MILWAUKEE. 



The Market. 



The dark weather of last week short- 

 ened the supply in all lines, and as there 

 was a good demand, business showed a 

 decided improvement. In fact, carna- 

 tions were scarce Friday and Saturday, 

 and this gave the bulbous stock a fair 

 show for once. At this writing the call 

 for white carnations for St. Patrick's 

 day is heavy, and it looks as though there 

 will be a shortage in this line. 



Various Notes. 



The North Milwaukee plant formerly 

 owned by C. Johanson, which has been 

 managed by four different parties in the 

 last two years for the Wisconsin Na- 

 tional Building & Loan Association, has 

 now been purchased by Albert Groth. 

 Up to the time of buying, Mr. Groth con- 

 ducted a grocery store near the city 

 limits. 



The damage caused by the storm three 

 weeks ago at the Edlefsen plant in North 

 Milwaukee, which destroyed four houses 

 of his best carnation plants, has been 

 repaired and all is now in shape for busi- 

 ness. Sweet peas are coming up in sev- 

 eral benches, while young stock of car- 

 nations, mums and bedding stock fills 

 one house. 



The Mueller & Schroeder Co. will grow 

 "White Perfection carnations exclusively 

 for white the coming season. 



Manke Bros, like Beacon, as grown by 

 their neighbor, N. Zweifel, so well that 

 they will put in several benches to re- 

 place the old Cardinal. 



Charles Menger supplied valley, callas 

 and Easter lilies for the third flower 

 service at the Wesley Methodist Epis- 

 copal church last Sunday. 



Visitor: Fred Kentschler, of Madi- 

 son, Wis. E. O. 



Kansas City, Mo. — Edgar Bunyon, 40 

 years old, fell from the steps of a build- 

 ing at 1505 Grand avenue recently, and 

 broke his right arm. 



Milwaukee, Wis. — A large flower 

 show is to be held in this city next 'fall. 

 The committee of arrangements consists 

 of H. V. Hunkel, C. C. PoUworth, Will- 

 iam Zimmerman, Nic Zweifel, J. G. 

 Heitmann, August F. Kellner and C. 

 Dallwig.
