The Florists' Review 



August 27, 1014. 



SAGINAW, MICH. 



The Market. 



Trade in all lines continues normal 

 for ^ummcr. Outdoor flowers are about 

 ruined as a result of the heavy rains 

 last week. Asters, the main crop, are 

 not expected to do much more this sea- 

 son. Gladioli are the finest we have 

 had in years, due to the soakings they 

 have had from time to time. All are 

 busy housing carnations, which are a 

 picture of health in this vicinity. 



Various Notes. 



The next monthly meeting, August 31, 

 of the Saginaw Bay City Floricultural 

 Society will be with C. A. Hawley, at 

 Vassar, Mich. A large attendance is 

 expected. 



The Wm. Roethke Floral Co. has all 

 its cement benches finished and is biisy 

 planting roses. 



Grohman the Florist will soon be cut- 

 ting some nice carnations that were 

 benched from pots in June. 



The Stevens Gladioli Co. has had 

 good results Mith outdoor sweet peas. 

 This concern has no gladioli to speak 

 of; the fire of last March took all the 

 bulbs, and what were bought do not 

 compare with the millions the company 

 had in store. 



Zorn & Gaertner's asters are about 

 all ruined by the heavy rains of last 

 week, some 80,000 plants in all. 



Chas. Frueh & Sons have had an un- 

 usually large amount of funeral work 

 this summer. 



Desner & Fisher's houses are all 

 filled; repairing and painting have full 

 sway now. 



J. B. Goetz Sons are about through 

 planting their 35,000 carnations. After 

 that their attention will be taken up 

 with the winter's coal supply. Their 

 rose cut is growing daily, but the sup- 

 ply is not equal to the demand. 



John Marsh, of Bay City, lost over 

 3,000 lights by hail on the night of 

 August 18. Gee. 



Orange, N. J. — A patent has been 

 issued to A. Eichhorn, 81 Essex avenue, 

 for an invention which, "with a view 

 to preventing the breaking or cracking 

 of glass panes under the expansion and 

 contraction of the metal framework of 

 a greenhouse, provides for so arrang- 

 ing the pane-carrying bars with respect 

 to the metal framework that the bars 

 are approximately wholly out of con- 

 tact with the latter, but firmly secured 

 thereto. The isolation of the wood 

 from the metal is advantageous, for 

 the life of the wood is greatly pro- 

 longed. ' '
