FORT WAYNE, IND. 



The Market. 



Stock of all kinds continued plentiful 

 last week and there was practically no 

 change in the condition of the market. 

 The florists were kept busy with funeral 

 work and several tried out the special 

 day sales. They have worked success- 

 fully in most instances. 



Various Notes. 



The Flick Floral -Co. furnished the 

 decorations for an elaborate home wed- 

 ding last week. Business is good with 

 this firm and it has added a new delivery 

 car to its equipment. 



A novel floral piece was put out last 

 week by the Lanternier Florists. It was 

 ordered by the Pennsylvania R. R. Co. 

 for the funeral of their wire chief, 

 Harry Cowden. The piece consisted of 

 two telegraph poles made of an assort- 

 ment of flowers, one placed at the head 

 of the casket and one at the foot, and 

 .stretched from pole to pole over the 

 casket were telegraph wires made of 

 chenille. One of the wires was broken 

 and lay on the casket. 



Miss Heine, secretary for the New 

 Haven Floral Co., has returned to her 

 duties after an absence of several weeks 

 on account of sickness in the family. 



A campaign is now being carried on 

 energetically for the saving of Fort 

 Wayne's sliade trees, of wliich the city 

 has always been proud. Adolph Jaen- 

 iche, superintendent of parks, is at the 

 head of the movement. 



E. G. Hill, of Richmond, Ind., was a 

 visitor last week. Among other trade 

 visitors were Mr. Peterson, of G. Van 

 Bochovc & Bro., Kalamazoo, Mich.; E. 

 Petitt, of the 8efton Mfg. Co., Chicago;

How to Maintain Beautiful 

 Lawns at Minimum Expense 



Actual use by thousands of Ideal 

 Power Lawn Mower owners has 

 shown conclusively that this com- 

 bination power mower and power 

 roller keeps beautiful lawns in bet- 

 ter condition than was ever pos- 

 sible with hand mowers or horse- 

 drawn mowers. 



Not only does the Ideal permit bet- 

 ter care, but also effects a genuine 

 economy in up-keep. For one man 

 with an Ideal Power Mower can 

 cut from four to five acres of grass 

 per day with little effort and at 

 small cost. Then the fact that the 

 Ideal is also a power roller practi- 

 cally doubles its usefulness. 



It provides exactly what is needed 

 for the earlier spring rolling, and 

 keeps the sod in excellent condi- 

 tion the season through. 



Ideal Power Mowers are used in 

 caring for the grass on industrial 



groands, private estates, public 

 parks, cemeteries, golf courses, 

 college grounds, school grounds, 

 polo grounds, etc. Here are just a 

 few names from the thousands of 

 Ideal users: Oak Hill Country 

 Club, Rochester, N. Y.; Withunet 

 Golf Club, Kennebunk, Me.; Ma- 

 rion Golf Club, Marion, Mass.; Al- 

 legheny Country Club, Pittsburgh, 

 Pa.; Belvedere Golf & Country 

 Club, Belvedere, California. 



With riding trailer the Ideal makes 

 one of the most practical and eco- 

 nomical riding mowers possible to 

 procure. Extra cost of trailer is 

 very moderate. 



Special putting green cutting unit 

 can be provided for work on golf 



courses. 



Any of our dealers will gladly dem- 

 onstrate the Ideal for you. Special 

 illustrated catalog upon request.
