The Weekly Florists' Review. 



AuousT 17, 1911. 



BOSTON NOTES. 



[Concluded from page 43.] 



been secured. Mr. Cohen has been a 

 flower salesman for twenty-two years 

 and has the respect of everyone who 

 knows him. 



B. J. McGinty, for William E. Morris, 

 of Wellesley Hills, is handling some ex- 

 cellent Killarney, White Killarney and 

 Richmond roses. Mr. Morris has this 

 season added a large new house for 

 roses, which he grows well. 



At Galvin's Tremont street store, Au- 

 gust 12, one window contained an at- 

 tractively arranged tank of aquatics, 

 with large vases of splendid gladioli 

 interspersed and with foliage plants as 

 a background. Another window was de- 

 voted to palms, ferns and miscellaneous 

 foliage plants. 



William H. Carr, at the Boston 

 Flower Exchange, is handling asters in 

 quantity from W. F. Eaton, of Haver- 

 hilj, also good Asparagus Sprengeri. Mr. 

 Carr has just returned from a pleasant 

 trip to Montreal, where he thinks New 

 England growers would find an excel- 

 lent market for much of their produce. 



Henry M. Eobinson is enjoying a 

 hard earned vacation in Canada. No 

 members of the fitm were able to 

 attend the S. A. F. convention. 



Crotons and gladioli made a good 

 window feature at Julius H. Zinn's, on 

 Park street, last week. 



William Sim has thrown the tomatoes 

 out of several of his large houses, pre- 

 paratory to filling with sweet peas and 

 violets. His large acreage of sweet 

 corn brought excellent prices and is 

 being followed by a crop of string 

 beans. 



J. J. Casey, of the Eosary, on Claren- 

 don street, will relocate on Boylston 

 street this fall, in an up-to-d'ate store. 



At all the seed stores early bulbs 

 have been received in quantity. The 

 high price of timothy and other grass 

 seeds is considerably unsettling business 

 for fall seeding. Vacations have been 

 enjoyed by the various staffs and nearly 

 all are now back, ready for the fall 

 campaign. 



John J. Fee, of Jamaica Plain, is now 

 one of the heaviest shippers of Lilium 

 longiflorum. Mann Bros., of Eandolph, 

 also have these, as well as auratnms 

 and speciosums, in quantity. 



The J. A. Budlong & Sons Co., of Au- 

 buril, E. I., have large daily shipments 

 of Killarney, White Killarney, Eich- 

 mond and My Maryland roses at the 

 Boston Flower Exchange. The quality, 

 for August, is good. This firm has a 

 fine double white sport of Killarney, 

 which will be heard from later. 



M. L. Tirrell, of Eandolph, is one of 

 the few growers who are able to pick 

 fine sweet peas with excellent stems 

 still. 



William E. Nicholson reports cut- 

 worms as working some damage among 

 chrysanthemums under glass and, from 

 the unusual number in the soil still, ex- 

 pects some trouble from them this 

 winter. 



Peter M. Miller spent a few days in 

 Lenox last week. This week he is en- 

 joying the ocean breezes at Bar Harbor, 

 Me. W. N. Craig. 



Titusville, Pa. — Lee J. Eowe has 

 leased a building on West Spring street 

 and will open a downtown store there 

 about September 1, to be operated in 

 connection with his greenhouses in the 

 east end of town. He will build a 

 greenhouse at the rear of the store. 



Murphysboro, 111. — Claude Wisely has 

 installed an irrigating system in his 

 greenhouses. He has also been putting 

 in new steam pipes and making other 

 improvements.
