The Florists^ Review 



March 4, 1920 



H. O. Meikel, of Frankfort, Ind,, was 

 recently operated on for appendicitis 

 and is getting along nicely now. 



E. E. T. 



Ernest Viewegh has taken Kobert P. 

 Kiefer into partnership with him and 

 they are now operating as Viewegh & 

 Kiefer at 1318 North Haugh street. 



MILWAUKEE, WIS. 



The Market. 



The first accumulation of flowers in 

 three months is the feature of this mar- 

 ket now. It is thought by those in a 

 position to judge the incoming crops 

 that this oV'Crsupply is temporary and 

 that the market will tighten again, 

 probably not in the extreme way which 

 has been experienced in the last few 

 months, but enough to prevent the de- 

 struction of valuable stock. The pres- 

 ent accumulation is due, not to over- 

 production, as the records of previous 

 years show production to be nearly nor- 

 mal, but almost entirely to a decreased 

 demand, coming at a time when weather 

 conditions were such as to bring out an 

 abundance of stock that needed only a 

 few good growing days to mature it. 



Eoses which brought from 10 to 50 

 cents each sell now at 6 to 35 cents 

 each, a quantity purchase bringing a 

 lower figure. Carnations bringing ordi- 

 narily $14 per hundred now go at no 

 higher than $6 per hundred for extra 

 fancies. Sweet peas which sold two 

 weeks ago for $5 per hundred can now 

 be had for $15 per thousand. Lilies 

 formerly priced at $4 per dozen now go 

 at $1.75 and $2 per dozen. Daffodils, 

 tulips and and other spring flowers are 

 about one-half their former value in the 

 market. 



The quality of the stock is excellent; 

 in most lines, it is far ahead of high- 

 priced stock of a few weeks previous. 



The demand for potted hyacinths, tu- 

 lips, daffodils, etc., is good and the sup- 

 ply adequate. 



Various Notes. 



The prospect for lilies, roses and hy- 

 drangeas for Easter is good; there will 

 also be some good bulbous stock. 



J. E. Schaeffer and E. G. Steitz, of 

 St. Louis, Mo., were in the city last 

 week looking over the Easter stock. 



Miss Rose Semler, of the Edlefsen- 

 Leidiger Co., is making a business trip 

 to New York citv and the east. 



A. H. M. 



Major Frederick Kensel, lately re- 

 signed from the Marine Corps, will act 

 aa representative of the A. L. Bandall 

 Co. here. His wide experience and 

 travels especially fit him to undertake 

 this position.
