* RAMBLING JOTTINGS. 



F. X. Dienst, of Middletown, N. Y., 

 reports good business and Ls preparing 

 for a banner season. 



E. A. Lorentz, of Middletown, was out 

 gunning for bear. Meanwhile business 

 was being well taken care of by his side 

 partner. 



J. K. Lamereaux, of Port Jervis, N. 

 Y., has a rush of funeral work and is a 

 born artist in that line. 



E. B. Holtslander, of Liberty, N. Y., 

 left this busy sphere, passing into the 

 great beyond recently, after a long siege 

 of illness. He was the friend of all who 

 knew him and had built up a nice busi- 

 ness, which is being taken care of by his 

 widow, who shared for many years the 

 labors connected therewith. She has the 

 best wishes of the Keview for continued 

 success.. 



Josephine is the choice of A. H. Woep- 



pel, of Corning, N. Y., for the best early 

 mum, being a bright, early yellow. It 

 can also be grown for Christmas, by late 

 propagation. It is a capital variety for 

 bench or pots and a good sort for the 

 small grower. Carnations are very prom- 

 ising here and Eichmond roses never 

 looked better. It will take a good one 

 to beat this sterling rose. 



W. A. Wettlin, of Hornell, N. Y., had 

 no idea so many primulas and cinerarias 

 were sold until he advertised his stock in 

 the Review and received a batch of or- 

 ders that will take many of the well 

 grown plants. 



The illness of Mrs. W. H. Wright, of 

 Sidney, N. J., has compelled her tp re- 

 linquish the business. 



i\Irs. B. Ackley, of Oneonta, N, Y., is 

 reported seriously ill. She is a pioneer 

 florist and has built up a good business, 

 now being taken care of by Mr. Ackley. 

 It is hoped she may soon be well again. 



E. F. Quinn, of Norwich, N. Y., finds 

 the cement refrigerator recently built a 

 fine investment, a money saver. Stock 

 keeps well without ice. 



C. H. Wilbur, of Binghamton, N. Y., 

 is the first fellow craftsman to own an 

 auto in that city, and finds it quite 

 an ad. M.
