The Florists^ Review 



February 13, 1913. 



SPBINOFIELD. MASS. 



The Market. 



Cold, winter weather has held on 

 steadily for the last week, improving 

 the quality of stock to a marked de- 

 gree. There has been plenty of sun- 

 shine, so that carnations, roses, bulbous 

 stock and violets all show the effects of 

 seasonable weather. Killarney, Ward, 

 Taft and Richmond roses are all plen- 

 tiful. Sweet peas and freesias are com- 

 ing on the market in large quantities 

 and are selling at a good price. Orchids 

 have been in great demand for the last 

 few weeks. Lily of the valley is in ex- 

 cellent condition and finds ready sale. 

 Golden Spurs are arriving in larger 

 quantities and are good. Fancy baskets 

 of cut flowers are having a run just 

 now and all sorts of combinations are 

 being used. Everybody is looking for- 

 ward to a big Valentine's day trade, 

 for much publicity is being given to 

 special ' valentine flowers. 



Various Notes. 



Meacham & Hassell had an attractive 

 Valentine 's window, with posters, fancy 

 boxes, etc. 



John M. Morse is again with Mark 

 Aitken, on Main street. 



Wm. Schlatter & Son are producing 

 excellent daffodils, which find a ready 

 sale. 



N. H. Higgins has been unusually 

 busy with funeral work the last two 

 weeks. 



Mark Aitken had an attractive deco- 

 ration at the Hotel Worthy, February 

 7, for which baskets of spring flowers 

 were used. 



J. Alden Davis, of Forest park, has 

 a plant that produced a bunch of about 

 fifteen dozen bananas this year. Mr. 

 Davis has been experimenting for some 

 time with tropical fruits and has several 

 citrus fruit trees in the greenhouse in 

 the park. He expects that in the near 

 future he will be able to show lemons, 

 oranges, grape fruit, etc. 



The Xesson-Atherton wedding, Feb- 

 ruary S. was a big affair. Mark Aitken 

 did the decorating. 



Visitors: W. E. Cooke, with Stumpp 

 & Waltor Co., New York; S. Greene, 

 with Rnvorsdorfer & Co., Phila'delphia. 



E. C. A. 



Ottawa, 111.— The boiler shed at the 

 greenhouses of Charles Cole, north of 

 town, was destroyed by fire February 1, 

 the loss being $500. The fire was started 

 by the explosion of a lamp.
