The Florists' Review 



August 9, 1917. 



MILWAUKEE. 



The Market. 



A spell of extremely hot weather has 

 left the trade in a rather wilted condi- 

 tion. What little stock there is in the 

 market is in about the same condition 

 and the business done is next to nothing. 

 The demand seems to be strong for this 

 time of year, but the supply is so limited 

 that there is nothing left to sell after 

 the standing orders have been taken 

 care of. 



Carnations are scarce and only of 

 medium quality. The throwing out 

 process is nearing completion, but the 

 new plants are smaller than usual and 

 are not coming along so fast as hereto- 

 fore. Asters are not arriving in any 

 quantity as yet, so it is impossible to use 

 these as a substitute for carnations. 



Roses are arriving in small quantities 

 and the quality is not so good as it 

 might be. This stock is moving with 

 no effort and a much larger quantity 

 could be handled to advantage were it 

 available. Lilies have shortened con- 

 siderably and the demand easily takes 

 care of the receipts each day. Valley 

 remains scarce and is cleaned up early 

 each day. 



There is a fair quantity of gladioli 

 being handled each day, but this is . a 

 small item and does not help tifie short- 

 age, which is really acute ^usfr\n!B.\^ de- 

 spite the fact that business is^ light. 



Various Notes. 



John J. Stuppy, of the Stuppy Floral 

 Co., St. Joseph, Mo., was a visitor 

 July 31. 



M. E. Horacek, with the Hiawatha 

 Gardens Co., Minneapolis, Minn., and 

 G. A. Lien, of Washburn, Wis., were 

 also visitors last week. 



From present reports, it seems that 

 C. C. PoUworth is the only local man 

 who contemplates attending the con- 

 vention. H. J. S.
