The Florists^ Review 



September 11, 1919. 



EVANSVILLE, IND. 



The Market. 



Business is excellent. Flowers are 

 scarce, since the hot, dry weather is 

 cutting short the outdoor crop. Asters 

 are drying up. There are plenty ot 

 small, short-stemmed flowers, but long- 

 stemmed stock is lacking. Boses and 

 carnations are improving. There will 

 probably be a shortage of carnations, 

 owing to a shortage of plants. 



Various Notes. 



Theodore Kuebler expects a short 

 crop of asters because of lack of rain. 

 His clirysanthemums are in fine condi- 

 tion. He will build another house this 

 fall. 



O. S. Smith says that he will have to 

 buy heavily to stock up again. He 

 has much difficulty in getting carna- 

 tion plants. 



Mrs. J. C. Elspermann is busy with 

 funeral work and the rebuilding of the 

 greenhouses. The last house has been 

 torn down and will be rebuilt at once. 



The Wm. Blackman Floral Co. reports 

 heavy business. Walter Blackman, in 

 charge at the store, has purchased a new 

 roadster. 



Royston & Fenton are preparing for 

 a busy season in coleus, of which they 

 have a fine stock, both of Brilliancy and 

 mixed. They have had their boiler over- 

 hauled and a new set of flues installed. 

 They have a batch of Orange King ca- 

 lendulas ready for the market. H. J. 

 Royston is in bad health and unable to 

 attend to any work. He is 76 years 

 of age. 



William Halbrooks expects to plant his 

 two houses to sweet peas for this season. 



J. D. Carmody, who is 83 years old, is 

 again in fair health — after serious kid- 

 ney trouble. His doctor says he has still 

 some years to live. 



James A. Blackburn, of Mount Ver- 

 non, Ind., was a recent visitor, buying 

 material for a small house which lie is 

 building, since he is returning to the 

 business after a vear's absence from it.
