The Weekly Florists' Review* 



Apeil 28, 1910. 



ranges could be supported by so small a 

 city as Bochester. After a vote of 

 thanks had been tendered to these gentle- 

 men for their entertainment, the associa- 

 tion adjourned, to meet at Winona, Ind., 

 July 3. 



Among those present were the follow- 

 ing members: W. W. Dederick, presi- 

 dent, Warsaw; Harry White, vice-presi- 

 dent, North Manchester; J. H. Shelton, 

 secretary-treasurer, Kochester; A. J.

 Pastor, Huntington; C. C. Arnold, Jud- 

 Bon; W. S. Kircher, Rochester, and J. A. 

 E. Haugh, Anderson. 



Before adjournment, resolutions of re- 

 gret were offered on account of the death 

 of one of the members, Mrs. J. D. Con- 

 ner, of Wabash. 



The Northern Indiana Association is 

 a growing one and promises to be of 

 much benefit to its membership.

EVANSVILLE. 



The Market. 



Business has been variable for some 

 time. At times there is a big rush, then 

 nothing of much consequence for several 

 days. Cut flowers, especially roses and 

 carnations, are poor, showing the effects 

 of the warm weather in March and the 

 cold weather this month. 



It is seldom that we have snow in 

 April, but we are getting it now. Sun- 

 day morning, April 24, we had about 

 four inches of snow, with a temperature 

 of 33 degrees. Some of the growers 

 have their carnations in the field, which 

 will be more or less set back by the cold 

 weather. Outdoor roses are almost ready 

 to bloom and the buds will probably be 

 injured considerably. 



Julius Niednagel & Sons have their 

 carnations in the field and they have been 

 worrying considerably over the weather 

 conditions, but are hoping that no serious 

 damage will result. Their roses are look- 

 ing well, but are a little off crop. They 

 are cutting some excellent carnations. 

 They have several benches of smilax that 

 are looking fine. Mr. Murphy and Frank 

 Woelz, growers here, have been confined 

 to their homes by sickness for about a 

 week. 



Geo. Blackman was kept home for a 

 few days by sickness. 



Henry Seymour has been cutting a 

 large number of carnations, but there is 

 not much demand for them. 



Nellie Goodge has a fine lot of plants 

 for the spring trade. Her carnations are 

 in good condition. 



J. C. Elspermann has had considerable 

 funeral work of late and has used lots of 

 flowers. 



Eoyston & Feuton are selling off their 

 old rose plants and will soon be ready to 

 plant the young stock. They have only a 

 few My Maryland, but the flowers being 

 cut are fine and away ahead of the 

 Maids. E. L. F. 



Kexnebunk, Me. — Jackson O. Elwell, 

 who has been in business here for the last 

 twelve years, has found it necessary dur- 

 ing that time to build several additions 

 to his greenhouses, but his stock is still 

 too small for the demand. Mr. Elwell 

 was born in Lyman, in York county, and 

 came to Kennebunk more tlian twenty 

 years ago. His chief assistant is W. P. 

 Gaw, an expert florist from Scotland.

''DETROIT'' AUTOMATIC RETURN 

 STEAM TRAPS 



"We have been using two of your 'Detroit' 

 Traps the past winter on a Gravity System 

 and flnd they keep the pipe clear of conden- 

 sation, therefore making the return do as 

 much as the flow. We are able to heat with 

 less number of pipe than formerly and keep 

 the houses far more even in temperature." 



"Detroit" Traps will do the same for you.

The Standard 

 Steam Trap 



Is acknowledged the best for the 

 florist, because it is durable and does 

 its work without trouble and annoy- 

 ance, saving its cost by the economy 

 in coal bills.
