The Market. 



Business is about the same as usual, 

 not having increased to any great extent. 

 At present it is far too warm to be com- 

 fortable, though we have had a night or 

 two when firing was necessary, especially 

 for roses. 



Some good Bride, Bridesmaid and 

 Ivory are being cut. Killaruey and My 

 Maryland are looking well. My Mary- 

 land is still short-stemmed, but has a fine 

 color. Carnations are short -stemmed, but 

 the blooms are good. 



Various Notes. 



Julius Niednagel & Sons are busy put- 

 ting in their new 150 horse-])Ower boiler 

 and building a new oflSce and salesroom. 



Louis Fritsch has his new carnation 

 house about finished and will soon have 

 the carnations planted. He will heat the 

 house by hot water. 



Austin Wallace has several benches 

 of sweet peas planted for winter bloom- 

 ing. His mums are growing nicely. 



A visit to Henry Seymour found him 

 busy on several large funeral designs. 

 His carnations are short, but the flowers 

 are extra good. 



William Ryan, one of the employees 

 of the Wm. Blackman Floral Co., disap- 

 peared September 4 and nothing has been 

 heard of him since. He left no word and 

 said nothing to anybody about leaving. 

 He came here from St. Louis three or 

 four years ago, as a contractor.
