The Weekly Florists' Review. 



Dbcbmbxb 1, 1910. 



INDIANAFOLIS. 



Tbe Market. 



Thanksgiving business in most cases 

 was much better than last year. Stock 

 of all kinds was plentiful, but it was 

 pretty well cleaned up. Chrysanthe> 

 mums probably sold better than any- 

 thing else, the medium sizes being in 

 demand. Violets were of good quality 

 and brought top-notch prices. Carna- 

 tions moved well and were of extra 

 good cjuality. Orchids and valley, 

 mostly in corsages, sold well. 



The florists at the Indianapolis Flow- 

 er Market report a satisfactory busi- 

 ness for Thanksgiving. The weather 

 was unusually fine this year, which is 

 quite a factor in their business. By 

 night the flowers were i)retty well 

 cleaned up, most of them bringing good 

 prices. These florists had their usual 

 advertising in the daily papers, an- 

 nouncing their special display of flowers 

 for Thanksgiving. 



Various Notes. 



Smith & Young Co. has been sending 

 in some extra fine Brides and Maids. 



The auto repair bills for some of the 

 local florists were heavy last week. The 

 delivery truck of Bertermann Bros. Co. 

 ran into a log wagon, putting the auto 

 in the repair shop for a couple of days. 

 It did not damage the log wagon. The 

 car of Wiegand & Sons had a collision 

 with another auto, putting them both 

 out of commission for a while. Homer 

 Wiegand had a collision with another 

 car, almost tearing the top off the other 

 one. 



E. A. Nelson has been enjoying some 

 splendid luck hunting. 



Charles Pahud is the father of a 

 bright, smiling, ten-pound girl. 



S. S. Skidelsky and J. McHuchison 

 were in the city last week. Both re- 

 port business good. 



The Indianapolis Flower & Plant Co. 

 is cutting some fine Brides. 



H. L. W. 



Bethlehem, Pa. — John E. Haines is 

 using two post cards in colors, 

 one showing the exterior and the other 

 the interior of his retail store. Mr. 

 Haines' well known figure appears in 

 each picture.
