The Florists^ Review 



Apbil 6, 1916. 



TEI-OITIES. 



The Iilarket. 



Market conditions last week were 

 about normal, with no particular rush 

 except when funeral work created a 

 special demand. A good supply of stock 

 is to be had. Roses are abundant, as 

 are carnations and all bulbous stock. 

 Violets are not so good, owing to the 

 warm weather. Sweet peas are plenti- 

 ful, but, as a rule, are rather short- 

 stemmed. Easter lilies are plentiful 

 and of good quality. Some calls are 

 coming in for pansies and other hardy 

 plants, and the next week will show a 

 good demand for this line of stock, 

 if weather conditions remain favorable. 



Various Notes. 



An eflfort is being made to have the 

 florists close on Sundays and make no 

 deliveries. The movement meets with 

 much favorable comment, but whether 

 it will work out or not remains to be 

 seen. The question will probably be 

 brought up before the Tri-City Florists ' 

 Club at its next meeting. 



Ludwig Stapp is making a business 

 trip to Chicago, to be gone for a few 

 days. 



William Knees, of Moline, has his 

 outdoor sweet peas planted. He reports 

 trade conditions good, with considerable 

 funeral work and stock cleaning up 

 well. 



Henry Gaethje, of Rock Island, has a 

 fine lot of antirrhinums in crop, but 

 the demand is not up to what the qual- 

 ity of the blooms would warrant. 

 Otherwise trade is good. 



Miss Rose Waltman, of Davenport, 

 finds trade rather spasmodic. Some 

 days she is rushed with funeral work; 

 at other times business is somewhat 

 slow, but it averages well. 



Mr. Forber, of Forber & Bird, Daven- 

 port, says trade is fair, with no particu- 

 lar rush in any line. W, G. 



Midland, Mich.— "When the people of 

 Midland want to boost their town, they 

 provide the newspapers with a supple- 

 mentary sheet featuring the principal 

 industries and prominent citizens of 

 the place. W. E. Thayer and his range 

 of 10,000 feet recently came in for a 

 considerable bit of this welcome pub- 

 licity.
