The Market. 



With a good deal of bright and more 

 mild vreather, the receipts in most lines 

 of cut flowers were quite satisfactory 

 last week. While roses in all colors are 

 still what one would call scarce, the 

 supply of carnations was about equal 

 to the demand, but with funeral work 

 still predominating, stock for that line 

 was well cleaned up most of the time. 

 Violets and valley also moved well, 

 while bulbous stock came in quite handy 

 to fill in. Ijilies of late have been a 

 good proposition. 



Various Notes. 



A visit to the Freytag establishment, 

 on Forest Home avenue, found the place 

 in the usual spick-and-span condition. 

 Although they have been kept excep- 

 tionally busy with funeral and other 

 work of late, they manage to keep 

 things just so, which is a point often 

 overlooked, especially when green- 

 houses are run in connection with a 

 store. 



The Mitchell Street Florist had the 

 window tastefully arranged with bas- 

 kets filled with blooming plants, plus 

 trimmings, which helps the sales mate- 

 rially. 



The McKenney Co. says there is noth- 

 ing to the report that they intend to 

 move to their new property acquired on 

 Jackson street; it is only a matter of 

 investment, for the present at least. 



J. M. Fox & Son have an attractive 

 window, presenting a rustic effect and 

 incidentally pushing the sales of single 

 and double narcissi. 



Nic Zweifel, of North Milwaukee, is 

 putting in benches and the heating sys- 

 tem in the latest addition, a carnation 

 house 27 x 200. This gives him a good 

 chance to take care of his young stock 

 as it comes out of the cutting bench. 

 His stock is in fine condition and the 

 quantity of cut blooms is satisfactory. 



Manke Bros., right across the way 

 from Mr. Zweifel, say they are not 

 having so good success with Enchant- 

 ress this season as in former years. 

 White Perfection and Beacon with 

 them are looking and doing especially 

 well these days. 



The A. F. Kellner Co. has the order 

 for the bachelors' ball to be held at 

 the Deutscher Club February 19.
