An Invitation 



To 



Chicago Geranium Growers 



and Others Visiting: Chicago this Summer 



Come to my Greenhouses and inspect the stock of a Geranium to displace Nutt 



WALL'S WINNER 



This Geranium appeared five years ago among a batch of my own propagation, and from the day of its discovery has 



stood out above every other sort on the place. We have worked up a large stock— never sold any in spite of many 



requests for it. 



COIX>R— Bright, glowins red. between S. A. Nutt and American Beauty; just a little lichtcr than the rich red of Hoosier Beauty rose- 



GROWTH— Easy to root. Branches without pinching. Makes short, compact plant Early, free bloomer; when shifted to 4-inch pots 

 at Easter will be in full bloom two weeks before Decoration Day. Large trusses carried well above the clear green, heavily serrated foliage. 

 Stands sun and drought. 



I am diaoardlnc Nutt and belicT* otliar crowani wUI do th« •ame when ttacy have WA1X.'8 WINNER. 



All interested parties are invited to call and examine the stock plants, cuttings and 2^-inch plants.

The Market. 



A week of extremely hot weather has 

 taken the life out of the flower market 

 as far as prices are concerned. Business 

 is good. Many flowers are being moved 

 rapidly, but the demand in no way 

 equals the supply, which is tiemendous. 



We have 2-cent roses again. But they 

 help no one. Even the ultimate con- 

 sumer does not get much for his money 

 when lie buys them. The better grades 

 of roses bring fair prices. Sweet peas 

 of quality hold up well. 



Carnations have no fixed price. One 

 can fill his needs by pacing from 50 

 cents to $2 per hundred. ^ These prices 

 have allowed^^street venders to venture 

 back into business. 



Home-grown peonies are in. They are 

 of good quality and plentiful, but' sell 

 too cheaply; $1 to $5 jicr hundred will 

 buy the best. 



The few graduation exercises which 

 took place last week did not consume 

 many flowers. Fuueral work was heavy 

 and some good-sized orders were filled. 



Various Notes. 



Gust. Kusch and William Zimmermann 

 were in Appleton last week attending 

 the Eagles' convention. Mr. Rusch mo- 

 tored there, making the ninety miles 

 each way in about three and one-half 

 hours. 



The Wisconsin State Florists' Asso-
