 ing the year in which the award is made. 

 Numerous plants are introduced into the 

 American trade feach year which are 

 worthy of the award of this medal. The 

 St. Louis Florists' Club and the directors

 sirous of having a good competition for 

 this medal. Any information regarding 

 this award will be gladly furnished by 

 Prof. Wm. Trelease, Missouri Botanical 

 Garden, St. Louis, Mo. 



Frank M. Ellis has moved his resi- 

 dence from South St. Louis to the west- 

 em part of the city. 



Charles Kuehn has been receiving fine 

 shipments of high grade carnations the 

 past week. He! also had a big week in 

 supply orders. The wire department is 

 busy with shipping orders. 



Frank Ellis is handling some of the 

 best sweet peas that come to this mar- 

 ket, which find a ready sale for the 

 fancy. 



Greorgc Angermueller and Henry Bern- 

 ing are receiving a big lot of choice 

 roses and carnations the past week, too 

 many for the demand. 



St. Louis Palm Co., on Olive street, 

 is making a fine and attractive show in 

 the window. 



The Busch funeral this week made

The Market 



The market is in exactly the same 

 condition as a week ago, thete being a 

 very slight improvement as usual on 

 Saturday. There is an abundance of 

 everything, low prices, good quality, and 

 a stolid, resigned, patient acceptance of 

 the unexpected and apparently inevit- 

 able, by the wholesale trade. 



It is the retailers' and the street mer- 

 chants' opportunity. Carnations and 

 roses are sacrificed at times beyond all 

 reason, but it is sacrifice or the recep- 

 tive barrel. Peonies are arriving, fine 

 stock, and before the week is over they 

 will be eVerjrwhere. 



Variou* Notes. 



At the club June 12, peony night will 

 bring the spring series of exhibitions to 

 a splendid close. Strawberries will also 

 be displayed on ladies' night and their 

 merits to certificates voted on by the 

 entire assembly. Any unique exhibit 



will be welcome. Write John Young, 

 the secretary, for particulars and send 

 finy flowers you wish to represent you 

 in his care. 



Tickets for the club outing can now 

 be had from President Traendly and it 

 is absolutely necessary to know as soon 

 as possible how many can be present. 

 Next week the program of sports and 

 particulars will be issued. The place is 

 Glenwood, the boat the Isabel, and the 

 date June 28. 



Auctions will continue another month 

 at least. They are well attended and 

 prices lately have been quite satisfac- 

 tory. 



The convention at Washington is a 

 topic for discussion these days. It is 

 liard to find anyone who does not intend 

 to go. The bowlers are requested to 

 meet at Thum's alleys on Broadway for 

 practice on Friday evenings until fur- 

 ther notice. All who desire to compete 

 for places on the team are expected to 

 be present at 8 o'clock. 



The sympathy of his many friends in 

 the trade is extended Peter Duff", of 

 Orange, N. J., in the loss of his little 

 son from diphtheria. 



Louis Dupuy goes to Holland, France, 

 Belgium and England for his annual trip 

 this week. His new erica is very inter- 

 esting. He considers the dwarf Rambler 

 a grand pot plant and has a fine lot of 

 them and the blue hydrangea left for 

 Decoration day. 



Mr. Pankok, of Pankok & Schumacher, 

 has been recuperating a couple of weeks 

 in the country. Too much Easter trade. 

 Importations from Europe of acacias had 

 just arrived and were promising stuff for 

 next Easter.
