The Market. 



Business continues unchanged. The 

 retailers report little trade outside of 

 funeral work. Stock has not been any 

 too plentiful and the quality is poor, 

 especially in roses. The direct cause 

 of this inferiority of stock is the eight 

 weeks of oppressive heat, during which 

 there was only one light rain. Last 

 week, however, it began to cool off a 

 bit and after a couple of hard rains 

 a noticeable improvement is to be seen 

 in all stock. Gladioli are about done 

 for. Carnations are beginning to come 

 in, but they are exceedingly short- 

 stemmed. A few good asters are to be 

 had and these find a ready sale. Hard- 

 ly any dahlias will be found on the 

 market this month, as most of them 

 were burned by the heat. 



^Various Notes. 



Miss McNamara, who has a flower 

 stand in one of the local drug stores, has 

 returned from her vacation and reports 

 a most enjoyable time. 



Lee Larroon, who recently took over 

 the store in the Fontenelle hotel, states 

 that he is well satisfied so far with the 

 volume of business done. 



Charles Ederer has his four new 

 houses, each 24x80 feet, completed and 

 planted to roses, which are coming 

 along nicely, considering that they 

 were planted late. 



Lewis Henderson has had an excep- 

 tionally heavy run of funeral work dur- 

 ing the last two weeks. He is at Lin- 

 coln this week attending the state fair 

 and looking over his exhibit of plants. 



Paul Floth 's asters w6re the envy of 

 nearly everyone who saw them. They 

 were sold as fast as they were cut. Mr. 

 Floth also is at the state fair this week 

 with a good-sized exhibit of palms, 

 ferns, etc. 



Hess & Swoboda have cut some ex- 

 cellent Beauties during the last six 

 weeks and at present they have a nice 

 crop of Ophelia coming on. While some 

 of the other roses do not look so well 

 as they might, they will improve with 

 cooler weather. Stokers will be given 

 a try-out on two of their boilers this 



Make the Garden More Beautiful 



They have a special style of construction which, while very strong, does away 

 with heavy shadow-casting supports. This makes every King especially sunny and 

 productive and enables you to give your garden an earlier start. 



Then this special construction, noted for its graceful sweeping lines, can be 



adapted to suit any style architecture or landscape plan. The King is in itself the 



beauty spot of the garden. 



Write for Bulletin No. 47- Send us a picture of your home. Tell us your own ideas, and 

 let our experts prepare a sketch and plan showing just how a King can add grace to your garden. 

 No obligation on your part of coarse.
