L. B. BRAGUE & SON, 



'Since 1867! 



HINSDALE, MASS. 



Mention The Review when vou vrttd 



burning question of the good old days, 

 was, "Is it Practicable to Dispose of 

 Flowers Through a Commission House?" 

 Perhaps this question, gravely asked 

 and as gravel}' answered, will show 

 quite as clearly as any other the prog- 

 ress that has been made during the last 

 two decades. 



Certainly Secretary Bust deserved the 

 hearty plaudits showered upon him at 

 the conclusion of his -address. 



Various Notes. 



W. E. McKissielp,. of Washington, D. 

 C, spent a couple of days in this city 

 looking over 1^116 market immediately 

 after Christmas.' 



Charles E. .Meehan says that the Pen- 

 nock-Meehaii Co. will push Budlong's 

 Double White Killdruey and Totty's 

 Sunburst, believing them both worthy 

 of places among roses" grown for cut 

 flowers. 



Edward Eeid had the pleasure of re- 

 ceiving congratulatory telegrams sent 

 on the arrival of his Christmas flowers 

 at far distant Doints. . , 



Princeton proved a popular rose this 

 reason and Berger Bros, were gratified 

 by its reception among flower lovers. 



The next Michel! lecture- will be on 

 poultry, January 4, at 3 p. m., delivered 

 by an eminent poultry expert whose 

 name I wrote and unhappily caniiot de- 

 cipher. Then, the hall will be enlarged 

 and improved. The poultry show fol- 

 lows a week later, .when 400 coops will 

 be filled. 



- Arthur A. Niessen says the Christmds 

 business was handled quietly and satis- 

 factorily, although it was muchjyafger 

 than in the past. The increased facili- 

 ties helped. Daffodils are the latest ar- 

 rival at his company's store. 



George Auegle says that the PhUa- 

 aelphia Cut Flower Co. had, a, satisfac- 

 tory Christmas, the supply being mainly 

 of the better grades oi flowers. 



Frank J. Farney arrived from Chi- 

 cago last week; he stopped writing 

 friendly good wishes long enough to 

 give a cheery greeting. 



Narcissus Grande Soleil d 'Or, from 

 Walter P. Stokes, of the Floracroft 

 Greenhouses, Moorestown, N, J., made 

 its > appearance just before Christmas. 

 Commercially speaking, it is a golden 

 Paper White and very pretty. Perhaps 

 the phrai;e seems an Irish bull, but it 

 is descriptive^, "* , ! •, 



M. Rice & Co. have leased a three- 

 jptory byilding, 120 Camae street, di- 

 t-ectly iii the rear of theif'own building. 

 The two buildings will be connected by 

 bridges and alterations will be pj^essed 

 to completion to give quickly the room 

 needed for expansion. _:*._, _,
