now, and the wholesalers would have 

 little trouble in filling any size of order 

 at almost any price. Lily of the valley 

 is having a good call, and roses and car- 

 nations sell fairly well every day ; that is, 

 the best quality of stock. The lighter 

 shades of sweet peas nieet with some de- 

 mand. There are now plenty of dagger 

 ferns in the market, also asparagus and 

 smilax. 



Variotu Notes. 



Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Watts, of Meridian, 

 Miss., spent a few days here last week, 

 calling on the trade and buying supplies. 



D. Augspurger, of D. U. Augspurger 

 & Sons, Peoria, 111., called on the trade 

 last week, and he says he had an excel- 

 lent trade. 



G. Edwards is building four new 

 greenhouses in Kirkwood, near Ahner's 

 place. He will grow carnations and 

 violets for the local market. Mr. Ed- 

 wards is a new man in the business, and 

 we wish him success. 



The trade extends its sympathy to Al- 

 fred Werner, of Werner Bros., in the 

 loss of his young wife, who died Thurs- 

 <lay, June 3, after a short illness. Mr. 

 Werner was married less than a year ago. 

 The funeral was held from her late resi- 

 dence in Clayton. 



During the big storm Thursday, June 

 3, a gang of street workers in front of 

 the flower store of John F. Quinn, on 

 North Grand avenue, rushed into Mr. 

 Quinn 's place. He did not accord them 

 a hearty welcome, but tried to eject them 

 from his place. A riot call for the police 

 over the 'phone caused a stampede which 

 did considerable damage to the appear- 

 ance of Mr. Quinn 's place.

 his eyes last week while decorating for a
