C Some men spend their hard earned cash and have nothing to show for it. 

 Others spend it and have a lot to show, but nothing that amounts to much. 

 Then there are the kind that spend it and have something worth while to 

 show for it. 



C What do you want when you spend, the most for your money or the best 



your money can buy? The answer is simple enough. You want the best. 



Quality, not Quantity, is true economy. 

 C Now, that is just where we come in. We buy Quality and that is what we 



sell— absolute quality. No French Pastry to look nice and cover up thft 



defects, but just plain, oldfashioned Quality. 



C That is why a man who has once bought from DIETSCH always buys from 

 DIETSCH. He has learned that Quality (the "all wool and a yard wide" 

 kind) pays and there is no chance for anything but that in DIETSCH 

 material. 



<1L Of course if you have built the DIETSCH way you know all about it. This 

 advertisement is written for the other fellows, who either spend and have 

 nothing to show or get a lot of stuff that amounts to nothing.

Tbe Market. 



Trade has been quiet during the last 

 two weeks, with stock suffering from 

 the extreme heat and drought. Boses 

 are good, but they develop rapidly and 

 are hard to keep from one day to the 

 next without opening. Beauties still 

 are good, considering everything, and 

 the demand for them is fairly strong. 

 Carnations will be more or less missed 

 for a few weeks. Most of the plants 

 have been thrown out and the ones that 

 remain produce blooms of such poor 

 quality that it does not pay to try to 

 bring them in. Sweet peas are burned, 

 as well as nearly all other outdoor 

 stock. Gladioli are plentiful. Where 

 they have been watered sufficiently the 

 quality is good, but a certain quantity 

 of poor blooms is coming in. Lilies are 

 quite plentiful and the demand for 

 them has been good in funeral work. 

 They really are a standby for such 

 work. There still are a few calls for 

 porch boxes and the number of boxes 

 used this season is surprising. It now 

 is a hard job to find enough good stock 

 to fill the boxes. 



Various Notes. 



Sherman Stephens is adding another 

 greenhouse to his range and reports 

 prosperous times. 



Joseph Martin, out on East Main 

 street, is adding an extension of eighty 

 feet to one house. He reports that 

 everything outdoors is burning out his 

 way, as there has been no rain since 

 early in June; that is, to amount to 

 anything. As he is without water- 

 works, the drought makes things hard 

 for him. 



Ralph Knight says everything is 

 cleaned out of his houses and that it 

 will be some time before he will be 

 cutting stock again. 



C. A. Both reports business as being 

 quiet, with just a little funeral work 

 now and then. 



The Livingston Seed Co. has a num- 

 ber of its force on vacations and at 

 times orders bunched so that it was a 

 case of working overtime for the ones 

 on deck.
