The Weekly Florists' Review. 



57 



LouisviUiE, ir. 



When Richard Vincent, Jr., president- 

 elect of the Society of American Flo- 

 rists, was in Louisville November 15 

 on his swing around the circle, the 

 Society of Kentucky Florists arranged 

 for the delivery of his stereopticon lec- 

 ture, "The Bulb Fields of Holland," 

 at the Zion Reformed church, where 

 the public was admitted without charge. 



After the lecture the florists gave a 

 supper for their guest, at the Louis- 

 ville hotel. August R. Baumer, chair- 

 man of the committee of arrangements, 

 acted as toastmaster and many felicita- 

 tions were exchanged. 



BROCKTON, MASS. 



There are now four flower stores on 

 the main street here. In addition to 

 W. W. Hathaway, who is near the 

 Times office, there are Reed, Jahn and 

 Andrews. The latter is located near the 

 corner of Crescent street. All seem to 

 be doing well. 



W. W. Hathaway has had good fall 

 business. He carries a flne line of pot 

 plants, also flowers of every kind. His 

 carnations from Littlefield & Wyman, 

 North Abington, and mums from Lively 

 & Bond, of Holbrook, are noteworthy. 

 Rose Lady Hillingdon proves a good 

 seller.
