The Weekly Florists^ Review^ 



March 0, 1911. 



MILWAUKEE. 



The Market. 



With bright weather prevailing the 

 greater part of last week, receipts were 

 greatly increased. Stilly the demand 

 kept about even pace with the supply, 

 leaving little or no stock on hand. 



Club Meeting. 



Although there were only fourteen 

 members present at the club meeting, 

 March 2, it was by no means a dull one. 

 President H. V. Hunkel appointed the 

 following executive committee for the 

 1911 flower show: J. G. Heitman, C. 

 Dallwig, A, T. Kellner, Nic Zweifel, Art 

 Leidiger, C. C. Pollworth and Wm. 

 Zimmermann. Mr. Hunkel also is a 

 member of this committee. To judge 

 from little conversations overheard, the 

 show this year is to cover many more 

 square feet than at any previous time. 



C. C. Pollworth and C. Dallwig were 

 appointed a committee to draft suitable 

 resolutions protesting against the pas- 

 sage of a bill now pending at Madison, 

 which would compel all concerns located 

 within two miles of the city limits to 

 use smoke consumers. This would in- 

 clude most of the local growers, and 

 aside from" its being a great expense 

 and trouble, it would be impossible to 

 install such a system where no steam is 

 used. 



The entertainment committee an- 

 nounced the coming bowling match be- 

 tween the Chicago and Milwaukee boys, 

 which will take place March 19 at 

 Eleventh and Prairie streets. 



The club's treasury was again en- 

 riched somewhat when Treasurer Heit- 

 man, of the 1910 flower show, handed in 

 his flnal report, which was accepted 

 with words of thanks and praise for the 

 whole committee. 



Various Notes. 



The Florists' Bowling League will roll 

 its return match game with the Odah- 

 nas at Steinke's alleys, Eleventh and 

 Prairie streets, during the afternoon of 

 March 12. 



The Harrisii plants at the C. C. Poll- 

 worth Co. 's greenhouses are in fine 

 shape, giving promise of a banner 

 harvest. 



Among numerous plants for Easter, 

 the Holton & Hunkel Co. has a whole 

 house devoted to spiraea plants, which 

 will hit it just right. 



Already many retailers are getting 

 inquiries for bids for the spring open- 

 ings of local department stores, which 

 take place in the near future. J^ O. 



SOUTHINGTON, CONN. 



The growers here are all confident 

 that Easter this year will be a record- 

 breaker. 



Otto Glueck, who has leased Nelson 

 Bavier's range of glass, is sending 

 down some handsome sweet peas to 

 Alfred Ostermann, in New Haven, who 

 is also handling his cut of carnations 

 and bulb stock. One of Mr. Glueck 's 

 specialties is white marguerite daisies. 



Olson & Lunden report a good season. 



William Fischer has just completed 

 an addition to his range. Carnations 

 are Mr. Fischer's main crop. 



The past week of bright, sunny 

 weather has been welcomed by all. The 

 way the temperature runs up at mid- 

 day makes us realize that spring is 

 surely close by. B.
