The Market; 



All in all, there was a change for the 

 better to report for last week. Stock in 

 all lines came in more steadily and freely 

 "than the week previous, and with the 

 Bupply came a steady demand which kept 

 things moving nicely and gave the market 

 a good tone. The latter part of the week 

 found a brisk demand for roses, Beauties 

 and carnations. Eomans, Paper Whities, 

 tuUps and the like also came in in larger 

 quantities and valley and violets moved 

 well. Saturday, January 29, roses and 

 Beauties were indeed a scarce article, 

 good money failing to 'produce them, and 

 even the large neighboring markets could 

 give no relief. Locally, McKinley day 

 was really not much to speak of. The 

 receipts of carnations on that day were 

 heavy, and nearly all the retailers bought 

 a few extra ones, and the same can be 

 said of the shipping orders; consequently 

 iall the stock was cleaned out before 

 night. Although pink of the Lawson 

 shade was the original McKinley day 

 color, red was the color called for locally. 



Various Notes. 



Currie Bros, say that their long suit 

 last week was funeral work, there being 

 several large funerals out of town. 



The Edlefsen-Leidiger Co. reports a 

 little something doing all the time. They 

 complained of the rose shortage last Sat- 

 urday, which caused them endless trou- 

 ble. 



The Holton & Hunkel Co. is now cut- 

 ting a nice daily lot of Easter lilies and 

 lily of the valley. 



While there are small lots of blooming 

 plants coming in these days, the C. C. 

 PoUworth Co. says that the weather con- 

 ditions greatly regulate their sales, the 

 cold weather practically causing this 

 branch of their business to cease com- 

 pletely. 



The Wisconsin Floral Co., located in 

 the Caswell building, reports lively sales 

 of carnations, both single and in quan- 

 tity, for McKinley day, and says that 

 business for the whole week was quite 

 satisfactory. 



After laboring for some time under 

 the impression that the American Carna- 

 tion Society would hold its next conven- 

 tion in Milwaukee, the local boys were 

 greatly surprised and disappointed to 

 know that the 1911 convention will be 

 held in Boston. Our delegation to the 

 Pittsburg convention returned Sunday, 

 January 30. 



Christ Lund, Wausau, Wis., visited us 

 last week. E. O. 



Winchester, Mass. — The greenhouses 

 of the late George MUne, on Lincoln 

 street, are to be conducted by his wife.
