MILWAUKEE. 



The Market. 



Outside of funeral work, there was 

 not much doing last week. So it was 

 a real blessing that the supply of cut 

 tiowers was not ahead of that which 

 has been coming in since the holidays. 

 Especially in roses and carnations has 

 the shortage been pronounced. While 

 thes'e just about go around, a few large 

 rush orders would have caused some 

 trouble. Still, with sunshine the last 

 few days of last week and the first 

 two of this week, we look forward to 

 a greater supply of stock and — inci- 

 dentally — orders. Bulbous stock is 

 coming in move heavily from day to 

 day; even a few light colored tulips

Various Notes. 



At the automobile show, which came 

 to a close January 20, the Aug. F. 

 Kellner Co., which had charge of the 

 decorations, used a good lot of wild 

 smilax, palms, cedar and purple beech 

 sprays to good advantage. 



The C. C. Pollworth Co. reports satis- 

 faction with the way the shipping 

 trade keeps up. 



August Kellner and Albert Grosskopf 

 spent Saturday afternoon and Sunday 

 at Okauchee lake, looking for fish. But 

 there wasn't much doing there, either. 



The Holton & Hunkel Co. received 

 the first white and yellow tulips from 

 the Humboldt avenue place last week. 



February 20 the new oflScers of the 



Florists' Club will have a chance to 

 show what we may expect the coming 

 season. We ought to honor them with 

 a good attendance. 



Visitors: James Matthewson, She- 

 boygan, Wis.; Jos. Wagner, Beaver 

 Dam, Wis. E. O. 



N. Zweifel is much pleased with the 

 reception which has been accorded 

 Carnation Bright Spot at the various 

 florists' clubs at which he has been 

 exhibiting it this month. In practi- 

 cally every case it has been given an 

 award of merit or some similar recom- 

 mendation. Visitors . to his place at 

 North Milwaukee say it is looking fine. 



Bellevue, Pa.— The Neff National 

 Floral Co. has been incorporated here, 

 with a capital stock of $75,000.
