The Florists' Review 



Skptembeu 6, 1917. 



INDIANAPOLIS. 



The Market. 



Stock of all kinds is in limited sup- 

 ply. Lilies continue on tlie short side, 

 but are in active demand. The season 

 for gladioli is drawing to an end; the 

 flowers show this by their inferiority. 

 Snapdragons have been most satisfac- 

 tory for this time of year. Boses are 

 not in the least conspicuous. A few 

 carnations find their way to the market, 

 but as yet they are not in quantity. 

 Cosmos and physostegias are valuable 

 additions, and statice continues to be 

 popular in bouquets, baskets and funeral 

 pieces. Buddleias, phloxes and cut hy- 

 drangea blooms are largely utilized in 

 funeral Avork. 



A few rarely fine asters are available, 

 but they are by no means ample. Dah- 

 lias have put in their appearance, but 

 the crop is not promising. Ferns have 

 begun to be in good favor again, and 

 they will soon be in greater demand. 

 In another week the schools will be 

 opened, and there will be several hun- 

 dred schoolrooms to be made as at- 

 tractive as possible. 



Various Notes. 



John Eisner and son are away on a 

 fishing trip. 



Edward Eeinkin now is with the A. 

 Wiegand 's Sons Co. 



Sidney Smith, of San Antonio, Tex., 

 previously of Baur & Smith, has been 

 here visiting his mother. Mr. Smith 

 left Indianapolis on account of his 

 health, and the Texas climate certainly 

 agrees with him. 



Harry Bohne has been exempted from 

 the national draft army. 



The Circle theater is being elabo- 

 rately decorated this week for its anni- 

 versary. The entrance, lobby and stage 

 are veritable bowers, the work of the 

 Circle Flower Store. The store staff has 

 also been busy with weddings and par- 

 ties. 



Several of the local florists intend 

 to exhibit at the state fair this year, 

 and it looks as if there will be lively 

 competition. 



John Eieman has been displaying 

 some excellent yellow chrysanthemums. 

 They were the first to be seen in In- 

 dianapolis this season. 



Otto Eieman, with Hartje & Elder, 

 has been enjoying a week's vacation. 



The Indianapolis Flower & Plant Co.

 and roses. E. E. T.
