DES MOINES, lA. 



The Market. 



Business was good last week, many 

 large funeral orders helping out the gen- 

 eral run. The weather has been so 

 changeable that people are afraid to be- 

 gin planting out, but we look for the 

 season to start with a rush about Maj 20. 



Mothers' day was well observed here. 

 In accordance with a rule fixed by popu- 

 lar accord and pushed by the florists, 

 the white carnation was worn in memory 

 of a sainted mother called to her reward, 

 while the red or pink carnation was worn 

 as a badge of honor for the loving mother 

 who is stiU numbered with the living. 

 Many a man with a white carnation 

 brushed a tear from his eye as he wan- 

 dered along the streets and saw in the 

 coat lapel of another the red or pink car- 

 nation. Before the day was half over, 

 every florist in the city was sold out of 

 flowers. Something over 10,000 carna- 

 tions were disposed of and more could 

 have been sold. This city seems to have 

 taken kindly to Mothers' day; many of 

 the ministers in the large churches 

 preached sermons on "Mother," and 

 some requested their congregations to 

 wear a flower to church Sunday morning. 

 May 8. The price asked by most of the 

 florists was 10 cents each, or $1 per dozen. 



Various Notes. 



Wm. Trillow reports a fine business in 

 Ms new downtown store, and is more than 

 pleased with results. 



Frank Eiley, of the Iowa Floral Co., 

 has gone to his old home in Cleveland, O., 

 on a short visit. Boostee. 



Farmington, Utah. — Kober't Miller, 

 president of the Miller Floral Co., which 

 was recently incorporated with a capital 

 of $100,000, has been engaged in grow- 

 ing roses for about twenty years and is 

 considered an expert in that line. The 

 company has purchased ten acres of 

 ground and is erecting greenhouses.
