The Florists^ Review 



OCTOBBB 30, 1919. 



MILWAXJKEE, WIS. 



Tbe Market. 



The influx of chrysanthemums has 

 broken the market in a bad way. Prices 

 are still firm on fancy and colored stock, 

 but white goes begging. The smaller 

 sorts are not nearly as good as they 

 should be and are becoming overabun- 

 dant. The heavy supply of mums has 

 affected the price of roses. While roses 

 are not yet cheap, they do not bring 

 what they are worth at this time. Car- 

 nations are the only flowers which have 

 maintained their price and some have 

 advanced. 



Local buying is not heavy and the re- 

 tailer appears timid about stocking his 

 place. Shipping business is good. Pot- 

 ted plants continue to arrive in large 

 quantities, mums most heavily. 



Various Notes. 



Fritsch Bros., on National avenue, 

 have an attractive window of pumpkins 

 and pumpkin baskets filled with flowers. 



J. M. Fox & Son arranged a pretty 

 Halloween window of oak leaves, corn- 

 stalks and flowers. 



Eric Dietz, of Wm. Busig Co., New 

 York, and P. Ruppert, of Philip Car- 

 bone, Boston, called on the trade last 

 week. A. H. M. 



The C. C. Pollworth Co. has just fin- 

 ished potting up and shipping out a 

 carload of French hydrangeas. This 

 firm has received a large consignment 

 of cyclamen seed from Germany. 



Eva Pollworth, mother of C. C. Poll- 

 worth, died Sunday morning, October 

 26, at the age of 78 years. Mrs. Poll- 

 worth made her home with her son. She 

 was buried from his residence October 

 29. 



Delphi, Ind. — Edwin Baum purchased 

 the interest of the widow of Mr. Myers 

 in the firm of Myers & Baum after Mr. 

 Myers' death June 1 and now operates 

 the business under the title of Edwin 

 Baum & Son.
