The Market. 



There was a lull in buBiness last week. 

 iSo far this season the summer demand 

 'has been above par and only the last 

 few days has there been a sluillp::**6tock 

 has been hard to procure, but this con- 

 dition is easing and prospects are 

 brighter. 



Boses have been in abundance and 

 are of fair quality, ranging from $2 to 

 ' $10 per hundred. Inferior asters are , 

 crowding the market, but good ones re- 

 main scarce. Short asters can be 

 bought at the buyer's price. Oladioli 

 are more plentiful and are of good qual- 

 ity. These are available at $4 to $8 per 

 hundred. 



Lilies of any and all varieties are ex- 

 ceedingly short and are hardly quoted at 

 all. Statice and baby's breath are 

 practically gone. 



A few fall offerings are appearing. 

 Dahlias, usually so numerous at this 

 time, have not been a success this sum- 

 raw and are only seen occasionally. A 

 limited number of short-stemmed carna- 

 tions are in the market. 



Garden flowers, including snapdrag- 

 ons, hydrangeas, zinnias, marigolds and 

 a few straggling d^hiniums, are to be 

 seen.

 several weeks' vacation, which was

 visit points in Kentucky before return- 

 ing home by way of Evansville.

A Glazing Puttf 

 of Real Value 



In all our experience and inyestigation 

 we had never found a preparation for 

 bulbing over the outside of a greeDhouse 

 that was quite satisfactory, until we ran 

 across PERBIANITB. This was about 

 four years ago . At thatlflb we set about 

 investigating the merits d^nUUMANITE 

 and proceeded to watch ti&e results of its 

 application to greenhousQflBfs. 



Last year we were enurely convinced 

 of its high.qualiti^^d durability, and ac- 

 cepted the western agency for the sale of 

 these goods. 



We applied PERMANITB to hundreds 

 of greenhouse roofs, over almost every 

 part of the United States. 



The results obtained were highly satis- 

 factory indeed. Glass roofs of all kinds, 

 both old and new, were made water-tight 

 and air-tight, saving thousands of plants 

 from being spoiled by water dripping on 

 them and saving many hundreds of tons of 

 coal by making the roofs proof against 

 the wind and storms of winter. 



We give PERMANITE our unqualified 

 endorsement and recommend it highly for 

 all kinds of glazing. 



We have a very large stock on hand 

 in our warehouse and can ship imme- 

 diately.
