INDIANAPOLIS. 



The Market. 



Indianapolis has been in the path of 

 the flood during the last week and 

 there has been no business for the flo- 

 rists. The trade has been exceedingly 

 fortunate, however, as the writer 

 knows of no one who suffered damage 

 from the high water. This was the 

 worst flood in the history of Indian- 

 apolis, as miles of territory were entirely 

 covered with water and about 5,000 

 dwellings were partly submerged. The 

 telephones, steam and electric cars 

 were put out of business. The greatest 

 inconvenience suffered by the florists 

 was caused by the shutting down of 

 the water works. The water supply was 

 off for about four days, which made 

 it diflScult to fee* the boilers and 

 water the plants. Business has been 

 at a standstill. 



Various Not^s. 



Albert Pittet was high and dry on a 

 hill in the neighborhood of the river 

 and the flood district. 



The National Cooperative Show Gar- 

 dens, of Spencer, Ind., is sending a rep- 

 resentative to the Pacific coast to se- 

 lect a location for a branch garden. 



Herman Junge spent about three days 

 at Cumberland last week, with all com- 

 munications cut off on account of the 

 flood. H. L. W. 



Texarkana, Tex. — E. L. Kiley, of 

 Paris, Tex., has opened a branch retail 

 store on East Broad street. 



Mt. Clemens, Mich. — Fred Lewis, of 

 Buffalo, who is taking the baths, an- 

 nounces his purpose to build in this city 

 a large greenhouse for vegetables, in 

 conjunction with which he will conduct 

 a flower and plant store. 



Houston, Tex. — ^In a xecent indus- 

 trial edition of the Chronicle the flo- 

 rists made a specially good showing. 

 E. C. Kerr had an advertisement of 

 over half a page, showing cuts of his 

 place, and so did the Brazos Hotel 

 Greenhouses, Geo. M. Cosh, manager, 

 while H. H. Kuhlmann and the I. M. 

 Johnson Co., landscape architects, were 

 well represented. 



NEW CARNATION 

 BENORA 



Strong rooted cottings 

 ready for immediate delivery 



$6.00 per 100 

 $50.00 per 1000 



This variegated carnation, sent out by Mr. 

 Peter Fisher last season, is the finest varie- 

 gated variety, and one off the very best car- 

 nations off any color, ever sent out. 



It has immediately attained a commanding posi- 

 tion among the very choicest sorts, and will add to 

 Mr. Fisher's already enviable list of introductions. 

 It is indispensable. 



It is a very early and free bloomer, matures 

 quickly, making very perfect flowers of the largest 

 size on long stems; does not split the calyx.

ENCHANTRESS SUPREME 



|HE best Sport of Enchantress up to date, possessing all the vigor and freedom tliat dis- 

 tinguish its parent. Color a light salmon pink — a color that is not only very attractive, 

 but also one that endures full exposure to the sun without bleaching. A good all-round 

 Carnation that retains its color at all seasons. Calyx is longer and narrower than that of the 

 parent variety, and distinct from the latter. Has shown no inclination to be a burster. The 

 weak points of Enchantress seem to have been lost in this Sport, and a trial of four years' 

 duration convinces us of its great value.
