The Market. 



Market conditions are slightly im- 

 proved. The demand seems to be better, 

 but the supply smaller. Asters and gla- 

 dioli, which have been the main stock, 

 are now becoming scarce; in fact, all the 

 gladioli on the market are shipped in. 

 Only a few growers have good asters, 

 which are finding a ready sale. Dahlias 

 are a failure again this year; they carry 

 much foliage, but the flowers are small 

 and the stems are short. There have 

 been a large number of funerals during 

 the last week and stock has been 

 cleaned up each day. Roses are getting 

 better each day and good ones are to be 

 had at from $10 to $14 per hundred. 

 Carnations never looked better and are 

 available at $2 and $3 per hundred. On 

 account of the short stems and the 

 abundance of other flowers, they have 

 not been used except for design work. 

 Cattleyas are in large supply and of 

 the finest quality. These are selling at 

 $2 each wholesale. Some California 

 mums are being shipped in, but, on the 

 whole, are not proving satisfactory. 

 Everyone will welcome the home-grown 

 mums. It will be about two weeks be- 

 fore Smith's Advance and Golden Glow 

 will reach the local market. 



Various Notes. 



A severe rain and hail storm struck 

 the southern section of Omaha on the 

 night of September 19, doing consider- 

 able damage. Frank Citta, on Center 

 street, suffered a loss of from 1,200 to 

 1,500 panes of glass. The establish- 

 ments of Faulkner Bros., William Skop 

 and Petersen Bros, were also damaged. 



Wm. Foster, formerly of Colorado 

 Springs, Colo., has taken active charge 

 of the greenhouses of J. F. Wilcox & 

 Sons. Michael Stoudt has resigned. 



The Omaha and Council Bluffs Flo- 

 rists' Club met September 22 to discuss 

 the possibilities of a mum show. 



September 21 saw the first floral pa- 

 rade in Omaha since 1916. There were 

 forty-two beautifully decorated motor 

 vehicles in the parade, and ten bands, 

 including the Omaha bagpipe band and 

 the famous Tangier Temple band. Mrs. 

 L. R. Spikings, of Chicago, who has di- 

 rected floral parades at Atlantic City 

 and Chicago, had complete charge of the 

 decorations. T. E. E.

"There is one born every minute'' 



— Said Mr. Barnutn 



He may have been right, but — WE 

 DON'T WORK ON THAT THEORY. We 

 believe that the florists as a rule know the 

 difference between good and inferior ma- 

 terials. That is why you never find an 

 inferior product bearing the GARLAND 

 brand. 



Buy products of Proven Quality only. 

 Order from us and play safe.
