The Weekly Florists' Review. 



JULY G, 1S99. 



CHICAGO. 



The Market. 



There is but little, if any, change 

 from last week in market conditions. 

 Good shipping stock is still short in 

 supply and strong in demand, and the 

 other kind moves slowly as a rule 

 with an occasional clean up. Trade 

 has held up remarkably well for the 

 season of the year, though signs are 

 not entirely wanting that the mid- 

 summer dull season it at hand. 



The paeonies have been cleaned up 

 and there seems nothing equally 

 showy to take their place as a window 

 flower. Water lilies are seen in quan- 

 tity and move fairly well. 



The market was very well cleaned 

 up July 4th and some of the whole- 

 sale houses were busy till after noon 

 on shipping orders. 



Various Items. 



Mr. E. E. Pieser, of Kennicott Bros. 

 Co., is enjoying a week's vacation at 

 West Baden, Ind. 



Mr. W. J. Smyth and wife started 

 last Saturday on a two months' trip to 

 the Pacific coast. 



W. E. Lynch has taken the other 

 direction and is spending a few weeks 

 in Massachusetts. 



H. G. Berning, St. Louis: M. R. Ly- 

 ons, Babcock, Wis.; E. E. Boynton. 

 Sycamore, 111., and Hans Tobler, Tra- 

 verse City, Mich., were recent visitors. 



John Mangel started last Monday 

 evening on an extended European 

 trip. 



The ball game between the whole- 

 salers and the retailers was warm and 

 a trifle damp. Only two innings had 

 been played when a heavy fall of rain 

 put a stop to the proceedings. The 

 score then stood 11 to 1 in favor of 

 the wholesalers, and the rain failing 

 to let up the score has remained 

 thusly ever since. The leading fea- 

 tures of the game were the wiggle-run 

 of Joe Curran to first base and the 

 umpiring of Walter Kreitling. Walter 

 was in his element. He made some 

 startling decisions, among them rul- 

 ing that five fouls was "out," and 

 when one of the batters got a ball on 

 his finger instead of the bat he was 

 ruled "out." There was rather more 

 hilarity than good ball playing, 

 though the work of Joe Kenuicott 

 proved him a real ball player. 



The bowlers are working up their 

 muscle for the games at Milwaukee 

 next Saturday evening. Special rail- 

 road rates have been secured by Pres- 

 ident Hauswirth for the trip. 



Club Meeting. 



Another regular meeting of the 

 Florists' Club will be held at the club 

 room this Friday evening, July 7th. 

 to consider matters in connection with 

 the trip to Detroit and the summer 

 outings. All florists are invited to be 

 present whether members or not.
