. Florists' review [microform]. Floriculture. 86 NASHVILLE, TENN. Various Notes. Building and repairing seem to be the order of the day while business is dull in the summer. The fall promises to find the houses in this vicinity in the best condition as a whole that they have ever been in. Mclntyre Bros, have recently incor- porated their business and are planning several new houses. They will later dismantle the old place, having pur- chased several acres of land adjacent to the new plant. The new houses are to be larger than any they have hith- erto built. Joe Brown had planned the rebuild- ing of his entire plant, replacing the old houses with new Moninger houses of larger size. Work was already in progress when his physician ordered him to Colorado for his health. As a result, no new houses will be erected at present, but the old houses are being well repaired. Mr. Brown leaves for the west this week. He has the sym- pathy of the fraternity and all wish him good luck and a rapid recovery. Tom Joy, Jr., with his family and a number of friends, has been out on Caney Fork fishing for the last three weeks. He needed the rest badly, but look out for the fish stories when he returns. The new rose, Fireflame, has produced a few blooms at the Joy place. It has a beautiful bud and is certainly of a striking color, though it remains to be seen whether a single rose will be popular here. Mr. Geny says that there is nothing rushing at present, though business is fair for July. They have a good cut of nearly all seasonable flowers, though the quality is not of the best. McKay, Reece & Co. say that it is al- most impossible to secure cow peas for the late trade. The good rains of the last week have put the ground in fine condition and there would be a large acreage sown if the seed could be had. Should the present cool weather con- tinue, with plenty of rain, they expect quite a revival of business. Haury & Sons are planning some new houses, to be erected this summer.
