and Kaiserin to Kuehn's, which sell 

 well. 



Walter Ketzer, formerly of Chicago, 

 and late of Seattle, is in town visiting 

 his mother. Mr. Eetzer was a student 

 at Shaw 's Garden. 



J. M. Page, who was formerly at 

 Shaw's Garden, is back from San Fran- 

 cisco. He was there during the shake- 

 up. Mr. Page is undecided as to his 

 return to 'Frisco. 



State Vice-president F. H. Mein- 

 hardt, of the S. A. F., will be on hand 

 at the club meeting with blanks for 

 membership. Any one wishing to join 

 should see him. 



W. J. Pilcher, of Kirkwood, was in 

 town on Saturday celebrating his thirty- 

 sixth birthday with the boys in the 

 wholesale district. Smoking good cigars 

 was in order. 



There is a movement on foot whereby 

 all the four wholesale houses will close 

 at 5 p. m. during July and August, 

 which would be much enjoyed by the em- 

 ployees. 



A foot race to be run at the club's 

 annual outing this month, has been ar- 

 ranged for the young lightweights and 

 six footers. In this class will be found 

 W. C. Smith, George Angermueller, 

 George Frow, Rude Windt, Eddie Ger- 

 lach, Young Jablonsky, Walter Sanders 

 and Will Ossic. 



Next Thursday afternoon, July 12, 

 the Florists' Club meeting will take 

 place at the home of President Ammann, 

 in Edwardsville, 111, The members are 

 requested to meet at bridge entrance, 

 Third and Washington avenue, at 12:30, 

 and take a car marked Alton, Edwards- 

 ville and Granite City connections. A 

 car of this kind leaves every twenty 

 minutes. After the last change at 

 Mitchell, ask the conductor to let you off 

 at the greenhouses. There are two 

 changes, one at East St. Louis and the 

 other at Mitchell. President Ammann 

 is making great preparations and expects 

 every member of the club to attend. 

 Ladies are especially invited. A general 

 good time is in store for those who at- 

 tend. 



A florists' summer league has been 

 formed to bowl once a week. Two teams 

 have already been made up as follows: 

 C. A. Kuehn, Ed. Gerlach, George 

 Schriefer, Henry Lohrenz, W. 0. Smith, 

 James Arata, Otto Bruenig, A. Gieger, 

 Wm. Adels and J. J. Beneke. We would 

 like to hear from other florists who 

 wish to join to make up the third team. 

 The list of prizes for the summer bowl- 

 ing will be made known later

The Michel Plant and Seed Co. has

 made an increase in its capital stock 

 from $25,000 to $30,000. Assets, $45,- 

 552.33; liabilities, $15,764.60.

The Market 



We have experienced some of the 

 hottest weather of the season of late, 

 but business on the whole has remained 

 fairly good. The quantity of really good 

 flowers now coming in is comparatively 

 small and those possessing the necessary 

 quality have brought good summer 

 prices. On the other hand, a number of 

 roses and carnations have brought little, 

 scarcely enough to pay the expense of 

 carrying them in. As many rose houses 

 are now being replanted and others 

 rested the supply of indoor roses is not 

 heavy. However, some good Beauty, Kil- 

 larney, Carnot and Kaiserin are seen. 

 Hybrids from outdoors are less plentiful 

 and the present week will end them. 



Carnations sell at a rather wide range, 

 those at the lowest prices are, however,, 

 poor. Sweet peas sell quite well. A 

 good many outdoor ones now come in. 

 The white, lavender, pink and orange 

 shades are in best demand. Peonies are 

 over. Gladioli and lilies are scarce. Val- 

 ley continues in good supply and fine
