Mention The Review when you write. 



A. F. Barney, of the T. J, Grey Co., 

 is spending his vacation in New Hamp- 

 shire. 



The Massachusetts Moss Greenery 

 Co., at the Boston Cooperative Mar- 

 ket, has added a wire design depart- 

 ment. Bert F. Sloan is their salesman. 



The W. W. Edgar Co. has just fin- 

 ished building new cement pits. They 

 have a grand stock of both pot and 

 field-grown hydrangeas, while they are 

 extra strong on Lorraines, cyclamens, 

 genistas and poinsettias. 



Mann Bros., of Randolph, are now 

 the largest shippers of gladioli and lilies 

 to the Boston Flower Exchange. 



Edgar Bros., of Waverley, have fin- 

 ished a large house of tomatoes and 

 will plant it with winter flowering 

 sweet peas. Their other houses are de- 

 voted to mums, which look well. 



The exhibition of the North Shore 

 Horticultural Society on the grounds of 

 Mrs. E. C. Winthrop, Manchester, Au- 

 gust 21 and 22, will as usual attract 

 many Boston visitors. 



H. M. Bobinson & Co. have moved 

 into their commodious and up-to-date 

 ofiices on the second floor of their 

 building. 



Boston's swell new hotel, the Copley- 

 Plaza, built at a cost of over $4,000,000, 

 opened last week. Galvin supplies all 

 the cut flowers and window boxes for 

 this mammoth hostelry. 



The finest Kaiserins in the city are 

 those handled by A. R. Hutson for W. 

 H. Elliott. They also have extra fine 

 Mrs. Aaron Ward and Christy Miller. 

 The latter proves to be an extra good 

 summer rose. 



Robert W. Grey, of Soledad, Cien- 

 fuegos, Cuba, sailed for home via New 

 York August 17. He looks well and his 

 many friends here were pleased to see 

 him. He is doing a fine work in raising 

 improved sugar canes by hybridization 

 and now has eight acres of splendid 

 varieties, which are a great advance on 

 the older types. 



The business outlook in Boston and 

 throughout New England is excellent. 

 Building statistics for 1912 to date are 

 $20,000,000 ahead of any previous year 

 and all our leading industries are an- 

 ticipating prosperous times. 



Carbone's, on Boylston street, are 

 having a good summer trade. They 

 have done a greatly increased business 

 in sundries, of which they have a good 

 exhibit at the convention this week. 



The Boston Flower Co. is having an 

 excellent call for its artificial shower 

 casket covers and has made up several 

 within the last few days. This com- 

 pany sells a great many roses, putting 

 up twenty-five in a box for 50 cents. 

 The bargain price appeals to many.
