The Weekly Rorists' Review^ 



December 7, 1911. 



EVANSVILLE, IND. 



The Market. 



Thanksgiving trade was a decided 

 improvement over other years. Eoses, 

 carnations and mums were in demand, 

 mums especially, and these were plenti- 

 ful. Eoses were off crop, but carna- 

 tions were more plentiful. Business 

 for November in general was greater 

 than last ygar and the weather has 

 been favorable for growing. The 

 month was unusually cold, but the sun 

 was much in evidence. Chrysanthe- 

 mums are about gone, but there will 

 be a few coming in for a week or two. 



Various Notes. 



Julius Niednagel & Sons enjoyed a 

 large November trade. The funeral 

 work was not so heavy, but they had 

 about forty decorations during the 

 month and this, with their other work, 

 kept them on the go.' The mums are 

 about gone, but the carnations are full 

 of buds and look fine for Christmas. 

 Not many flowers were seen, but the 

 fact that they are cut so closely to sup- 

 ply the demand explains this. The 

 roses also look good for a Christmas 

 crop, the two Killarneys especially be- 

 ing full of buds, but Emil Niednagel 

 says he doesn't care much whether 

 the crop is on for Christmas or not, as 

 they will have enough to do anyhow 

 and the roses are always in demand at 

 other times. 



The Blackman Floral Co. looks for 

 a heavy crop of carnations for Christ- 

 mas. They will have an abundance of 

 seasonable plants also, but the crop of 

 roses will not be so heavy. More mums 

 will be planted next year, as they did 

 not have nearly enough of their own 

 this season and had to buy large quanti- 

 ties. This firm will build two new houses 

 soon; the material is being gathered 

 together now. George Blackman says 

 he had a chance to get a lot of glass at 

 a bargain and took advantage of it 

 and bought. Frank Woelz has taken 

 charge of the roses in place .of Harry 

 Wallis, who left a few weeks ago. 



J. C. Elsperman reports a fine trade 

 for Thanksgiving, it being much better 

 than last year. He had lots of mums 

 and about cleaned them out, but will 

 have a few for a week or more. 



Mrs. Seymour has so far regained 

 her strength as to be up and about the 

 house. She is improving steadily. 



Miss Nellie Goodge is gaining and 

 is looking much better. 



T. L. Metcalfe, of Hopkinsville, Ky., 

 who opened a store at 210 West Fifth 

 street, didn 't last long and gave up the 

 store the dav after Thanksgiving.
