returned from a fortnight's fishing trip 

 to Alden, Mich. 



C. W. McKellar says the demand for 

 orchids has improved with the call for 

 other items. The crop of Cattleya Gas- 

 kelliana holds out surprisingly long. 



Peter Eeinberg and Leonard Kill, ac- 

 companied by their wives, are spending 

 a few days at Salem, Wis., as the guests 

 of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Kransz. 



William Graff, of Columbus, arrived 

 Monday from the resort where his fam- 

 ily is. He came because his brother at 

 the store had wired him that business 

 would be much better if more stock 

 could be obtained. 



Charles Dressier, of the city store of 

 Wietor Bros., is spending the week in 

 Wisconsin on a Ashing trip. 



John Kruchten and family returned 

 Monday from an outing at Fox Lake. 



As an instance of how bare the mar- 

 ket has been, E. E. Pieser, of the Ken- 

 nicott Bros. Co., says that at closing 

 time Sunday there was not a flower in 



the store, except a few bunches of sweet 

 peas which had been thrown in the bar- 

 rel. A Greek gave a quarter for the 

 contents of the barrel. 



Bassett & Washburn say that they 

 have steadily had good business on Mon- 

 day, Friday and Saturday, but that the 

 middle of the week has been quiet. This 

 week Monday brought a special run of 

 orders for roses. 



Clifford Pruner is no longer with the 

 E. F. Winterson Co. It is understood 

 he will go on the road, representing 

 several supply houses on commission. 



Fritz Bahr and family are at Niagara 

 Falls and Fritz is spending a good share 

 of his time in the .selection of comic post 

 cards, endeavoring to fit the fancies of 

 his friends at home. 



Two young ladies who have done es- 

 pecially well on the floor of the Flower 

 Growers' Market this season are Miss 

 Gunterberg and Miss Tonner. They 

 have made an arrangement to look after 

 each other's interests while they take 



their vacations. Miss Gunterberg now 

 is away and Miss Tonner looking after 

 the combined receipts. When Miss Gun- 

 terberg returns Miss Tonner will take 

 her vacation and all the stock will go to 

 Miss Gunterberg. 



The A. L. Eandall Co. reports special 

 satisfaction that last week's sales were 

 ahead of the same week a year ago. 

 With receipts the lightest of the season, 

 and a generally inactive market early in 

 the week, such a result hardly was ex- 

 pected. 



Vaughan & Sperry state that they ex- 

 pect their peonies to be all cleaned up 

 by August 7. The demand is somewhat 

 improved. 



C. M. Dickinson and family have re- 

 turned from their outing at Pelican 

 Lake. Wm. Abrahamson, traveler for 

 E. H. Hunt, is at home from a month's 

 trip west as far as Denver. 



Edward Amerpohl, of Janesville, Wis., 

 was in town this week. He says he will 

 have a good stock of his new fern for
