EVANSVILLE, IND. 



The Market. 



There is nothing new to report about 

 conditions here. The business done the 

 last few weeks has been quite satisfac- 

 tory. Funeral work supplies the bulk 

 of the demand at present. Customers 

 are beginning to call for rose plants for 

 outdoor planting. Roses and carnations 

 are in good demand, are fairly plentiful 

 and of good quality. 



Various Notes. 



Julius Niednagel & Sons have been 

 busy and at times used all the flowers 

 they cut. Their delivery wagon was 

 run into by an automobile last week 

 and the shafts damaged considerably. 

 It happened just as the driver was turn- 

 ing into the driveway at the green- 

 houses. 



The Wm. Blackman Floral Co. is cut- 

 ting lots of roses and carnations and 

 enjoys a heavy call for them. 



Ben Kramer reports a good business. 

 The boy he formerly employed has be- 

 gun work at Newburgh for Otto Kueb- 

 ler, as he wished to learn the growing 

 part of the business. 



Henry Seymour has a good call for all 

 of his carnations. 



J. C. Elsperman's business is satis- 

 factor}\ 



Nellie Goodge is cutting some excel- 

 lent carnations. E. L. F. 



MINNEAPOLIS, MINN. 



At .1 recent meeting of florists and 

 market gardeners, held in the Commer- 

 cial Club rooms, plans were made for 

 the planting of flowers in the streets 

 and boulevards, in preparation for 

 Civic Celebration week. The hope was 

 expressed that this city might become 

 known as a "flower city," as well as 

 the Flour City. Addresses on the sub- 

 ject were made by Leroy Boughner, 

 chairman of the committee in charge, 

 and by H. L. Patthey and N. L. 

 Hughes. G. F. Eeeves, president of the 

 Market Gardeners' Association, and 

 George Libby, a former president, spoke 

 on Blatters of interest to the trade.
