EVANSVILLE^IND. 



The Market. 



Business has been fine for several 

 ■weeks, till warmer weather came on, when 

 it slackened considerably. Eoses, carna- 

 tions and mums had been rather scarce 

 and, with a number of weddings and lots 

 of funeral work on hand, a general 

 scurry was made for enough flowers. 

 Since the warm spell stock has increased 

 and demand decreased to such an extent 

 that there is a glut. Chrysanthemums are 

 coming on fast, also roses. Carnations 

 are not so plentiful, but are of good 

 quality. Sweet peas are good and bring 

 a fair price. 



Various Notes. 



Benj. Kramer has used large quantities 

 of mums, roses and carnations. Business 

 has been good with him, but a little quiet 

 lately. 



Austin Wallace sold all of his mums 

 to good advantage. Benj. Kramer han- 

 dled about half of them and the rest 

 were consigned to St. Louis. He has 

 several benches of sweet peas that are 

 looking good. They are full of buds. 

 E. C. Amling, of Chicago, will handle his 

 cut. 



Henry Seymour has some nice carna- 

 ' tions and a large supply of mums. Stock 

 here is looking well. 



J. C. Elsperman has been kept busy. 

 He has used a large amount of roses and 

 mums, also all the carnations he could 



get. 



Louis Fritsch says his carnations are 

 doing better than expected. This is his 

 second season and he looks for an ex- 

 cellent trade. E. L. F. 



ADMIRATION 



This carnation we offer to the trade as being one of the finest Carnationi of aar color 

 that we Itnow of up to date. Being a beautiful shade of pinli. somewhat lighter than Winona, 

 having that beautiful tatln finisb, always showing up well either in natural or artificial light. 

 Plants benched in August are now coining Into full crop, carrying from 10 to 20 buds. We 

 have been cutting since September 10th. As a money maker you will find no equal. 



The size of the flower is 3 to S'-i inches, excellent form, well built up in the center, with 

 the petals so arranged as to make it stand the general requirements of a good fancy com- 

 mercial variety. A grand keeper and shipper. 



The habit is ideal, upright with no surplus grass and every shoot going Into flower. Its 

 freedom and earliness make it nearly the ideal carnation. The calyx is very tough and 

 seldom bursts. Can be handled with great success either from the field or grown inside all 

 summer. No one has to be an expert to handle this variety. It scored 86 points at the 

 American Carnation Society meeting at Indianapolis, January 27 to 28, 1909. 



Price, $12.00 per 100; $100.00 per 1000. 



250 at 1000 rate.
