The Weekly Florists' Review* 



October 27, 1910. 



Shipping Orders 



I HAVE established a very nice city business on the quality 

 of the stock I handle and the attention I give my cus- 

 tomers. With this foundation I am in position to take ex- 

 cellent care of some of the out-of-town buyers who want 

 someone they can depend on to look out for their interests. 

 I will handle rush orders, but I can do specially well by 

 those who will place standing orders for regular shipments. 

 If you are interested, write me to-day.

Mention The Review when vou write 



demand for his carnations and violets. 

 He says mums and lilies also move 

 nicely. 



Heller Bros., of New Castle, are ship- 

 ping large quantities of excellent Beau- 

 ties to E. G. Gillett. He is receiving 

 valley from Carl Deidino, of Lake- 

 wood, O. 



E. Witterstaetter will act as one of 

 the judges at the Indianapolis flower 

 show. At present his force is busy re- 

 pairing the roofs and getting the houses 

 sealed up for the winter. 



L. H. Kyrk has been getting some 

 good Monrovia from Portland, Ind. 



Many of J. A. Peterson's new bego- 

 nia, Glory of Cincinnati, are beginning 

 to bloom, and will undoubtedly soon be 

 in great demand. 



Mr. and Mrs. P. C. Herms, of Ports- 

 mouth, O., celebrated their golden wed- 

 ding anniversary October 3 in their new 

 home on the Scioto river, near the 

 Herms Floral Co. greenhouses. Among 

 many other gifts received by the ven- 

 erable couple there came, in a box of 

 Dutch bulbs recently received by the 

 Herms Floral Co., a pair of typical 

 Dutch wooden shoes as a present from 

 the Dutch firm with whom Mr. Herms 

 does business. 



Wm. Speck, of Newport, Ky., is con- 

 signing his cut of longiflorum lilies to 

 C. E. Critchell. 



The Bloomhurst Floral Co. is surely 

 hitting the high spots, for during the 

 last fortnight their Taft roses have eas- 

 ily been bringing top market prices. 



Jos. Sunnenberg, of the Hyde Park 

 Rose Co., is the proud father of a baby 

 boy weighing eleven pounds. 



George E. Tromey, of the Tromey 

 Flower Shop, went to Chicago last week 

 to see some of the games of the world's 

 series. 



Visitors: B. Eschner, of M. Rice & 

 Co., Philadelphia, and Mr. Jackson, of 

 the American Rose Co., Springfield, O.

INDIANAPOLIS. 



The Market. 



Miss Catherine Zitscher, who for 

 thirty-one years has conducted a flower 

 store on Fifth avenue, Price Hill, was 

 married October 19 to I. Seifert, of 

 Richmond, Ind. They will live in 

 Richmond. 



Trade has been quite satisfactory for 

 the last two weeks. Stock has been 

 plentiful — almost too plentiful, to tell 

 the truth. Up to this date we have not 

 had a killing frost, which is something 

 unusual, as we generally have a killing 

 frost about the middle of September. 

 Dahlias and cosmos are still arriving in 

 wagon-loads, which no doubt is a detri- 

 ment to the mums. Beauties and Kil- 

 larneys are good. Brides and Maids 

 are improving. Orchids and valley have 

 been in good demand. Some single vio- 

 lets are to be had. Carnations are of 

 good quality for this time of the year. 



Various Notes. 



Flower show matters are progressing 

 nicely and all indications point to the 

 best show ever. The final premium list 

 was mailed out last week. Anyone who 



has not received it can secure one from 

 Secretary Baur. The premium list 

 should prove attractive, as there are a 

 number of liberal prizes. Judging from 

 the number of inquiries, the entries 

 will probably be large. The press com- 

 mittee, under the supervision of Her- 

 man Junge, has been working overtime, 

 and if the show lacks in publicity it 

 will not be their fault. A banquet has 

 been arranged for Thursday night, ^t 

 which the visiting florists are to be 

 entertained. 



The Indianapolis florists will make a 

 trip to Richmond on Wednesday, No- 

 vember 2. This should be an interest- 

 ing trip, as the show mums will be at 

 their best at that time. We are figur- 

 ing on a large party to make the trip, 

 and any neighboring florists are invited 

 to get on the band wagon. For further 

 information inquire of Secretary A. F. 

 J. Baur, as he has the arrangements in 

 hand. 



W. W. Coles, of Kokomo, Ind., was
