The Market 



The continued mild weather of last 

 week helped to keep the market well sup- 

 plied with roses, lilies and mums. The 

 early varieties of the latter are mostly 

 gone, and the fancy and midseason va- 

 rieties now reign. Now that mums are 

 plentiful, everything seems likewise, as 

 usual, and this had a tendency to weaken 

 prices all around. While carnations are 

 only equal to the demand, they, too, came 

 down in price. On Friday evening the 

 much looked for rain came and it has 

 been cool and cloudy, with occasional 

 rains, up to Monday evening. These 

 conditions, no doubt, will shorten the sup- 

 ply for some time, anyhow. 



The funerals of the late millionaire 

 lumber dealer, J. Schroeder, and the 

 former city official, P. Muenzberg, cre- 

 ated quite a demand for stock. The west 

 side florists, who were chiefly benefited, 

 had no trouble to fill the orders, as there 

 was plenty of stock. 



Various Notes. 



W. A. Kennedy, of the C. C. Poll- 

 worth Co., escorted his mother home to 

 New York, and while he is down east he 

 will visit some of the large growers. 



M. Moore, who is associated with Mrs. 

 Ennis in the retail flower business and 

 is the democratic candidate for state 

 senator, fourth district, had a narrow 

 escape recently, as an automobile contain- 

 ing him and five others was ditched near 

 North^ Milwaukee. They were running 

 at a low speed; consequently no one was 

 seriously injured. 



Every member should attend the regu- 

 lar monthly meeting next Thursday, No- 

 vember 5, as important business is on 

 hand. E. O. 



A fire at the greenhouses of William 

 Getzien is reported to have caused a loss 

 of $7,000. 



Jamaica Plain, Mass. — L. C. Margot, 

 on Center street, maintains attractive dis- 

 plays in his show windows. 



Glrvin's Handy Cutter 



Mr. Florist, If you once firet one of these cutters on your finger you will never 

 be without it for many times the price. Just the thing for cutting your carnations, 

 sweet peas, asters, melons, grapes, etc. Why be bothered with a knife or follow 

 the old way of breaking your flowers when a Handy Cutter will do the work better 



and save you money and time ? Don't continue 

 breaking your carnations and thus ruin hundreds 

 of young shoots daily, simply because a knife is 

 unhandy to work with, but try a Handy Cutter, if 

 you are not entirely satisfied with it you can return 

 ft and hB"e your money refunded. These cutters 

 are made of spring brass, highly nickel-plated, and 

 contain a removable blade.
