GET WISE 



TO THE FACT 



You Will Save Coal 



by iustalling The Martin Rocking^ Grrate. Costs a little more 



than ordinary grates, but the coal burns— it doesn't go into the 



ashpit. 



We refer to Peter Reinberg, Enul Buettner. Bas8ett& Washburn, Wietor Bros., 

 Adam Zender. Sinner Bros.. Albert Dickinson Seed Co., and many others. 

 They will tell you to order the Martin Roolclns: Grate for the new boilers 

 to be put in this season. Write for catalogue and prices.

chosen to shut down their mines rather 

 than throw unsold coal on the smnmer 

 market. Whether or not they wiU ad- 

 here to this policy after cold weather 

 assures some sort of a market for free 

 coal is a matter that no man can de- 

 termine, but the greenhouse trade is 

 not contracting for its full needs this 

 season. ., 



FORT WAYNE, IND. 



The Market. 



Last week there was plenty of rain, 

 with a hot wave the latter part of the 

 week. The Country Club social aflEairs 

 called for a good many outdoor flow- 

 ers for table and ballroom decorations 

 during the northern Indiana tennis 

 tournament. Large quantities of gladi- 

 oli were used, as well as asters, hy- 

 drangeas and dahlias, while Shasta 

 daisies, hardy roses and the smaller 

 perennials made charming table decora- 

 tions. Koses are meeting with a good 

 demand and the quality is splendid for 

 summer roses. There are good quanti- 

 ties of annuals and perennials on the 

 market, but the demand is decidedly 

 limited. 



July trade compared favorably with 

 the volume of business in previous 

 years. This is probably partly due to 

 the fact that the cool weather has kept 

 the majority of persons in the city, 

 who would otherwise during the hot 

 weather have thinned out considerably. 

 Carnations are arriving in small quan- 

 tities from field-grown stock. 



Variotis Notes. 



At the recent Greven-Gilmartin wed- 

 ding the Flick Floral Co. carried out 

 the decoration, which was elaborate. 

 This firm has purchased a handsome 

 new 7-pa8senger 1916 Auburn touring 

 car and has also several delivery cars 



in view. ^ "" *•
