EVANSVILIiE, IND. 



The Market. 



Last week was one of the greatest 

 weeks the florists ever had for funeral 

 work. There were funerals every day 

 and on one day there were seventeen of 

 them, and every florist had plenty to 

 do. There was not nearly enough stock 

 here, and Chicago was called on largely. 

 The weather was warmer than usual for 

 February, but this week we are having 

 winter again. 



St. Valentine's day is getting to be 

 a big day and cut flowers and plants 

 had a ready sale. The warm weather 

 gave the rose and carnation crops a 

 boost, but this cold spell will cut down 

 the supply again. 



Various Notes. 



Ben Kramer was kept busy all the 

 week and turned out a lot of work. He 

 bought largely from Chicago. 



Karl Zeidler had work for nearly all 

 of the funerals and his bill for flowers 

 from Chicago was over $100. He says 

 that on St. Valentine 's day he sent out 

 a great many plants and cut flowers. 

 The plants most in demand were cycla- 

 mens, hyacinths, tulips and narcissi. 

 Even geraniums in flower were in de- 

 mand. 



J. C. Elsperman enjoyed a big week 

 and had about all he could do. 



Louis Fritsch had his share of the 

 work. His carnations are fine, some of 

 them measuring four inches across. He 

 had some of the finest cyclamens ever 

 grown here. 



Julius Niednagel & Sons had an im- 

 mense week. They cut lots of carna- 

 tions and white roses, but are off crop 

 with Killarney. 



The Wm. Blackman Floral Co. al- 

 ways has a nice, showy window, but it 

 is especially attractive at present. 

 Bulbous plants are used mostly at pres- 

 ent. Miss Mexal, the saleslady, attends 

 to the decorating. This firm was un- 

 usually busy last week. Though they 

 are cutting heavily of roses and carna- 

 tions, they do not have enough. 



Nellie Goodge has a fine line of plants 

 coming on for her spring trade. 



Rbyston & Fenton are still short of 

 roses. E. L. F. 



Atlanta, Oa.— The Atlanta Floral Co., 

 in its advertising in the local news- 

 papers, has designated Saturday of each 

 week as carnation day at its store and 

 has created an immense week-end de- 

 mand for the flower.
