MILWAUKEE. 



The Market. 



The weather last week was cold and 

 helped market conditions to some ex- 

 tent. The supply of chrysanthemums 

 has not decreased to any extent, but 

 the flowers have cleaned up better and 

 there is a smaller surplus. Bunch mums 

 still are coming strongly and selling 

 well. There is an especially big de- 

 mand for yellow, but the supply is suffi- 

 ciently large to take care of all or- 

 ders. Chadwick and Bonnaffon mums 

 are in fine shape and move well. These 

 two varieties will be in fine shape for 

 Thanksgiving and there possibly will 

 be other varieties in the market, al- 

 though it seems as though all but Chad- 

 wick and Bonnaffon will be through by 

 that time. 



Koses are in good supply and sell 

 well; the cut is not so large as it has 

 been. The demand is fairly strong and 

 this stock is moved readily at fair 

 prices. Russell and Ophelia are having 

 the greatest call, but the supply about 

 equals the demand. Carnations are 

 plentiful. The stock is in good shape, 

 but owing to the big mum supply it is 

 not selling any too well and prices have 

 suffered to some extent. 



There is a good supply of fine or- 

 chids and the cut is moving readily. 

 Lilies are plentiful but move slowly. 

 Valley is scarce and holds firm at $6. 

 Violets, Wisconsin-grown, are in good 

 supply and the quality is satisfactory. 

 They sell well and bring fair returns 

 for this time of the year. 



Various Notes. 



C. C. Pollworth, who has been ill 

 with stomach trouble for about a week, 

 has fully recovered and, accompanied 

 by Mrs. Pollworth, has gone to Powell, 

 Wis., where they will hunt for a short 

 time. Mr. Pollworth goes after game 

 each year and always brings back a 

 trophy as a testimonial to his marks- 

 manship. 



J. McGregor, who suffered numerous 

 injuries some time ago when he was 

 thrown from his rig, is again able to 

 be about and is receiving congratula- 

 tions from his many friends on his 

 rapid recovery. He has resumed his 

 duties with the Forest Home Cemetery 

 Association, where he has been em- 

 ployed for many years. 



There has been some excitement at 

 the establishment of the C. C. Poll- 

 worth Co., lately, and two members of 

 the force are wearing happy smiles. 

 These two are Charles Gutbrod, who 

 was presented with a baby girl Novem- 

 ber 33, and Frank Bojar, who became 

 father of a bouncing boy November 9. 



J. J. Karins, with Henry A. Dreer, 

 Inc., visited the local trade Friday, No- 

 vember 17. H. J. S. 



Cleveland, O. — The Ohio Greenhouse 

 Co. has purchased ten acres of land on 

 the Detroit road, near Rocky river, as 

 a site for a greenhouse range.
