The Weekly Florists' Review^ 



October 26, 1911. 



the bill for use in design work since the 

 asters have disappeared. 



Boses continue about th« same this 

 week and there is an abundant supply. 

 Beauties have not been especially good 

 this week; the heads are small and 

 crippled and the blooms lack color. 

 Violets are selling well now, as also 

 are cattleyas, which are of excellent 

 quality. Gardenias are better than 

 ever this fall, but there is little demand 

 for them except for weddings. Valley 

 has improved considerably and keeps 

 moving. Blooming plants are scarce 

 again, but ferns and palms are going at 

 a lively pace. Galax, both bronze and 

 green, is quite scarce. Business in 

 general is good, but weddings and fu- 

 nerals go to make up a large percentage 

 of the trade. 



Various Notes. 



Street venders are selling Boston 

 ferns at half price, 



E. C. Campbell has a clever display 

 of yellow and white mums and mar- 

 guerites in his window. 



Mr. and Mrs. George O. Havill spent 

 a few days at Sodus and Sodus Point 

 last week. Mrs. Havill also had a 

 birthday celebration October 19. 



J. Cohen, of Wertheimer Bros., New 

 York city, called on the trade last week 



The local florists are awaking to the 

 fact that a good window display helps 

 business materially, and the last few 

 months the downtown florists have been 

 vying with each other to produce the 

 handsomest displays. Among the fore- 

 .'most pushers or hustlers are: George 

 Boucher, J. B. Keller Sons, E. C. Canip- 

 bell, Salter Bros, and the Rochester 

 Floral Co. 



Miss Florence Gibson, of H. E. Wil- 

 gon 's force, spent a day at Honeoye 

 Falls recently. 



The regular monthJy meeting of the 

 Florists' Club was held October 9, but 

 no important business was transacted. 



Some good gardenias were recently 

 received from the S. 8. Pennock-Meehan 

 Co., Philadelphia, by J. B. Keller Sons. 



Charles Suhr is cutting first-class 

 Golden Glow mums and they are selling 

 well. 



J. B. Keller Sons had a busy week 

 with weddings, one large reception and 

 ball, and various funerals. They have 

 a unique Hallowe 'en window display 

 this week. 



Oliver Boucher has just returned from 

 a trip to Albany, Troy and New York 

 city. He took in one of the games for 

 the world's championship while in the 

 metropolis. E. C. A. 



Alton, HI. — George Madsen, of the 

 Alton Floral Co., has received two 

 cars of coal and one car of slack, for 

 use at his greenhouses.
