In designs, Henderson had a large 

 clock. He tried to keep the hands set at 

 11 o'clock, being an Elk, but the boys 

 insisted that 8 o'clock was best, on ac- 

 count of the 8 o'clock closing law, and 

 they managed to keep it at that hour 

 most of the time. 



Simanton & Pence made a cornucopia 

 inscribed "Nebraska," with all sorts of 

 fruits and flowers rolling forth. 



Williams' design was a lyre. It was a 

 beautiful piece, but not as popular as the 

 ones before mentioned. 



Dole showed an open book inscribed 

 "Matt. 6, 28-30," which all florists will 

 know at once: "Consider the lilies," 

 etc. 



A good social time was enjoyed 

 throughout the week, and on Friday even- 

 ing President Green acted as host at a 

 downtown cafe, and gave the boys one of 

 those stag suppers that florists know so 

 well how to enjoy. 



This was followed by a bowling match, 

 at which some fearful and wonderful 

 scores were made. C. H. Gkeen. 



THE CYPRESS MARKET. 



From New Orleans comes the report 

 of advances that range from 50 cents 

 to $1 on 2-inch tank, all first and second 

 clears, 1%-inch and 2-inch selects, 1-inch 

 and 2-inch shop grades of cypress. On 

 most of the items mentioned, the ad- 

 vances take the shape, it is understood, 

 of reducing concessions. The demand is 

 called fairly active. Mill stocks are 

 badly broken, one or two items of No. 1 

 common, IMj-inch ship and 1%-inch tank 

 being mentioned as especially scarce right 

 now. The grade used for greenhou.se 

 work is tank cypress, usually l|^-inch. 

 The longer lengths of this are said to be 

 in strong demand. Most of the mills in 

 the Louisiana belt are having trouble 

 with shipments, caused by a pro- 

 nounced car shortage. Requisitions for 

 rolling stock on both the Southern Pacific 

 and Texas & Pacific, fail with increasing 

 regularity to produce the necessary cam 

 and complaints on this score are ad vigor- 

 ous as they are frequent.
