The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



June 9, 1910. 



BOCHESTEB. 



The Market. 



' * What is so rare as a day in June, ' ' 

 1910? Everyone is complaining about 

 the weather, which has been unusually 

 cool. The lack of sunshine, coupled with 

 ■ excessive rainfall, has made conditions ex- 

 tremely trying for the florists of this 

 locality. 



The month of weddings always brings 

 business, and trade during last week was 

 fair. The supply of carnations has been 

 below the average; in fact, it has been 

 almost impossible to furnish any large 

 quantity of blooms. Other flowers are 

 coming in equal to all demands. The 

 trade in bedding plants is a bit glow, 

 owing chiefly to the cool weather and the 

 uncertainty of a frost, a killing freeze 

 having just been reported from the 

 northern part of the state. Eeports are 

 that vegetables and flowering plants have 

 been completely ruined, entailing an enor- 

 mous loss to gardeners and farmers in 

 the northern counties of the state. 



Various Notes. 



The June meeting of the Rochester 

 Florists' Association will be held Mon- 

 day evening, June 13. Every member 

 should be on hand, as important matters 

 concerning the S. A. F. convention will 

 be discussed. The chairmen of the local 

 committees met on Thursday evening, 

 June 2, and made definite plans for the 

 work of each committee; these plans will 

 be presented on Monday evening for the 

 approval of the association. 



The local florists who have missed see- 

 ing the magnificent collection of rhodo- 

 dendrons in Highland park have lost a 

 great opportunity for this year. The 

 many varieties and the wonderful color- 

 ing made a sight worth going a long 

 distance to see. W. C. Barry, vice-presi- 

 dent of the park board, has just returned 

 from a trip to Boston and other eastern 

 cities, and stated that he saw nothing in 

 the east to compare with the display in 

 Highland park. A valuable feature is 

 that each variety is labeled, so that the 

 visitor may know at a glance the par- 

 ticular species and variety. E. F,. R. 



Taunton, Mass.— C. D. Babbitt was 

 badly bruised in one of his legs recently 

 by a kick from his horse. Though no 

 bones were broken, the wound was so 

 severe as to cause serious lameness.
