The Market. 



Our local conditions are far from 

 satisfactory as far as the retail business 

 is concerned. The wholesale market 

 is about the same as last week, with the 

 exception, perhaps, of carnations, which 

 are much better in quality but sell at 

 lower prices, good stock being worth 

 from 1 to 2 cents. If the quality im- 

 proves under the cool weather, the 

 prices may advance. Roses are much 

 in evidence; the quality is fair and 

 prices are good. Good or fancy stock 

 sells fast. Killarneys show fine color, 

 but Maids are just the opposite. Beau- 

 ties are still plentiful and good, with 

 prices fair. The present cool weather 

 gives much encouragement in this line. 

 Maryland and Melody are poor in qual- 

 ity and many of them are railroaded 

 to the dump. 



A new crop of sweet peas is in and 

 the butterfiy sorts look fine. Local 

 growers are giving much attention to 

 these flowers, as they please both the 

 retailer and his customers. Lilium 

 giganteum is plentiful, of fine quality, 

 and brings good prices. Valley is abun- 

 dant, with large bells and bright 

 foliage. 



Plants are moving fast, but the prices 

 are only fair, though the quality, on the 

 average, is fine. More business is ex- 

 pected and being prepared for in this 

 department. Ferns seem to attract

 Local growers say that the planting 

 business this year is without doubt the 

 best in many years. 



Various Notes. 



Vacation seems to be much in every- 

 one's mind. On Monday, June 24, 

 F. Fromhold, of the W. L. Rock Flower 

 Co., goes north to the lakes for a three 

 weeks' stay. Sidney Miller and Nelson 

 .Tennison, of the same firm, leave for 

 vacation at the same time. 



H. Kusik & Co. report the largest 

 shipment of the year in Beauties and 

 carnations. This firm is moving lots of 

 wire work. 



Arthur Newell is exceedingly busy 

 these days, but finds time to visit the 



store occasionally. The new store is a 

 great success and everyone there seems 

 to be busy. 



Miss Murray reports a heavy run of 

 funeral work last week, including an 

 especially handsome casket cover and 

 many floral designs. 



The Summerfield Floral Co., of 

 Springfield, Mo., was a heavy buyer in 

 the local market last week. 



The W. L. Rock Flower Co. was 

 burned out of its store, at 1116 Walnut 

 street, Sunday morning, June 16. The 

 firm is moving out the remaining fix- 

 tures. The damage amounts to about 

 $300. 



A tornado swept this section of the 

 west June 15 and 16, doing damage to 

 the extent of thousands of dollars, but
