The Market. 



The market had good business last 

 week. Stock can now be had at a rea- 

 sonable figure and, in general, moves 

 well. This can be attributed to much 

 sunshine and general clear weather. 



Boses are arriving in larger shipments 

 and in better condition than at any 

 other time this year, and they move 

 well. Premier is the best seller and most 

 popular and brings more than Columbia, 

 Ophelia and Madame Butterfly. Premier 

 is now selling at from $10 to $30 per 

 hundred, while the other named vari- 

 eties can be had for $8 per hundred for 

 shorts and $25 per hundred for longs. 

 Carnations are now in their prime and 

 about the only flowers that are border- 

 ing on a slight oversupply. Sweet peas 

 have taken the toboggan as to prices and 

 the best now can be had for $1.50 and $2 

 per hundred. 



Daffodils and freesias are moving as 

 fast as they arrive, because of their 

 popular price and good quality. Hya- 

 cinths and tulips also find a good mar- 

 ket, and the same can be said for lilies. 

 Some good greenhouse smilax is arriving 

 and is moving out quickly. 



Vaxious Notes. 



The trade regrets to hear of the death 

 of G. E. Critchell's brother, William 

 Critchell, of the Hyde Park Lumber Co., 

 of this city. He was ill for some time. 



A new red carnation, Radium, grown 

 by a local grower, is attracting much 

 attention, because of its stability and 

 good producing features. 



Fred Lautenschlager, of Kroeschell 

 Bros. Co., Chicago, and also secretary 

 of the Chicago Florists' Club, paid the 

 trade a visit last week. 



H. W. Shcppard 'a window display last 

 week was splendid. 



Julius Baer reports that he had a good 

 week for decorations and weddings, also 

 that plant sales have taken a step up- 

 ward. 



In the absence of Gustavo Mickley 

 from his shop, Charles Lantry is seen 

 frequently in the market and moving 

 pretty fast. Mr. Mickley is spending 

 his time on his place in Wauchula, Fla., 

 to regain his health. 



C. J. Jones, of the Walnut Hill Floral 

 Bazaar, reports good business in funeral 

 work. The market was surprised last 

 week by a new Reo truck bearing the 

 name of "C. J. Jones." 



Visitors last week were: Mr. and Mrs. 

 Fred H. Lemon, of Richmond, Ind., and 

 George Molin, of the E. C. Amling Co., 

 Chicago. G. H. K. 



St. Petersburg, Fla.— John R. Gee has 

 retired from business.
