KANSAS QTY. 



The Market 



Stoek is uot plentiful and carnations 

 are even scarce and are selling for 3 

 cents and 4 cents. At times there are 

 not enough to meet the demand. There 

 has been a good demand for Beauties 

 the last week and the quality is fair. 

 There has been a brisk demand for pink 

 and white roses, but the quality is be- 

 low the average and a better grade could 

 have been sold if it could have been had. 

 Sweet peas have been in good demand. 

 There were some fine flowers on the 

 market, with good stems for this season 

 of the year. A few gladioli are to be 

 had. They are selling at 4 cents. Few 

 callas are seen. The last tulips were 

 cut last week. A few purple iris are in 

 and they sell readily. 



Various Notes. 



W,e have been having peculiar weather 

 the last few weeks. One day it is as 

 pleasant as summer and the next day 

 it is snowing and freezing. There has 

 been little bedding done so far and what 

 has been done is frozen. We are two 

 weeks behind with our planting and • 

 when the sun comes out once more there 

 will be a mighty rush for all. 



Nelson Jarrett has started building 

 two large greenhouses, with a fine office 

 and potting shed. They will be heated 

 by hot water. He never brags much 

 about what he intends doing, but we see 

 that he is coming rapidly to the front. 

 He has the finest geraniums in the 

 market. He has added the best new va- 

 rieties, which are bought at first sight. 

 He says that his strawberries are all 

 killed by the frost and there will be 

 no fruit of any kind. 



George F. Eenz, of Kansas City, Kan., 

 has opened a store at 751 Central ave- 

 nue, in that town. Mr. Renz was in 

 this city last week, buying stock and 

 making arrangements for regular orders 

 for stock to furnish his store. 



R. S. Brown & Son are doing an im- 

 mense business this spring, in young 

 plants. They are about sold out of 

 coleus, having had a good demand. 



Mr. Snell, of Atchison, Kan., was in 

 the city last week, attending to some 

 urgent business and also purchasing 

 some plants of which he was short. He 

 reports business as being good in his 

 city. 



Arthur Newell reports business as good 

 considering the weather. Mr. Newell 

 will leave in three weeks for Texas, 

 where he and Samuel Murray own 600 

 acres of the best wheat land in the 

 south. The last report from there is 

 that the wheat is in the best of condi- 

 tion. The green bug that pervades Okla- 

 homa and Kansas is not known there and 

 therefore a large crop is expected. 



W. H. H. 



AuBUEN, Ind. — Miss Marie Ten Eyck 

 and Clyde Hursh were married recently. 

 The bride is the daughter of C. M. Ten 

 Eyck.
