Hans F. Heine, for the last eight 

 years with Wm. Edlefsen, now known as 

 the Edlefsen-Leideger Co., has severed 

 his connection with that firm and has re- 

 moved, with his wife, to Starved Eock, 

 111. 



Gust Pohl has just completed a house 

 30x108 and intends to build another, 18x 

 100, as soon as the rush of spring trade 

 is over. He has a fine lot of geraniums, 

 daisies and pansies. With all young car- 

 nations in the field, he is now busy trans- 

 planting asters. 



Heitman & Baerman, carnation grow- 

 ers in Wauwatosa, say they have not 

 made much headway in getting stock 

 into the field, as their soil is of a heavy 

 nature and does not handle so readily as 

 desired after the rainy spell, which has 

 kept the most of them guessing for some 

 time past. 



Manke Bros., of North Milwaukee, 

 have been working early and late, taking 

 advantage of all favorable weather. 



Nic Zweifel, of North Milwaukee, 

 says, "I hope it won't rain for a while, 

 so I can finish planting carnations, for 

 it's about time they were all in the 

 field." His indoor flowers are still of a 

 fine quality, and quantity not wanting. 



The C. C. PoUworth Co. reports busi- 

 ness good. The call for spring stock is 

 especially lively. They have just received 

 a carload of palms from Europe. 



The Holton & Hunkel Co. has its new 

 range at Brown Deer all covered with 

 glass and, with a large force of help and 

 favorable weather, expects to complete 

 the houses in ten or fourteen days. This 

 firm is handling some extra fine sweet 

 peas, which are shipped in from Water- 

 town, Wis. 



The annual May ball, which took place 

 May 14, was a grand success, both finan- 

 cially and otherwise, for everyone who 

 attended pronounced it a swell time. As 

 in former years, it rained all day and 

 night, but even that did not prevent a 

 large number from going, for the large 

 hall was filled with young and old, who
