The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



OCTODEK 21, 1901 



HILLSBORO, OHIO. 



There is not much going on in the 

 flower business. Every now and then we 

 get a little order, sufficient to remind 

 us that we are still in the business. At 

 this date, October 11, the outdoor flow- 

 ers are in fine shape and there is no 

 sign of frost. Everybody gets flowers 

 from his own garden, and the poor coun- 

 try florist is wishing that Jack Frost 

 would come. 



Simon J. Hider cut his first mums 

 October 9, and he thought that in a 

 week or ten days from that time he 

 would have mums for everyone that 

 wanted them. His stock, both of mums 

 and carnations, is of fine quality. 



The Hillsboro and Highland County 

 Exposition was held October 5 to 7, and 

 it is certain that the people of this 

 vicinity have never seen a finer display 

 of everything in the florists' line. The 

 weather was as favorable as anyone 

 could wish. Simon J. Hider was the 

 winner of the society's silver medal for 

 the best display of flowers, ferns and 

 palms; His exhibit contained twenty- 

 three varieties of ferns, ranging in size 

 from 2-inch to 10-inch, and also seventy- 

 five to eighty different kinds of plants. 

 His exhibit, he says, might have looked 

 insignificant to some of the brother 

 florists in the large cities, but as the 

 effort of a florist out in the hills, in a 

 town of only 4,000 or 5,000 people, it 

 should be considered as evidence that 

 the florist is strictly up-to-date. S. 



WINONA, MINN. 



E. Kirchner & Son, of the West End 

 Greenhouses, have in the last year or 

 two enlarged the houses until they now 

 cover 15,000 square feet. At present 

 they are building a retarding house of 

 reinforced concrete and steel, with a 

 foundation and floor several feet below 

 the level of the ground. 



The greenhouses of Fuhlbruegge Bros., 

 at Fifth and Kansas streets, have been 

 placed in good condition for winter and 

 the outlook there is good. 



Some improvements have also been 

 made at the greenhouses of Mrs. Sie- 

 brecht, in the east end. 



G. A. Foss, at the Woodlawn Green- 

 houses, has not found it necessary to 

 make much change in his houses this 

 summer, as his range was largely rebuilt 

 a year ago. 



Olney, III. — The "Wilson Florists' Co. 

 has sold out and John A. Wilson has re- 

 moved to Salem, Ore. 



Bryan, O. — Eli Wonsetler is rebuild- 

 ing the south section of his greenhouses 

 and is extending the width eight feet to 

 the south.
