The Market. 



Summer seems to be here, and busi- 

 'less is light, but as the supply of the 

 different varieties of stock is also light, 

 ' liere is little or no surplus in the mar- 

 ket. Carnations are becoming soft and 

 'he quantity is decreasing daily. Eoses 

 •■•s yet are in good condition, but the 

 -upply is small. Peonies are out of the 

 market entirely, and while the crop of 

 ^weet peas will last another week or so 

 there has been an appreciable decrease 

 'U the daily cuts. 



There are plenty of lilies and they 

 "ave little sale. Valley is short, but the 

 demand is so small that the stortage is 

 iardly felt. The supply of orchids is 

 •ibout equal to the demand and the stock 

 js in good shape. 



The plant business has fallen off con-

 ready for vacations and a small portion

 taking care of the business there is. 



Helton & Hunker s Picnic. 



Sunday, July 15, the Holton & Hun- 

 kcl Co. held its annual outing for the 

 employees at Ehler's grove, Brown 

 Deer, Wis. The day was ideal for the 

 picnic and there were about 200 who 



made the most of the opportunity. A 

 number of the trade visited the grove 

 and took part in the various games. 

 All the employees, with th ir families, 

 were taken to the grove in the firm's 

 auto trucks and enjoyed the ride as 

 much as anything. 



There were music and eats galore, and 

 it was a gala day for everyone who at- 

 tended. There was something doing all 

 the time, with keen competition in the 

 different events. Prizes were offered to 

 the winners of games. The ball game
