MILWAUKEE. 



Stork has shortened up considerably 

 the past week and the demand was brisk, 

 espet:ially on roses. Carnations, with ex- 

 ception of white, were about equal to de- 

 mand. Romans are coming in in fair 

 quantities, but demand is light. Violets 

 are about equal to demand. Some Har- 

 risii wore shipped in the past week, but 

 being badly bruised in transit did not 

 bring the prices they should bring other- 

 wise. Callas are not overplentiful, and 

 there is a good demand for them. 



The Chicago Florists' Club bowlers 

 came up Saturday night and took the 

 games and the scores home with them. 

 After the games all went to the Expo- 

 sition arrayed in costumes to represent a 

 German band. The annual brewers' mask 

 ball was in session there and it is need- 

 less to say all had a good time. It's 

 rather quiet in town today. Incog.
