The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



June 30, 1910. 



INDIANAPOLIS. 



The Market. 



This has been a strenuous week for 

 Indianapolis florists, as there were quite 

 a number of prominent funerals that 

 called for the best the market could 

 give. Everything in the flower line 

 was used. One of the prominent funer- 

 als was that of Mr. Test, the president 

 of the National Automobile Co. A. 

 Wiegand & Sons had this company's 

 work, which was the largest seen in 

 this city for some weeks. 



.Shasta daisies and gladioli are be- 

 ginning to come in now and meet with 

 ready sale. Killarney roses, Beauties, 

 valley and orchids have been in demand 

 for .tune weddings and for gifts for a 

 number of prominent people .who are 

 going abroad this summer. 



Our dry spell was broken by a rain 

 that lasted all day Monday. It came 

 none too soon, as the grass and flowers 

 were beginning to feel the effects of 

 the hot weather that we have had for 

 the last three weeks. 



Various Notes. 



The Pahud Floral Co. is going to 

 build two new greenhouses this sum- 

 mer. Charles Pahud reports that the 

 newly purchased motorcycle is a suc- 

 cess. 



The committee in charge of the flower 

 show met last week and formulated a 

 premium list amounting to about $2,000. 

 The list can be secured from A. F. J. 

 Baur. 



Eobert Elder, foreman for Berter- 

 mann Bros., at Cumberland, is the proud 

 father of twins. 



S. S. Skidelsky spent a few days in 

 the city this week. Mr. Skidelsky has 

 just returned from his first trip to Colo- 

 rado, which has been quite successful. 



A. F. J. Baur is going to spend July 

 4 in Eichmond, with relatives. 



Fred Dorner and J. S. Stuart were 

 in the city last week attending the 

 flower show committee meeting. 



Alfred Brandt has purchased a Max- 

 well runabout. Mr. Brandt is having 

 a removable delivery body constructed 

 and intends to use the machine both 

 for pleasure and business. H. L. W.
