of the Ozarks. Mr. Carter is a lover 

 of nature. 



James Papadakos, of the Appolo 

 Flower Shop, has returned from a trip 

 to Chicago and Benton Harbor, Mich. 



The force of the Alpha Floral Co. is 

 working overtime, owing to the short- 

 age of help, several of the employees 

 being on vacation. Mr. Atkins has gone 

 fishing. This concern is enjoying a 

 husy month; while not so good as last 

 year, still satisfactory. 



Mr. Butler, with Thomas F. Galvin, 

 Boston, stopped on his way to Cali- 

 fornia. He was especially compli- 

 mentary regarding the new Rock store. 



Arnold Ringier, of W. W. Barnard 

 ^0., Chicago, while on his way to Ex- 

 <'elsior Springs, Mo., paid a visit to the 

 trade here. 



Mr. Schreiber, of the Foley Mfg. Co., 

 Chicago, is in the city on business.

The Market. 



These are not business notes. There 

 is so little business that it is not worth 

 mentioning. There are still enough 

 good flowers, roses, carnations, gla- 

 dioli, lilies and valley, with some poorer 

 asters, so that the few orders coming 

 in are taken care of without any 

 trouble. 



We have come through an awfully 

 hot spell, but the weather for several 

 days has been so fine no one cares 

 whether he goes away or not. In fact, 

 the fellow at home has something on 

 the one who is away. 



If checkers were permissible in a 

 business house, now would be a good 

 time to get out the board, as they 

 would help kill time. 



Various Notes. 



There has not been much convention 

 talk here so far, but since the secre- 

 tary of the S. A. F. sent out the 1912 

 buttons I see people wearing them who 

 never were known to wear the old one. 

 If the convention is as much better 

 than former ones as this button is bet- 

 ter than the old one, it should be 

 "some" convention.

Miss Katherine Lager, of the Pitts-

 vacation at Canal Dover, O. 



v. A. Cowgill, Salem, O., was a vis-

George Marshall is camping with a

E. Huston, Sistersville, W. Va., was 

 also a recent visitor. Hoo-Hoo. 



LOUISVILLE, KY. 



Business was rather quiet the last 

 few days. Carnations are poor, with 

 roses little better, with the exception 

 of Beauties, which are fair for this 

 season of the year. John G. Bettman, 

 of New Albany, Ind.> has been sending 

 some fine gladioli to this market and 

 finds a ready sale for them. Sweet 

 peas are about done, only limited quan- 

 tities coming in, and they are poor.
