MILWAUKEE, WIS. 



The Market. 



The market conditions remain about 

 the same as they have been for the last 

 few weeks. Boses are still scarce, and 

 the prospects for a good supply of this 

 stock are still poor. Carnations are 

 arriving in abundance and the trade 

 has no trouble in getting all its needs 

 supplied. Bulbous stock is also in good 

 supply and the stock is fine. 



Violets, as usual, were in great de- 

 mand for St. Valentine's day, and we 

 are thankful to be able to say that the 

 supply was suflScient to take care of all 

 orders. The Wisconsin grown violets 

 came in much more heavily than was 

 expected and the stock was in fine con- 

 dition. Everyone seems to be enjoying 

 a good business for this time of year 

 and the only fly in the ointment is that 

 collections are slower than usual. 



Various Notes. 



Mrs. R. E. Miller, of the Racine 

 Floral Co., Racine, Wis., visited Mil- 

 waukee last Friday and Saturday. Mrs. 

 Miller was accompanied by Miss Lee, 

 of Racine. They attended the concert 

 at the Auditorium Friday evening, at 

 which Mme. Tettrazini was the star at- 

 traction. H. J. S. 



A. M. Dettman & Son have just com- 



Sleted four houses 100 feet long of 

 [oninger material and have them al- 

 ready well stocked with bedding plants. 

 A garage and a new heating plant are 

 results of recent industry here also. 

 Business at the uptown store is exceed- 

 ingly good. 



Houston, Tex. — To encourage the 

 boutonniere habit, R. C. Kerr, and Man- 

 ager Sachtleben, of the Majestic thea- 

 ter, have made Friday night flower 

 night at the Majestic, and to each 

 member of the audience is presented a 

 flower on that night. Hyacinths were 

 used the first Friday the custom was 

 adopted.

Now's the time to gain on 



Spring 



If you wait for the weather to start your Spring plants, the market will 

 be gone before you have an/thing to oflPer. An equipment of Sunliglit Double 

 Glass Sasb should be ordered early. They provide growing conditions even 

 in the worst weather. The "s-inch air space between the two layers of glass 

 shuts out the cold and holds in the warmth, letting in the light and pro- 

 tecting better than mats or boards. 



Ten^years use has proved their success. Made of the best cyoress; glazed 

 or repaired in half the usual time: eliminating all need of mats or shutters; 

 making plants early without undue forcing— they are simply indispensable 

 to obtain the best results. 



A new double glass greenhouse 



The Sunlight idea has been carried into an inexpensive greenhouse, 11 xl2, 

 11x21, 11x36, or 11x48 feet in size. It is made of Sunlight Double Olass 

 Sash, which are instantly removable when the greenhouse is idle for use on 

 hot-beds or cold-frames. Thus they serve a double purpose. Sasb ordered 

 now for Spring work may be used on a greenhouse frame ordered at your 

 convenience for next Fall or Winter.
