The Florists^ Review 



DlOMBIB 19, 1018. 



EVANSVILLE, IND. 



The Market. 



There is no let-up in funeral work, so, 

 although there are good cuts of flowers, 

 stock is still short of the demand. After 

 a few rainy da^s, the weather has 

 cleared and the prospects are good for 

 a fair supply of flowers and plants for 

 Christmas. Prices are high and prob- 

 ably will continue to be so for some 

 time. 



Various Notes. 



William Gardner, superintendent of 

 the city parks^ died last week after a 

 short illness with pneumonia, following 

 the influenza. Mr. Gardner had been 

 in Evansville four years and was well 

 known to the florists of the city. He 

 was a graduate of the Michigan Agri- 

 cultural College. Three years ago Mr. 

 Gardner married Miss Mildred White, 

 of Bucyrus, 0., his birthplace. The 

 body was shipped to Bucyrus for burial. 



Theodore Kuebler has his stand in the 

 Municipal market well decorated with 

 ferns, begonias and other plants for 

 Christmas. All of the members of his 

 family and his force have been ill with 

 the influenza. 



M. L. Lockyear, of the Lockyear 

 Floral Co., visited Seubold's Green- 

 houses, at Huntingburg, last week in 

 quest of stock. 



Mrs. J. C. Elspermann continues to 

 have a heavy run of funeral work. 



The William Blackman Floral Co. re- 

 ports that funeral work is plentiful, but 

 stock is not. 



C. L. Niednagel is cutting some fine 

 Columbia, Bussell, Milady and Eillarney 

 roses. He expects the cuts to continue 

 until Christmas. 



Niednagel & Sons have a fine lot of 

 carnations for Christmas. 



Karl Zeidler is expected back from a 

 hunting trip to Mississippi in time for 

 the Christmas rush. 



E. L. Fenton has received a card from 

 Ernest L. Lutz, dated in Belgium. He 

 expects to return early in February.

The Lancaster County Florists* Club 

 held its annual banquet December 10 in 

 Brenneman hall, with thirty members 

 present. President Elmer J. Weaver 

 appointed David Bose, Lemon S. Landis 

 and Eudolph Nagle to take charge of 

 the sports and entertainment. J. Wade 

 Gayley, of Strasburg, carried off the first 

 prize in the bowling contest, and A. P. 

 Strickler was awarded the booby prize 

 in the same game. Charles B. Herr, of 

 Strasburg, won first honors in the card 

 games. Billiards and pool were enjoyed 

 by some of the members, while others 

 visited together and discussed business 

 matters. 



The buffet lunch was enjoyed by all 

 and A. F. Strickler and Lemon Landis 

 were voted delightful hosts. Mr. 

 Weaver's sweet cider was a delicious 

 beverage. 



A short business session was held 

 afterwards, at which nominations for 

 oiBeeris for 1919 resulted as follows: 

 V: President, Elmer J. Weaver; vice-presi- 

 k^' dent, Lemon S. Landis; secretary, Al-
