The Florists' Review

DENVER. 



The Market. 



There has been no improvement in 

 the flower business during the last 

 week. The market continues dull. No 

 carnations have been seen in this mar- 

 ket for about two weeks and it will 

 probably be several weeks yet before 

 the new carnations will be in bloom. 

 Roses are short-stemmed and are being 

 sold at low prices. Asters are some- 

 what scarce, as some of the growers 

 lost nearly all of their plants by blight. 

 Dahlias keep coming in and are of 

 good quality. Sweet peas are poor. 

 Gladioli are first-class and are still ar- 

 riving in large quantities. 



Various Notes. 



Thomas Batten, of the City park 

 greenhouses, is fishing in the trout 

 streams near Steamboat Springs. 



E. S. Kennedy, of the Alpha Floral 

 Co., and Mrs. Kennedy have returned 

 from a week 's visit with relatives in 

 Detroit. 



Ralph Hill, of the Elitch-Long Green- 

 houses, is spending a week's vacation 

 camping in the mountains near Idaho 

 Springs. 



Herbert Claussen, of the Broadway 

 store of the Park Floral Co., has re- 

 turned from a delightful vacation spent 

 along the Moflfat road. 



Someone has been stealing geraniums 

 from the flower beds at City park. It 

 is to be hoped that the guilty person 

 will soon be caught. 



Miss Lena Webb and Miss Lenora 

 Williams, of the Park Floral Co., have 

 returned from their vacations. E. S. 



NEWPORT, R. I. 



It now seems an assured fact that 

 the midsummer flower show, held 

 jointly by the Newport Garden Club 

 and the Newport Horticultural Society 

 this year for the first time, is to be a 

 permanent fixture of the Newport sea- 

 son. So pleased was the committee in 

 charge of this summer's show that it 

 was decided to repeat the show next 

 summer about the middle of August, 

 and an effort will be made to hold it 

 at a place nearer the reach of the gen- 

 eral public. 



The sixteenth annual ball of the 

 Newport Horticultural Society will be 

 held at the Newport beach, Septem- 

 ber 8. 



W. D. Boss, president of the Worces- 

 ter Agricultural Society; C. W. Breed, 

 president of the Worcester County 

 Horticultural Society, and Secretary L. 

 C. Midgley, of the latter, were recent 

 visitors in this city. W. H. M.
