The Market. 



Stock of all kinds has been scarce 

 for the last week. Funeral work has 

 been brisk, and there have not been 

 nearly enough flowers to meet the de- 

 mand, so quite a lot of work had to.be 

 made up of galax leaves. 



The mum plants are fine this year, 

 and are budding nicely. We soon shall 

 have them to cut, which will relieve 

 the shortage of flowers now prevailing. 



Various Notes. 



Charles Humfeld and wife, of Clay 

 Center, Kan., passed through this city 

 last week on their way to Muncie, Ind., 

 to visit Mr. Humfeld 's brothers. They 

 will return by way of Chicago and visit 

 the large growers there. 



Lewis Walmsley, a young florist, is 

 building a greenhouse at 917 Tracy 

 avenue for the purpose of growing bed- 

 ding plants for next season. 



L. Drear is installing a large hot 

 water boiler to keep up a better heat 

 this winter. His chrysanthemums are 

 fine this fall and trade has been good. 



W. H. Sawvel reports that his carna- 

 tion plants are the best he has ever 

 grown, some plants having as many 

 as twenty-five shoots. He is planting 

 almost his entire range of houses to 

 carnations and already is cutting the 

 new crop. The new -dam he has built 

 across the creek is furnishing an abun- 

 dance of water. 



W. H. Humfeld is recovering from a 

 severe attack of rheumatism, from 

 which he has been sufifering for over a 

 month.
