The Florists^ Review 



Makch 29, 1917. 



LOUISVILLE, KY. 



The Market. 



Wliilc this section of our letter may 

 be growing monotonous to the readers, 

 it is with pleasure we write of the 

 continued good business being done by 

 the Louisville florists. Indeed, the trade 

 seems to be growing from day to day. 

 Last Sunday many of the houses re- 

 mained open all day to handle the 

 heavy volume of business. All classes 

 of floral work are in heavy demand. 



Outside jonquils are appearing and 

 are meeting with ready sales, being 

 used as fast as brought in. Flowers are 

 moving steadily. The ever increasing 

 supply of roses and carnations is being 

 met with a like demand. Blooming 

 plants are arriving in numbers now and 

 are making a brave show in the shops. 



At the greenhouses of all local grow- 

 ers the quality of the plants for the 

 great flower day is gratifying. The 

 stock has never looked better and the 

 great quantities should line the pockets 

 of the trade with an extra amount of 

 velvet. 



Various Notes. 



The John Bettmann Co. furnished 

 nearly all of the flowers for the victims 

 of the cyclone, the entire force work- 

 ing all night botli Saturday and Sunday. 



The Jacob Schulz Co. staged a win- 

 dow last week which at times promised 

 to congest traffic. The sale of bird houses 

 was featured and many attractive de- 

 signs shown. The window was screened 

 and birds of many varieties, fluttering 

 among the foliage and bathing in the 

 pools, drew the attention of the passers- 



by. 



We must congratulate Louis Bryant 

 on the arrival of a boy. Mr. Bryant is 

 the popular representative of Anders 

 Kasmussen. 



August Baumer has added a hand- 

 some new car to his delivery equipment. 

 It outshines any car in the flower trade 

 at present. 



W. B. Franz has loft the employ of 

 F. Walker & Co. and we understand has 

 accepted the position of superintendent 

 on one of the large estates at Glenview, 

 Ky. G. G. W. 



Glenwood Springs, Colo. — Mr. and 



Mrs. E. R. Lewis, partners in business 

 as well as in the home, have leased their 

 Charlsen Flower Shop at Emporia, Kan., 

 for two years, and have purchased the 

 Glenwood Greenhouses here.

is a fertilizer carrying in perfect proportion 

 the ten salts constituting soil. It possesses 

 the means of restoring to the soil the native 

 salt or plant food taken up by a crop in its 

 growth, and in so doing maintains the proper 

 percentage of fertility to sustain and build 

 up a healthy crop. It is used by the largest 

 florists in the United States and is unsur- 

 passed as a fertilizer in the cultivation of 

 Tomatoes. Cucumbers, Lettuce and Cereals.
