The Market. 



The last week, while a great many of 

 our florists were enjoying themselves 

 at the convention in Dayton, the mar- 

 ket was dragging along the same as 

 when they left. As to stock, it runs 

 about the same. Extra first-class is 

 scarce, with plenty of second-class stock 

 for all demands. As the demand is not 

 heavy, plenty of this stock went to the 

 dump last week. 



Miss Belle Miller, of Springfield, 111., 

 is sending to Kuehn about the best 

 roses coming to this market, among them 

 being extra fine Kaiserin, Carnot, Perle 

 and Bride. This stock being good and 

 clean, it sells well. 



Carnations are poor. The best bring 

 not over $1 per hundred, all being short- 

 stemmed. Outdoor stock is plentiful, es- 

 pecially asters and tuberoses. Asters are 

 in big demand. They take the place of 

 carnations in funeral work. Tuberoses 

 are too many for the demand. Hy- 

 drangeas do not sell well. 



Some of our local growers say that 

 young stock in roses and carnations is 

 looking fine, and that the St. Louis mar- 

 ket will be better supplied with these 

 this coming season than ever before. The 

 prospect for a large crop of California 

 violets among the Kirkwood growers is 

 good. 



Various Notes. 



Charles Fleckinstein, formerly con- 

 nected with the old Mound City Cut 

 Flower Co., was in town attending the 

 funeral of his father-in-law last week. 



J. W. Dunford, W. C. Winter, F. W. 

 Ude, Jr., and Henry Johann, Jr., vis- 

 ited the different growers around Kirk- 

 wood last week and found everything 

 in first-class shape among those vis- 

 ited. 



John L. Koenig, W. H. Kruse and J. 

 J. Beneke arriv^ home from the con- 

 vention on Saturday morning. 



C. A. Kuehn is spending a few days 

 at his old home in Detroit before return- 

 ing home from the convention. 



Fred Weber, Theo. Miller and Fred 

 Meinhardt and their wives are visiting 

 other points of interest before returning 

 home from the Dayton convention. 



Those who attended the convention are 

 well pleased with the entertainment 

 given them by the Dayton boys, and the 

 only complaint we have to make is 

 against the weather-man. President 

 Heiss, Harry Altick, H. H. Ritter and 

 Warren Matthews were always on the 

 lookout to see that all was right, and 1 

 know the rest of the St. Louis delega- 

 tion are with me in extending the above 

 and the rest of the Dayton boys a vote 

 of thanks for their kind treatment. 



George Angermueller visited at Fort 

 Wayne and New Castle, Ind., before re- 

 turning home, and says he had a good 

 time at all the places visited. 



The bowling contest was well handled 

 by Gecrge A?mus. We did not have a 

 team to represent us, but nevertheless we 

 came back with five prizes. The cham- 

 pion lady bowler was Mrs. F. C. Weber. 

 Mrs. Theo. Miller came in fourth, Mrs. 

 F. H. Meinhardt seventh and Miss Mein- 

 hardt twelfth. The writer came in first 

 in the individual class among the men. 

 Philadelphia came in first again in the 

 team contest, and keeps the beautiful 

 Beatty cup, but then we still have the 

 Kasting cup for next year. The *.* Phil- 

 lies" wll be on their own grounds next 

 year, and it will take a strong team to 

 win from them. We expect to be with 

 them in thb coniing contest. 



Mr. and Mrs. Carl Beyer left Tuesday 

 morning for Niagara Falls. They will 

 also visit Buffalo, Toronto and Detroit 

 before returning home. 



Vincent Gorley is visiting friends at 

 Cincinnati this w^eek. J. J. B. 



Dover, Me. — B. T. Genthner has com- 

 pleted the palm house, 16x32, added to 

 his place this summer.
