The Florists^ Review 



NOVBMBBB 17, 1921 



MTLWAUKEE, WIS. 



The Market. 



Last week business was fair. Stock 

 cleaned up in good shape, especially in 

 the better grades. Good pompona in all 

 colors and choice single-stemmed large 

 chrysanthemums sold out clean, but 

 some inferior stock was sold at reduced 

 prices to move it. There was a good 

 supply of roses and the demand was 

 principally for short Jind medium 

 grades. Carnations are of fine quality, 

 but the demand for pompons decreases 

 the demand for carnations. Paper 

 Whites, sweet peas and violets are aj)- 

 pearing on the market in limited quan- 

 tities. 



Various Notes. 



Near the end of last week consider- 

 able advertising was done for Armistice 

 day, which created quite a little addi- 

 tional demand. It was not so notice- 

 able, on flowers worn by individuals, as 

 anticipated, but it stimulated a heavy 

 demand for flowers Friday and Satur- 

 day, November 11 and 12, when about 

 ten bodies of the soldier boys arrived 

 from France, for whom public memorial 

 services were hold at the Auditorium, 

 where they were all placed Saturday and 

 Sunday. Fine large floral pieces were 

 sent to these services. Our local florists' 

 club made up an exceptionally fine, 

 large wreath, which was sent over. A 

 great many other organizations also sent 

 flowers. 



The Holton & Ilunkel Co. is doing con- 

 siderable altering in its new store, into 

 which it will move Decem))er 1. Among 

 the improvements will be the installing 

 of a refrigerating machine. 



The C. C. PoUworth Co. has taken over 

 the Klokner Greenhouses, which come in 

 handy at this time for the growing of 

 hydrangeas, roses, lilies and bedding 

 stock for the coming season. 



New houses that have been built late 

 in the season and are now being opened 

 are: Two houses of H. A. Meyer Co., 

 North avenue; the house of St('i)Iieu 

 Varga, on the Blue Mound road; the 

 two hotiscs of .1. Aumueller; the two 

 bouses of Charles F. Kitzerow. 17.'$.3 Port 

 Washington road, and the house of 

 liielis Uros., of Nortli Milwaukee, from 

 which tliey are cutting stock. 



Some of the Hollanders are already 

 appearing and soliciting business for 

 next season. P. 



Granville^ O. — H. S. Strickler has one 

 greenhouse here and is now erecting 

 another. This will be used for flowers. 

 In the past Mr. Strickler has grown 

 mostly lettuce, garden plants and just a 

 few flowers.
