The Weekly Florists' Review. 



Fedhuary 29, 1912. 



MILWAUKEE. 



The Market. 



Business dropped off a little more 

 than was anticipated with the open- 

 ing of the lenten season and for a 

 short time stock accumulated more 

 than at any time this year; weather 

 conditions also helped to bring along 

 stock a little more rapidly, which re- 

 sulted in a cut in prices all around. 

 Carnations for once were plentiful and 

 from reports there will be enough to 

 go around from now on. In fact, there 

 was no shortage of an}-^ stock at any 

 time, with the exception of American 

 Beauties. 



Various Notes. 



Wm. Zimmermann's delivery auto- 

 mobile got in a bad mix-up last Friday 

 and from reports drew the short end 

 of the deal. This firm reports business 

 as keeping up well ever since Valen- 

 tine's day. 



Currie Bros. Co.. was kept l>usy all 

 day Sunday with funeral work. It 

 was a surprise that one funeral which 

 was to have taken place Monday was, 

 owing to the inclemency of the weather, 

 ])ostponed until Tuesday 



At J. M. Fox & Son's store a gen 

 eral run of business has kept them 

 busy for the last fortnight. 



Milwaukee was visited by the worst 

 blizzard of the season February 2.1 and 

 26. By Monday night there were so 

 many snowdrifts that traflic was next 

 ro impossible; city cars were out of 

 commission and the steam roads did 

 not fare much better. • ' We had more 

 trouble during that snow storm to get 

 the express companies to call for and 

 ileliver goods than we have all win- 

 ter," was the report that came from 

 the 0. Rusch Co. on ^fonday night. 



C. C. Pollworth "s greenhouses are now 

 i-utting a fine lot of carnations; their 

 large cut of Easter lilies of late has 

 been just the thing for funeral worlc 

 orders. 



At the range of Holton &- llunkel Co., 

 on Humboldt avenue, the jiot plants for 

 Easter are coming along in g(»od shape, 

 while the lilies look' t'spefially inoniis- 

 ing at this time. 



A visit to the ^lueller S: Schroeder 

 Co., February li."), revealed as i)retty 

 and (dean a batch of carnations as one 

 would want to see. All benches are a 

 mass of buds in different stages, while 

 the young jdants are in prime condi- 

 tion. 



Frank .Tohnson. of the A. Tj. Ran- 

 dall Co., called on the trade to satisfy 

 their wants in Easter su]ijilies. An- 

 other visitor Avas ^T. B. Lassen, Kai^ine.
