The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



S^DBtTABT 9, 1911. 



EVANSVILLE, IND. 



The Market. 



Business last week was large, with 

 not enough stock to go around. Boses 

 and carnations have been especially in 

 demand. The weather has been un- 

 favorable for most cut flowers; clouds 

 have been the rule, with not more than 

 one day of sunshine a week. 



McKinley day was quiet, there being 

 little call for carnations, but the florists 

 are expecting that St. Valentine's day 

 will make a better showing. 



Various Notes. 



The Wm. Blackman Floral Co. reports 

 a fine trade, especially in funeral work, 

 but says there was no special demand 

 for carnations McKinley day. 



Julius Niednagel & Sons have been 

 busy with funeral work and wedding 

 decorations. Their Killarneys are off 

 crop, but they are cutting lots of Ivory 

 and carnations are in good crop, with 

 a big demand. Curt Niednagel was back 

 on the job helping out during a recent 

 rush of work. He has bought a 38-aere 

 farm about two miles out in the country 

 and intends to take possession soon. He 

 had intended going west, but changed 

 his plans. The land is valuable and sit- 

 uated nicely. 



Ben Kramer says there was no special 

 call for carnations McKinley day. Trade 

 has been large and steady in funeral 

 work. He is making preparations for 

 a good demand St. Valentine's day. 



Louis Fritsch has been busy and has 

 had a hard time in getting enough flow- 

 ers. He says he had quite a demand 

 for carnations on McKinley day. 



Eoyston & Fenton do not have nearly 

 enough roses to supply the demand. 



Nellie Goodge is not in the best of 

 health, but manages to be at the green- 

 houses right along. E. L. F. 



Eeading, Pa. — W. K. Hoskin has se- 

 cured the contract for the planting of 

 the grounds at the waterworks reser- 

 voirs. 



Homell, N. Y.— The Wettlin Floral 

 Co. is working up a fine stock of cycla- 

 mens and primulas, which are disposed 

 of through the medium of The Keview. 

 They are sold out completely every 

 time. The firm is extremely busy with 

 design work.
