July 13, 1911. 



on which day his engagement with W. 

 Elliott & Sons began. He left the same 

 ♦evening for a canvass of points up the 

 Hudson and as far west as Buffalo. 



Kessler Bros, are busy with green- 

 house building and nursery work at 

 8ecaucu8, and say their new fern is 

 meeting with a large demand for fall 

 delivery. 



M. Kakuda, of the Yokohama Nur- 

 sery Co., left July 8 for a tr^p to Ber- 

 muda. 



Among the wholesalers at the Greek 

 outing last week were Messrs. Walter 

 Hheridan, M. C. Ford, J. K. Allen, 

 Charles Millang, P. J. Smith, H. E.

Geo. V. Nash, of the Bronx park con- 

 servatories, with Mrs. Nash, left last 

 week for a two months' trip to the 

 coast, including in their travels Port- 

 land and the Yosemite. 



John B. Nugent, president of the New 

 York Florists ' Club, was married at 

 Baltimore, on Friday, July 7. His bride 

 was Miss Sabery Dorsell, prima donna

 purity. Mr. Nugent received hearty

The New York and New Jersey Plant 

 Growers' Association gave a dinner for 

 eighteen gentlemen at Brighton Beach, 

 July 5, the trip from New York to 

 Coney Island being made by sight-see- 

 ing auto. 



Bowling. 



Many bowlers of the New York club 



are away from the city. The intense 



heat of the last week kept some at 



home. The scores of the faithful were:

The Market. 



It is quite evident on every hand 

 that business has sunk into the same 

 old rut that it psually does during the 

 hot summer months. The supply and 

 varieties of stock are gradually dimin- 

 ishing every day, so that it would be 

 an impossibility to take care of a big 

 demand. Funeral orders seem to be 

 the only thing to keep up trade, with 

 an occasional wedding. On the out- 

 side markets are seen chiefly daisies, 

 while sweet peas were a complete fail- 

 ure this year, owing to the continued 

 spell of hot, dry weather. In fact, all 

 outdoor vegetation has been put to 

 the bad. Rain is needed and needed 

 badly. The last good rain that fell 

 in this section was early in May; since 

 then only a , few minor showers have 

 visited us, they being too small to be 

 of much value. Naturally, under these 

 conditions one can hardly expect much 

 of stock planted out. 



The prospects for asters are no more, 

 as they, like the rest of the outdoor 

 stock, are a failure. Lilies seem ^o be 

 the queen of the indoor stock and are 

 of good quality. The rose and carna- 

 tion crops are scant and of poor qual-

Various Notes. 

 The business year of the Miami Flo- 



ral Co. ended July 1. It is not necee- 

 sary to say that thay have been quite 

 busy taking their inventory and gath- 

 ering in old accounts. The last year 

 has proved a satisfactory one for than.
