The Florists' Review 



November 14, 1912. 



MILWAUKEE, WIS. 



The Market. 



Between weddings, coming-out par- 

 ties and funeral work, business last 

 week kept pace with the ever-increasing 

 supply of mums, roses, carnations, etc. 

 The daily receipts in most lines have 

 increased considerably with the mild 

 weather which followed the first killing 

 frost, November 1. Everything seems 

 to sell of late. Business for the new 

 season has been fine so far, and we 

 trust will continue so. 



Various Notes. 



One of the most discussed topics of 

 late has been the St. Paul flower show. 

 N. Zweifel, C. C. PoUworth Co. and 

 Holton & Hunkel Co. exhibited some 

 choice stock there and, from reports, 

 were well rewarded. Holton & Hunkel 

 Co. made a fine rose showing, while 

 the Pollworth Co. came in first on 

 mums. No reports have as yet been 

 received as to the carnations exhibited 

 by N. Zweifel. 



Fred Holton went to St. Paul No- 

 vember 8, to remain through the show. 



Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Pollworth left 

 St. Paul Sunday night, November 10, to 

 spend the week at Powell, Wis., on 

 their annual hunting trip. 



W. Currie, of the Currie Bros. Co., 

 and J. Livingston, gardener at the 

 Vogel estate, attended the flower show 

 at Lake Geneva, Wis., November 8 

 and 9, and say that it was fine. 



At the store of the Edlefsen-Leidiger 

 Co. a busy week is reported, and in 

 the history of that firm they never ex- 

 perienced better business and collec- 

 tions so near presidental election time. 



Mr. Farquhar, president-elect of the 

 S. A. F., spent Thursday, November 7, 

 in our city as guest of Wm. Currie. 

 After visiting places of interest he ex- 

 pressed himself as highly pleased with 

 the Cream City. 



Roy Currie attended the footbalJ 

 game at Madison, Wis., last week. 



Loeflaer & Behnke, of Watertowu, 

 Wis., are shipping some fine double 

 violets to Holton & Hunkel Co. 



Louis Holly, of late with the Thomp- 

 son Carnation Co., Joliet, HI., is the 

 new foreman in charge of the N. Zwei 

 fel carnation range. 



While a good manj^ growers discarded 

 Victory for Beacon carnations, one 

 would not think the former a has-been 

 at the houses of the Heitman-Oestrei- 

 cher Co. With good, long stems and 

 good substance, Victory is still in the 

 race. 



Visitors for the week: Peter Ober 

 tin, Kenosha; J. H. Criddle, Stoughtoii. 

 and J. J. Kariiis, representing Henrv A. 

 Dreer, Philadelphia. • E. 0.
