The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



NOTBHBER 5, 1908. 



MILWAUKEE. 



The Market. 



While the supply last week was equiv- 

 alent to that of the week previous, the 

 demand was not so brisk. Especially 

 did the fancy mums, in all colors except 

 yellow, stack up considerably and some 

 report that, even at a much reduced 

 price, compared with last season, the^' 

 could not be moved. It was the inferior 

 grade that moved best. Roses are still 

 plentiful, with carnations equal to the 

 demand and all other stock in good sup- 

 ply. Even All Saints' day had no 

 marked effect on the local flower market. 



Various Notes. 



The establishment at North Mil- 

 waukee, formerly owned by Aug. Manke, 

 but which has been run as a partnership 

 business the Istst season, has now passed 

 into the hands of his sons, "William and 

 Fred Manke. There are six acres of 

 land, together with the greenhouses and 

 other outfit. As the boys have been on 

 the place from the start, they no doubt 

 will continue to be successful. The firm 

 will be known as Manke Bros. 



Wm. Muehl, former manager of the 

 place now occupied by Lutey Bros., North 

 Milwaukee, has accepted a position with 

 Herman Staeps, Elm Grove, Wis. 



Quite a delegation from this vicinity 

 will visit the national flower show at 

 Chicago. E. O. 



Waltham, Mass. — A store was re- 

 cently opened at the comer of Moody 

 and Bobbins streets, by the Waltham 

 Floral Co., of which Carl Frederickson 

 is designated as proprietor, and R. L. 

 Goinsalvos as manager. 



Mabyville, Mo. — Alfred Engelmann, 

 who was formerly a grower for Weiland 

 & Bisch, at Evanston, 111., has bought 

 the greenhouses and business of C. H. 

 HoUied and will do both a wholesale and 

 retail trade. There are two acres of 

 ground and 10,000 square feet of glass. 

 Mr. Engelmann expects to have a good 

 stock on hand by spring. He will devote 

 special attention to wholesale trade in 

 rpoted cuttings.
