but most of them are gone, and Sir 

 Watkin is past its prime. The outdoor- 

 grown daffodils are nearly ready.

The Market. 



The retail market has shown a pleas- 

 ing turn for the better, after a week 

 of dullness. All kinds of stock are mov- 

 ing well, with, as is to be expected, 

 bulbous stock leading in favor. Local 

 roses are putting in an appearance, with 

 the result that standing orders for ship- 

 ments from eastern points are, in many 

 cases, being canceled. Local Ophelia 

 roses are good in quality, as also are 

 Eichmond and Hoosier Beauty. Killar- 

 ney and White Killarney will need more 

 bright weather before they are up to 

 grade. 



Carnations are plentiful, with- the 

 quality both good and bad. The dyeing 

 of white carnations has helped to move 

 a considerable number of blooms, the 

 growers benefiting mainly. 



Various Notes. 



H. L. Olsson had a fine trade in sham- 

 rocks in 1-inch pots, shipping them to 

 points as far away as California. 



Peters Bros, have engaged a new fore- 

 man, E. Sinclair. Mr. Sinclair has been 

 in the employ of Adolph Donart, at 

 Coeur d'Alenc, Idaho, for about three 

 years. Before that he was with S. W. 

 Coggan, at Battle Creek, Mich. He 

 has also been with several of the lead- 

 ing Chicago growers. His experience 

 will make him a valuable maA in his new 

 position. 



Harry Saunders, formerly with 

 Brown Bros., of Vancouver, B. C, has 

 been engaged by Adolph Donart as 

 greenhouse foreman. 



The woods seem full of salesmen en- 

 deavoring to unload tlieir wares. Re- 

 cent visitors included W. D. Desmond, 

 traveling representative of the Poehl- 

 manaBros. Co., Chicago; Arthur Zirk- 

 man, who smiles and sells for the Rice 

 Co., Philadelphia; F. W. Troadup, who 

 is making his western bow for the A. L. 

 Randall Co., Chicago. L. B. H.
