The Weekly Florists' Review* 



Sbptembbb 16, 1909. 



MILWAUKEE. 



TheWiuket 



There is quite a noticeable improve- 

 ment in business over last week, and no 

 doubt it will continue to improve as the 

 days of autumn draw nearer. Eoses are 

 about equal to the demand, with a special 

 call for whites and Beauties. Carnations 

 are gradually improving in quality, and 

 are moving well. The same can be said 

 of asters. The supply of gladioli is away 

 ahead of the demand, and it is not an un- 

 usual thing to still have some on hand 

 after the hours of business are past. The 

 green goods market is well supplied, with 

 the exception of smilax, which is a scarce 

 article. 



Various Notes. 



The C. C. PoUworth Co. says that or- 

 ders for bulbs are coming along finely, 

 and they are quite satisfied with business 

 in general thus far. 



A. Groth, of North Milwaukee, has 

 torn down his old boiler-shed and pack- 

 ing-room and is now building one large 

 shed to cover the entire west end of his 

 greenhouses. This will give him ample 

 room for a large office and storage room. 



Mrs. Ennis, of the Wisconsin Floral 

 Co., is an optimist, for she says that the 

 way business is now and the manner in 

 which people do their buying is a sure 

 sign of the coming season being the best 

 yet. They have a good deal of transient 

 trade, so that sounds good. 



William Zimmerman says that he has 

 had abundant wedding work the last fort- 

 night. He will attend a convention at 

 Omaha, Neb., the middle of this week. 



H. V. Hunkel, chairman of the execu- 

 tive committee of the Milwaukee flower 

 show, says that the premium list contains 

 about $3,000 for prize money. They in- 

 tend to mail the regidar premium list and 

 application blanks in about two weeks. 

 Preliminary lists can now be had for the 

 asking. 



The store of Edlefsen-Leidiger Co., 

 which has always appeared in a light 

 shade, is now painted dark green, which 

 is rather odd and catches the eye at once. 



The Holton & Hunkel Co. say they 

 have a brisk demand for all the Beauties 

 they are cutting these days, which 

 speaks well, for they are cutting heavily. 



W. E. Macklin, of Stevens Point, Wis., 

 stopped off here on his way home from 

 Canada, where he has been to visit his 

 former home. Other visitors were: Christ. 

 Lund, of Wausau, Wis.; J. F. Johnson, 

 of Ft. Smith, Ark. ; E. J. Fancourt, with 

 Pennock-Mcehan Co., Philadelphia, Pa. 



M. P. Vallier, late secretary of the 

 Florists' Club, spent Sunday, September 

 12, in Chicago. E. O.
