Electric Hose 



^=^====i CORRUGATED) 



In the last few years our sales to florists have increased faster 

 than the sales of any other hose ever made. 



There can be only one reason. Florists don't create such records 

 for any manufactured article unless it is to their advantage to do so. 



If you haven't tried Electric Hose, you'd better have some put 

 in the greenhouse. Both economy and increased efficiency will result.

The Market. 



Business continues dull. The buyers 

 are listless and seem more or less dis- 

 couraged, although prices are so low 

 that they ought to be tempted. As soon 

 as strictly summer flowers, with better 

 keeping qualities, arrive plentifully, 

 things are expected to pick up, for re- 

 tailers will then be more careful to have 

 good displays. 



Nearly all the longer roses of good 

 qualit}- sell fairly well, but the prices 

 are low. Beauties are an exception. In 

 these the medium ones sell more readily 

 than the long. Wiiite, Enchantress and 

 Rose-pink Enchantress carnations hold 

 up their quality surprisingly well, but 

 are in request only for work, and little 

 at that. The longiflorums, lily of the 

 valley and gladioli are good. Early as- 

 ters can be had everywhere. Stokesia 

 is now offered. Feverfew and candy- 

 tuft have accumulated and find a slow 

 market. 



The supply of green goods is suffi- 

 cient to meet all demands. Ferns are 

 longer and harder and consequently 

 keep well. The length of time the 

 southern plumosus is on the road tells 

 on the quality, for when some consign- 

 ments arrive they are heated and soft. 

 On Saturday business was almost at 

 a standstill in the Jabez Elliott Flower 

 Market. Many belated geraniums, espe- 

 cially, were offered, but few were sold. 

 Some cuts were, however, disposed of. 

 The usual throngs of visitors, who come 

 to see but not to buy, were not in evi- 

 dence. 



Various Notes. 

 The annual meeting of the Florists' 

 Society M-ill be held at Gus Adrian 's 

 home on Monday, July 11. 



L. H. Kyrk is now offering cornflower 

 asters, or stokesia. Mr. Kyrk's sweet 

 peas are excellent. 



George & Allan are sending excellent 

 longiflorums to C. E. Critchell's. 



Louis Murphy has purchased Ray 

 Murphy's interest in their greenhouses 

 and will run the plant in his own name. 

 Bay will now assist his father, William 

 Murphy, at the wholesale store. The 

 Murphy family held their annual re- 

 union and celebrated William Murphy's 

 birthday anniversary at St. Joseph, on 

 the Ohio river. 



William Gardner came down last Sat- 

 urday evening to take his wife and 

 baby with him to New Castle. They
