IiIIIiWAUKEE. 



The Market. 



Last week Milwaukee was visited by 

 21 rain storm that caused considerable 

 •delay to delivery service. Quite a few 

 shipments made Thursday night did not 

 reach destinations on -time. There was 

 an exceptionally high wind, but no dam- 

 age was done to glass, as far as I know. 

 Despite the rainy days, business last 

 week was good, shipping orders mak- 

 ing up the bulk of the trade. 



There still is a good supply of roses, 

 and these are in first-class shape and 

 <5lear daily at fair prices. Carnations 

 now are in sufficient quantity to fill or- 

 ders with some degree of satisfaction, 

 although the supply still is short of the 

 ■demand. The quality of this stock is 

 improving right along and purchasers 

 have their money's worth at this time. 

 ■Chrysanthemums are coming in quite 

 teavily and are cutting a figure in the 

 market. All grades are to be had and 

 prices range from $1.50 to $4 per dozen. 

 The quality is exceptionally good this 

 year and the stock is poving readily. 

 Pompons are finding a ready sale. Wis- 

 •consin-grown violets are arriving stead- 

 ily, but only in small quantities as yet. 

 They are picked up daily as soon as 

 they reach the market and are bring- 

 ing good prices for this time of year. 



The supply of lilies is limited and no 

 trouble is experienced in disposing of 

 the cut to good advantage. Valley, of 

 <sourse, is scarce, and is bringing $6 per 

 hundred for first-quality stock, but at 

 that the quality is none too good. 

 Orchids are fairly plentiful and sell 

 well at about $6 per dozen. If present 

 conditions are to be taken as a crite- 

 rion, the Christmas holiday business 

 should be satisfactory this year. 



Vaxious Notes. 



During the storm of October 20 the 

 delivery automobile owned by W. Maas 

 •& Co. was run into by a pedestrian. 

 This is rather an unusual condition, the 

 tables usually being vice versa. The 

 man was knocked down by the machine 

 and was taken to the Emergency hos- 

 pital. He was not injured, however, 

 and stated that he was thinking of 

 nothing but the rain, and did not see 

 the automobile. 



W. Lubliner has purchased a new de- 

 livery car. It has a panel top and 

 numerous small windows. H. J. S. 



Holland, Mich. — Henry Ebelink has 

 reopened his store after a discontinu- 

 ance of business during the summer and 

 ■early fall.
