The Florists' Review 



Januaby 30, 1913.

MR. FLORIST: 



How about Natural Preparad Palma, Sa^os, 



ikrecaSy etc., for decorative purposes at weddings, 

 ■^^-■"~ ' chureh, affairs, balls, receptions, entertainments? 



You can get good returns on your investment, as my line of these goods is exceptionally 

 low-priced, quality and durability considered. You save yourself the trouble connected 

 with the handling and maintaining of the natural ones and can give more time to your' 



general business. CHave you ever tried the sale of Funeral 

 Designs composed of waxed paper flowers and leaves, which are 

 so low-priced as to insure a handsome profit in handling them ; 

 or the Metal Wreaths and Designs, which are more in demand 

 than ever before with the country trade? They are absolutely 

 true to nature in makeup and absolutely durable. 



€L I have iu«t completed my Bpecial Oeneral Oatalogrue, devoted exclusively 

 to this line, and will be pleased to send you copy. Ask for No. D. F.

Sydney B. Wertheimer, of Wertheimer 

 Bros., who has just returned from Ber- 

 muda, says he found the islands most 

 interesting. Although it is rather early 

 for the Easter lily crop, he noticed sev- 

 eral fields in bloom. The oleanders are 

 just beginning to bloom And these beau- 

 tiful flowers, with their aweet odor, are 

 about the most attractive feature in the 

 Bermudas. Practically ,^g^rery road is 

 lined with a solid mass of bushes, giving 

 the effect of a continuous garden. Mr. 

 Wertheimer agreed with S. A. Anderson, 

 a well known florist of Buffalo, who was 

 also visiting Bermuda, with his family, 

 at the same time, that the transforma- 

 tion from the wintry blasts of New 

 York to the summery climate of Ber- 

 muda, considering the comparatively 

 short distance, was most remarkable and 

 pleasurable. 



Mrs, Mary Kimball, wife of Willard 

 C. Kimball, died last week at her home, 

 215 Audubon avenue, from heart dis- 

 ease. Besides her husband, she is sur- 

 vived by two sons and two daughters. 



New Orleans, La. — Hfpry Papworth, 

 president of the Metaine Ridge Nursery 

 Co., recently secured the contract for

 grounds of the state capitol.
