The Florists^ Review 



NOTBMBBB 21, 1918. 



Bui-FALO, N. Y. 



The Market. 



During the last week the demand has 

 not kept up with the supply. The rea- 

 son for this is that carnations, violets 

 and roses again are arriving in good 

 supply and of course the mums have the 

 call until Thanksgiving. By all indica- 

 tions it would appear that after the day 

 of the chrysanthemum, the stock arriv- 

 ing will all be taken up at good prices. 

 The surplus now is slight compared with 

 the same time last year. Good pompons 

 and mums have the preference, but there 

 is little poor stock on the market. The 

 light-colored flowers are taken up for 

 use in floral work, so really all there is 

 left is odd colors. The roses arriving 

 are good, though Sunburst during the 

 last two weeks has come in with light 

 heads and weak stems. American Beau- 

 ties drag. They have given way almost 

 entirely to fancy chrysanthemums. 

 Some of the growers are bringing in 

 good carnations, but as yet much of this 

 stock is short-stemmed and small-flow- 

 ered. Lately the supply of Easter lilies 

 has been such that one has been able to 

 get some without leaving an order a 

 week ahead. 



Various Notes. 



S. A. Anderson was chosen by a large 

 majority for county treasurer. Mr. An- 

 derson 's campaign was conducted on the 

 principle of "A business man for a busi- 

 ness position." The people will not be 

 disappointed in this respect, for Mr. An- 

 derson surely is a business man and the 

 trade is glad to have him in office. 



L. H. Neubeck has had a larger chrys- 

 anthemum trade this fall than in any 

 past season. Mr. Neubeck had most of 

 the early varieties and they came in just 

 at the time when they were most needed. 

 Karl Butz, his grower, reports that he 

 has a fine lot of cyclamens, which will 

 take the cake after Thanksgiving.

LOUISVILLE, KY. 



The Market. 



All kinds of stock are coming in and 

 most of it is in fair condition. Ophelia 

 roses are of excellent quality, as are 

 Sunburst. American Beauties are good 

 but scarce. Carnations are coming in 

 and they bring good prices. Calendulas 

 are in great demand and are of fair 

 qualuy. Bouvardia and valley seem to 

 be in "the lead for corsage work, with 

 orchids and violets in combination. Or- 

 chids are short of the demand. Chrys- 

 anthemums are unusually fine and are 

 coming in quantities. Few blooming 

 plants are seen on the market. 



Various Notes. 



Mrs. F. M. Brownewell, wife of Mr. 

 Brownewcll, designer for the Jacob 

 Schulz Co., is ill at her home on West- 

 ern parkway. 



The Jacob Schulz Co. is busy these 

 davs with landscape work. 



Adam Heitz had good luck last week 

 in shooting a number of rabbits. We 

 are pleased to report that Mrs. Heitz is 

 improving in health. 



Since the glad news of peace was re- 

 ceived, all the florists have had many 

 orders for decorations and corsage work. 



Funeral work has held up consider- 

 ably during the last week. 



Shipping work and telegraphic orders 

 are keeping the florists busy. L. K.
