montreal, Can., is spending a part of 

 his vacation in this city. W. H. M. 



NEWPORT, E. I. 



Mrs. Carl Jurgens, Sr., is critically ill 

 at her residence, on Bliss Mine road. 



The receptions, dinners and other 

 social functions in connection with the 

 visit of the Duchess of Marlborough 

 have made an unusual demand for flow- 

 ers and decorations. Wadley & Smythe 

 have been exceptionally busy along 

 these lines, and the other retailers have 

 received their share of work. 



Table decorations are included in the 

 premium list of the joint show of the 

 Newport Garden Club and the Newport 

 Horticultural Society, to be held at Bel- 

 court August 1.3 to 15. The prizes for 

 this class led to the expectation of fine 

 exhibits. Other lines are well repre- 

 sented, also. W. H. M. 



Canton, HI. — George W. Jacobs is put- 

 ting in an addition to his greenhouse on 

 East Elm street. The boiler room is 

 being reconstructed, and new founda- 

 tions and a new smokestack are being 

 built..

 think it pays you to bother with your own stock when you can get 

 good 2-inch plants next winter at $18.50 per 1000. just when you 

 want them and in the right proportion of varieties to suit your demand? 

 It is our business to save you this trouble ; we grow them by the
