The Market. 



Up to last week business was quite 

 satisfactory, but has taken a tumble 

 mnce then. Stock all around was plen- 

 tiful, with demand on the decrease; con- 

 sequently prices came down a few 

 notches. The only scarce articles were 

 American Beauties and Easter lilies. 



Various Notes. 



Spring was ushered in in grand style 

 March 21, for the thermometer regis- 

 tered 77 degrees in the shade at 3 p. m. 

 It remained fair till Sunday, at which 

 time it rained, while Monday we were 

 treated to snow with a quick drop in 

 temperature. 



J. M. Fox & Son, who have occupied 

 the present location at 414 Milwaukee 

 street for many years, have been noti- 

 fied that the property has been sold. 

 J. Fox, Jr., says they have not yet de- 

 cided what to do. 



The Milwaukee Florists' Club is in 

 much the same position, for the build- 

 ing in which the club held its meetings 

 has been sold and is to be replaced by 

 an up-to-date structure. At the meeting 

 next Thursday, April 6, the trustees are 

 expected to report the location of new 

 quarters. 



A visit to the C. C. Pollworth Co.'s 

 greenhouses found everything looking 

 fine; the carnation range especially 

 never looked better and there is a 

 steady cut in sight for the rest of the 

 season. The young stock is also thrifty 

 and clean. 



Fred Schmeling, on the Blue Mound 

 road, who was one of the first persons 

 to grow lilies for the local market, has 

 lost all faith in giganteum and says 

 that he will grow Formosa lilies ex- 

 clusively from now on. To judge by a 

 batch of the latter which he now has, 

 one must admit that they are fine. 



At the Holton & Hunkel Co.'s green- 

 houses at Brown Deer, some exception- 

 ally fine Killarney and White Killarney 

 roses are being cut these days. This 

 company reports a strong demand for 

 Asparagus plumosus strings during the 

 last two weeks.
