SHEEP MANURE 



There Is a reason why Wizard Brand Sheep MManre Is more exten- 

 sively used by Florists than any other:— Beat for Oamations and Ohrys- 

 anthemums— Best for maklngr bench soil— liquid BMinarlnji— and field 

 work. Ask for our Growers' Booklet and know why Wizard Brand leads.

The Market. 



Business during the last week has 

 been exceptionally good, with a great 

 deal of funeral work, besides many 

 orders for debutante parties. The cut 

 flowers are excellent in quality, and a 

 great deal of stock is coming, although 

 it has not gone begging for a buyer. 

 Chrysanthemums are exceptionally good 

 and are bringing good prices. Carna- 

 tions have been scarce, as most of the 

 large growers are off crop. Any of the 

 blooms that reach the market bring 

 good prices and find ready sale. The 

 weather has been unusually warm for 

 this time of the year; in fact, a little 

 too warm for carnations, making them 

 a little soft. Still it is true that busi- 

 ness, on the whole, has been excellent, 

 and it has picked up wonderfully since 

 the garden flowers have gone. There 

 was a good demand for flowers for All 

 Saints' day, the weather being quite 

 favorable. 



Various Notes. 



Mr. Magee, of the Scottwood Green- 

 houses, has had several large decora- 

 tions for debutante parties, which have 

 been held in the beautiful ball room of 

 the Secor hotel. One of the largest 

 parties of the season was given Novem- 

 ber 8, for Miss Backus. In the decora- 

 tions for this affair, Mr. Magee used 

 large quantities of Bonnaffon chrys- 

 anthemums. He reports business good 

 this season, and he has several large 

 weddings booked for this month. His 

 greenhouses are situated in the best 

 residence district of the city and he 

 receives a large percentage of the trade 

 in that locality. 



Mr. Kaminski, of Lagrange street, 

 has some fine chrysanthemums this year, 

 for which he finds ready sale. He re- 

 ports having ten weddings for the first 

 of the week. 



Emil Kuhnke has been sending in 

 some excellent pompons and he also has 

 a nice stock of Boston and Whitmani 

 ferns. 



The marriage of Miss Mary Helmar 

 and Edward Repp took place at the 

 home of the bride, in West Toledo, No- 

 vember 6. The members of the trade 

 extend their congratulations and best 

 wishes. 



Mr. Ziems has the sympathy of the 

 trade in the loss of his wife 's mother, 

 who was burned so terribly that she 

 died from the shock. H. F. P.
