•'.'-':■.- 2i_ The Weekly Florists^ Review* July 18, 1007, complete the work of planting 4,500 American Beauties this week. The stock is in fine condition. Charles W. Jennings is ill with ty- phoid fever in the Jewish hospital. A. Farenwald, of Roslyn, has planted his rebuilt range with American Beau- ties and Killarney. His older range is devoted to 10,000 Richmond, some thou- sands of Liberty and a few experiments. Herbert G. Tull, of the Henry A. Dreer Co., has chartered the steamer Columbia for the excursion of the S. A. F„ August 21. The Columbia holds 3,000 people, which will make it abso- lutely safe. Should the delegation reach 1,500, or even 2,000, even the most timid need not feel that the boat is over- crowded. Bowline. The games to decide the places on the team to represent this city at the con- vention next month have been begun. The first series of three were rolled on the club alleys in Horticultural hall, the second in the Terminal alleys. Thir- teenth and Filbert streets. Following are the scores: HOME ALLEYS.

Joseph G. Neidinger has removed from 1438 North Tenth street to 1513 and 1515 Germantown avenue, his business having increased to such an extent that he was obliged to procure larger quarters. The building is a thoroughly modern one and he has a space of 2,500 square feet for the manufacture and drying of wheat sheaves and the facilities for the wax design work are such as will permit an- other considerable expansion in the busi- ness. THE MICHELL TROPHY. The accompanying illustration shows the novel trophy selected by the H. F. Michell Co. to be contested for annual- ly by the bowling clubs at the conven- tion of the Society of American Flo- rists, and to become the property of the club winning it three times. It will be offered first for the tournament at Phil- adelphia during the convention to be held there August 20 to 23. The trophy is a plaque of Flemish oak, fourteen inches long and twelve and one-half inches wide, on which is applied a hand-wrought copper shield. This, in turn, is embellished with a solid silver shield, on which is etched a series of bowling alleys and a bowler about to roll a ball. The details of the etch- ing are particularly interesting. The perspective is perfect, while even such small details as the score board, sponge and cup, sand box and hand cloth are not omitted. In each corner of the
