The Weekly Rorists' Review. 



OCTOBER 11, 190* 



INDIANAPOLIS, IND. 



The hot -weather we have been hav- 

 ing the past week has kept the open- 

 ing of fall trade back. What we need 

 is a visit from Jack Frost, for so long 

 as there are any outdoor flowers the 

 people won't buy. 



Carnations are not so good as tney 

 were last year, as they suffered from 

 the excessive heat right after plant- 

 ing. 'Mums are coming in. Fitzwy- 

 gram. white and yellow, are here. 

 with Glory of Pacific and Bergmann 

 showing color. There will be a great 

 crop of 'mums here this season. 



Sociely Meeting. 



The State Florists' Association met 

 at Anthony Wiegand's store Oct. 2. 

 Mr. Wiegand has enlarged his room 

 and now has a thoroughly up-to-date 

 store, so he invited the society up to 

 initiate the place. Vice-President 

 Langstaff presided. Among the var- 

 ious committees to report was the 

 carnival committee, who had charge 

 of getting up a float for the carnival 

 parade, but as there was so little in- 

 terest taken in the matter it was de- 

 cided to drop it. The show committee 

 reported that they had prepared a 

 premium list for the local chrysan- 

 themum show, to be given Nov. 14. 



After the meeting we were treated 

 to a pleasant surprise by Mr. Weigand 

 & Sons in the way of a fine lunch and 

 refreshments of all kinds. There were 

 various amusements, including music, 

 dancing, singing, speechmaking and 

 several boxing exhibits that were 

 very humorous. All voted that It 

 was the best meeting for many a day 

 and one that will not soon be forgot- 

 ten. 



As the date for our next meeting 

 falls on election day, the meeting will 

 be held a week previous. Cards will 

 be_ sent out by the secretary. 



It Is with pleasure that we announce 

 that our old friend, Mr, Wm, Berter- 

 mann, has returned from his Euro- 

 pean trip and will soon be with us 

 again. 



Mr. Wm. Huber, of Huber & Stilz, 

 and Miss Elizabeth Pickering were 

 married Oct. 3. 



Our city is getting ready for its 

 first carnival and the florists are 

 looking forward to a revival in trade 

 in consequence. There is to be a 

 floral parade, but only paper flowers, 

 which are being made by the thou- 

 sands, will be used. 



A certain florist who visits the 

 State House immediately after the 

 death of a state official, or the rela- 

 tive of one, has become so well known 

 that he is referred to as the "ambu- 

 lance florist." He meets with a cool 

 reception, but despite the apparent 

 disapproval the florist persists in his 

 calls, and often secures an order.
