The Florists* Review

Auoi/ST 20, 1914. 



ROCHESTER, N. Y. 



The Market. 



Both wholesale and retail business is 

 quiet just now and on some days it 

 seems to be at a standstill. The few 

 good showers which have fallen during 

 the last week have brightened up 

 things considerably, and the aster crop 

 is looking a hundred per cent better. 

 In many cases, owing to the drought, 

 the asters are small and short-stemmed, 

 but a few growers who are fortunate 

 enough to have any kind of sprinkling 

 system have good stock. Gladioli have 

 benefited also by the rains and they 

 are arriving in fairly large quantities, 

 but do not clear fast. Sweet peas are 

 not overplentiful, but they are of good 

 quality. A few Japanese and auratum 

 lilies are seen and are used chiefly for 

 funeral work. Easter lilies are plenti- 

 ful. There is a good supply of roses 

 on hand and good shipments arrive each 

 dav. There is no special demand for 

 American Beauties at this time. There 

 are few carnations and the quality is 

 poor. There do not seem to be any 

 large cuttings of asters. The supply of 

 greens meets all requirements. 



Various Notes. 



Bv way of change, H. E. Wilson had 

 an unusually heavy run of funeral work 

 last week. Although business in gen- 

 eral has been quiet, this store has been 

 quite busy of late. Some fine gladioli 

 are being grown. 



Miss Lillian Wheeler, of J. B. Keller 

 Sons, is away on a two weeks' vaca- 

 tion, visiting friends at Mt. Vernon, 

 L. T., and New York city. 



Joseph Werdein has just returned 

 from a week's vacation. 



The Lord & Burnham Co. has been 

 doing good business recently. Among 

 the best sales are: Mr. Benedun, Pitts- 

 burgh, Pa., material and erection of 

 iron frame house with curvilinear roof; 

 A. H. Sharman, North Warren, Pa., 

 iron-frame house, 32x150; A. H. Wil- 

 liams, Williamson, N. Y., pipe-frame 

 house, 16X.33 feet; Hike-Allen Co., Cort- 

 land. N. Y., two iron-frame houses, 40x 

 200 feet; W'illiam J. Thomas, Barnard, 

 N. Y., iron-frame house, 40x150. H. E. 

 Bates, manager of the Rochester office, 

 has been away on a business trip in 

 western Pennsylvania; on his return he 

 left for his vacation, to be spent in 

 Wayne, Pa., and is now visiting the 

 S. A. F. convention at Boston. 



Arthur Elder recently returned from 

 a business trip on which he visited 

 Utica, Binghamton and Syracuse.
