John Zech says it easily is possible 

 to have too much of a good thing, and 

 thinks the market may be in that con- 

 dition next season with respect to Kil- 

 larney. Albert Lies, at Niles Center, 

 is sending Zech & Mann some splendid 

 Maid and Bride, and the firm thinks 

 that the grower who does the old vari- 

 eties well will get good money for them 

 next season. 



F. F. Benthey, of Kyle & Foerster, 

 says the Frederick Benthey Co., at New 

 Castle, is having splendid results with 

 Beauties that were planted in the 

 •winter. 



E. E. Pieser describes the peony situ- 

 ation by saying the stock comes in by 

 the wagon-load, goes out by the armful, 

 and the balance is stored. 



E. T. Wanzer, of Wheaton, who mar- 

 kets his cut through the A. L. Bandall 

 Co., says the season has been quite sat- 

 isfactory. He is methodical, and keeps 

 complete records. They show that he 

 has not thus far cut quite as many 

 carnations as to the same date last 

 season, but that average prices have 

 been enough higher to more than make 

 up the difference. With another crop 

 coming on at the end of this month, he 

 expects to considerably improve the 

 record before replanting. Sweet peas 

 also have done better than last year. 



J. L. Baske lost his mother last 

 week. The funeral was held Sunday. 



At Winterson's Seed Store it is said 

 the season is rapidly drawing to a 

 dose. They had a wonderful March, 

 and in both April and May showed 

 some increases over last year, with 

 business holding out later in the season 

 than it did last year. 



Webb Eandall has spent his spare 

 time with an oculist this week. A pair 

 of specially ground glasses is the result. 



E. C. Amling says that in spite of the 

 low prices of last week, growers' 

 checks were larger than the week be- 

 fore, which was unanimously pro- 

 nonnced one of the best this market 

 ever has seen. The fact will illustrate 

 the increase in supply. 



Hoerber Bros, have not yet com- 

 pleted their new range of ten houses, 

 for roses, carnations and mums, but 

 are already looking forward to the
