The Weekly Florists' Review*

You know what hot Weather does to stock. Well, Milwaukee is well favored, 

 as we have no very hot weather here, and in consequence stock of all Icinds is still in 

 good shape. Big cut of fancy Carnations, Roses and Giganteums. Try a. few shipments 

 and be convinced.
