The Florists^ Review 



Jdnx 22, 1916. 



MILWAUSEE. 



Tlie Market. 



The weather was exceptionally wet 

 last week. The downfall of rain was 

 continuous, retarding outdoor work en- 

 tirely and enforcing idleness when there 

 was plenty of work to do. The weather 

 did not affect the supply of stock to 

 any appreciable extent, and the cut of 

 both roses and carnations was more 

 than equal to the demand. Carnations 

 are exceptionally fine at this time and 

 the prices are somewhat low. The sup- 

 ply is not great enough to cause either 

 bargain sales or a glut of stock. Eoses 

 are of unusually good quality and are 

 having a good sale. Shorter stock, of 

 course, is in the greatest demand, but 

 long, fancy stock is moving well. 



Sweet peas are deteriorating. This is 

 especially noticeable in the length of 

 stem, which is shortening and hindering 

 sales to a great extent. Valley is scarce 

 and the quality is only medium. It is 

 hard to supply the demand with first- 

 class stock and, considering the June 

 weddings, this works quite a hardship. 



Greens are becoming more plentiful 

 and are in fine shape. Adiantum is ex- 

 ceptionally!?' fine and in great demand. 

 Business in general has been good and 

 the late spring has helped the sale of 

 stock tremendously. Quite a few or- 

 chids are being used and some fine 

 stock is to be had every day. 



Various Notes. 



Graduation exercises at the Milwau- 

 kee Downer College brought several 

 days of strenuous work to the florists. 

 A large number of flowers were used 

 and corsages were purchased by the 

 score. 



Eobert Baerman, who was injured in 

 an automobile accident June 10 while 

 returning from a dance, is reported to 

 have fully recovered. 



June 6 saw another visit of the stork 

 to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Kichard 

 Lietz. This is the fifth time the stork 

 has appeared. This time it was a bounc- 

 ing baby boy. 



The annual picnic given by the Hel- 

 ton & Hunkel Co. for its employees will 

 take place at Ehlert's grove. Brown 

 Deer, Wis., Sunday, June 25.
