The Weekly Florists^ Review^ 



March 30, IdU. 



THE USERS OF THE 



Hughson Regulating Valve 



are all satisfied with the results it has given, 

 and many duplicate orders is the proof. 



This Valve Will Maintain a Steady Pressure 



on the low side, no matter how the initial pressure fluctuates. 

 By carrying 40 or 50 pounds pressure on the boiler and setting 

 the valve to carry 5 or 

 10 pounds on the line, 

 you always have a re- 

 serve to fall back on 



m case 

 drop in 



of a sudden 

 temperature. 



OUR NEW CATALOGUE IS JUST OUT 



and if you contemplate making any changes you 

 had better get one — it is yours for the asking. 



We Also Make Traps and Other Devices.

who had charge of a fund made up by 

 the local retailers and wholesalers to 

 present W. C. Smith with a suitable 

 wedding present, selected a handsome 

 punch bowl of solid silver and on Friday 

 night, March 24, presented the happy 

 couple with it, R. J. Windier making 

 the presentation speech. Both Mr. and 

 Mrs. Smith were taken by surprise. 



The west end florists say that trade 

 has been somewhat quiet since Lent be- 

 gan, with a lack of social work, but 

 other work has been good, especially for 

 funerals. Blooming plants are selling 

 well and they are making a great show 

 with them. 



C. A. Kuehn was busy last week ship- 

 ping supply orders. W. C. Smith Whole- 

 sale Floral Co.. H. G. Beining and G. H. 

 Angermueller also say that last week 

 was fairly good in all departments. 



Frank Fillmore and Carl Beyer, south 

 St. Louis florists, paid a visit to their 

 old friend John Steidle, at Olivette, last 

 week. After inspecting Mr. Steidle 's 

 well kept place, they visited the plants 

 of A. Jablonsky and C. E. De Wever, 

 close by, and in this way spent a most 

 pleasant afternoon. 



The florists along Grand avenue, 

 Messrs. Bentzen, Waldbart, Ayers, Eg- 

 geling, Bergstermann and Beyer have 

 their show houses filled with extra fine 

 blooming plants. R. J. Windier and 

 the Metropolitan Floral Co. have no 

 show houses, but they make elegant 

 window displays of these plants. They 

 all report a good trade. 



S. Seligman, representing Wertheimer 

 Bros., New York city, was a recent 

 visitor. J. J. B.
