The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



May 27, 1909. 



MIL'V'AUKEE. 



The Market 



Although there was a heavy supply in 

 all lines all last week, still everybody was 

 kept busy enough to keep stock on the 

 move. Even the end of the week found 

 everything cleaned up. Funeral work 

 again was an important factor. 



Everything at present points to a good 

 Memorial day business, which this year 

 will continue for three days instead of 

 one, as the legal holiday falls on Sunday. 

 Prospects at present are that there will 

 be plenty of all indoor as well as outdoor 

 cut flowers. The unusually cool weather, 

 especially at night, has retarded the out- 

 door stock, which this year will be just 

 in its prime. Lilacs, snowballs, valley 

 and late tulips will be in bloom just on 

 time. 



Vwioiu Notes. 



The Mueller & Schroeder Co. is cut- 

 ting some extra fine snapdragons, with 

 stems from four to six feet long. At 

 present the firm is installing another 

 boiler, necessitated by the new addition, 

 which is now completed. 



The engagement of Miss Valeria Edlef- 

 sen to Kichard Eihlman was announced 

 last week. She is the youngest daughter 

 of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Edlefsen, of the 

 Edlefsen-Leidiger Co., and is well known 

 to all, as she was at one time one of the 

 store hands. 



John F. Pollworth died May 19, aged 

 71, of a complication of organic trou- 

 bles. He is survived by his wife and 

 seven sons, two of whom, C. C. and Joe 

 E. Pollworth, are in the wholesale florists ' 

 business. He took a great deal of interest 

 in floriculture, and consequently came in 

 contact with most of the local florists. 

 The large number of floral emblems at 

 his funeral were a sign of the high es- 

 teem in which he was held. The funeral 

 took place Saturday morning, May 22. 



About the same time that Mr. Poll- 

 worth died, W. A. Kennedy, a member of 

 the C. C. Pollworth Co., and superin- 

 tendent at the greenhouses, received no- 

 tice of his mother's death in New Jersey. 

 Mr. and Mrs. Kennedy left at once for 

 the east. 



Tom Cassidy, one of the older hands 

 at the Pollworth commission store, is 

 confined to bed, threatened with typhoid 

 fever. 



The Holton & Hunkel Co. reports a 

 large amount of orders on hand for Me- 

 morial day. Shipping trade with them 

 continues most satisfactory. 



The next club meeting taJies place June 

 3, and matters pertaining to the fall 

 flower show will be taken up. E. O.
