Our clj^r is mined from the old Morrow County Beaver Swamp, which enables ua to furnish florists with 

 pots noted for strength, porosity, beauty in color, lightness in weight and smoothness in surface, making 

 them especially adapted to the successful growth of plants. 



Our factory is equipped with new and up-to-date machinery, 

 house full of stock. We are ready to give all orders prompt attention, (iive us your orde 

 satisfy you.

The Market. 



The sale of cut flowers for the week 

 has been remarkable. Carnations have 

 been just about equal to the demand, 

 although more white could have been 

 used. American Beauties and other 

 roses are in good supply and the de- 

 mand is good. 



Mothers' day created an extraordi- 

 nary demand for all kinds of flowers, 

 surpassing McKinley day. I think that 

 in the future Mothers' day will be 

 looked forward to as one of our banner 

 market days. 



Green goods are plentiful. 



The Sixth street flower market is 

 booming. Bedding stock is selling about 

 as fast as the florists can bring it in. 



The supply houses report extra good 

 sales on wire hanging baskets. , 



Various Notes. 



The Florists ' Society is working tooth 

 and toenail, as the saying is, for the 

 flower show this fall. Geo. S. Bartlett, 

 131 East Third street, is distributing 

 the preliminary schedule. The bowling 

 club is making preparations for an out- 

 ing in the near future. 



J. Chas. Murphy, one of our pro- 

 gressive young florists, is building an 

 additional 250-foot house. About July 

 1 he will take his brother, Frederick, 

 into partnership, when we will see a 

 hustling firm. 



Wm. Murphy is handling large quan- 

 tities of bedding plants for J. A. Pe- 

 terson. 



Visitors of the week: J. Keur, repre- 

 senting C. Keur & Sons, of Hillegom, 

 Holland, called on the florists May 13; 

 also M. Alexander, representing Lion 

 & Co., New York. G. E. M. 



MIIiWAUEEE. 



This year's sales of white carnations 

 for Mothers' day were away ahead of 

 expectations. While the wholesalers 

 cleaned up on them as far back as the 

 previous Wednesday, for shipping or- 

 ders, it was on Saturday and Sunday 

 that the local demand for them became 

 apparent. The observance of the day 

 has taken hold far more than was ex- 

 pected, and we trust that the future 

 will see it as popular here as in any 

 other city, for it is and will remain a 

 day well worth our special attention.
