The Market. 



Busiuoss was hIow last week with the 

 exception of (Saturday, which suggested 

 the busy days soon to come. Stock has 

 moved slowly and day after day really 

 good stock has had to be dumped. The 

 aster season this year is late, and now 

 the dahlias are starting to pile in on 

 top of them. Neither asters nor dahlias 

 have been moving to any great extent. 

 Zinnias, calendulas, bachelor's buttons, 

 ilouble sunflowers, strawflowers and 

 baby 's breath continue to come in 

 steadily. Carnations have made their 

 debut for the coming season, arriving 

 in good quality, but short in stem. Even 

 rhey have not cleaned up entirely. Tlie 

 weather during the last few days has 

 been extremely hot and will probably 

 flood the market to a greater exlent 

 than heretofore.

A Glazing Putty 

 of Real Value 



In all our experience and investigation 

 we had never found a preparation for 

 bulbing over the outside of a greenhouse 

 that was quite satisfactory, until we ran 

 across PERMANITE. This was about 

 four years ago. At that time we set about 

 investigating the merits of PERBfANITE 

 and proceeded to watch the results of its 

 application to greenhouse roofs. 



Last year we were entirely convinced 

 of its- high quality and durability, and ac- 

 cepted the western agency for the sale of 

 these goods. 



We applied PERMANITE 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.
