MTLWAUEEE, WIS. 



The Market. 



Busiuess has shown some improve 

 ment during the last week. The de 

 mand is more brisk than it has been 

 since Christmas. Stock in general, how- 

 ever, is quite scarce. 



Roses are scarce; in fact, the supply 

 is not nearly sufficient to take care of 

 the demand. The shortage is felt espe 

 daily in the shorter grades of stock. 

 The quality is fine. Carnations have 

 shrunk from an extremely large supply 

 to one which is hardly adequate for all 

 the orders. The percentage of splits is 

 small, and the average quality is ex- 

 cellent. Prices have advanced as the 

 supply has decreased. 



Valley is good, but sales are rather 

 slow on this stock, Violets are still in 

 good supply and the quality is excellent. 

 The demand seems to be lighter than 

 usual this year. Spring stock, such as 

 freesias, narcissi and daisies, is coming 

 in. 



Various Notes. 



Currie Bros. Co. has finished moving 

 the seed department and offices to the 

 new location, on East Water street. 

 The flower store remains at 108 Wiscon- 

 sin street. Last week this firm had in 

 the window a display of roses, one of 

 each variety, with a card attached bear- 

 ing the name of the variety. Each flower 

 was in an individual vase. The space 

 before the window was continually 

 crowded with spectators. 



Wm. Lubliner, 123 Grand avenue, has 

 been in Chicago for over a week. He 

 is staying with relatives, combining 

 business and pleasure. 



Clarke Adams, of Racine, Wis., was 

 in Milwaukee, Wednesday, January 20, 

 when he was granted a decree of di- 

 vorce. 



The Racine Floral Co., Racine, Wis., 

 had a largo number of orders for the 

 funeral of Mrs. Bertha M. Frank. Mrs. 

 Miller, of the above firm, accompanied 

 these orders to Milwaukee, giving their 

 delivery her personal attention. 



H. .1. S. 



Oak Park, HL — Adolph Rojahn has 

 bought back from Mr. Sterberl the 

 greenhouses and grounds at the corner 

 of Troost avenue and Yuba street. The 

 latter purchased them from him about 

 two years ago.
