Charles A. Hunt, who suflfered a 

 puncture of the right eyeball three 

 weeks ago, is now able to be about his 

 business. The eye. was injured by the 

 rebound of a brass screw, which pene- 

 trated deeply into the ball. The doc- 

 tors entertain little hope of preserving 



its sight. „.,,,« 



Frank Oechslin and wife left July 10 

 for California. They will visit both 

 expositions, attend the S. A. F. con- 

 vention and visit points of interest on 

 the Pacific coast. 



N. J. Wietor says he believes surplus 

 field-grown carnation plants will be 

 good property this season, so many 

 growers having lost more or less of 

 their, etock through the vicissitudes of 

 the weather.

'- - C. J. Michelsen, of the E. C. Amling 

 Co., comments on the popularity of 

 Milady as a summer rose. No red 

 flower ever will be in large demand 

 during the summer months, the psychol-

 Milady sells far better than Bichmond. 



Felix Eeichling reports that his 

 brother, Emil, has decided to join the 

 S. A. F. convention party, as replant- 

 ing will be out of the way by that 

 time. Benching the carnations is pro- 

 gressing rapidly, the season having 

 been unusually favorable and the plants 

 being in the pink of condition. 



By way of a summer outing, David 

 Hammer, 2014 West Division street, 

 will go to New York city August 15 

 for a two weeks' visit with his sister. 



Erne & Klingel comment on the great- 

 ly increased use of summer flowers. 

 The retailers are making some fine ef- 

 fects with them. Larkspur and del- 

 phinium, because of their color, are 

 in special request. 



Arthur J. O'Keefe, who has charge 

 of H. D. Sheldon's cut flower depart- 

 ment, 912 West Madison street, has 

 the sympathy of his friends on the 

 market in the loss of his mother, Mrs. 

 Jane O'Keefe, who died July 11. The 

 funeral was at St. Patrick 's ' church I
