The Market. 



Unsettled labor conditions hold busi- 

 ness in check to a large extent. The 

 express drivers are now out on strike 

 and have been for ten days, which 

 ^makes it impossible to get shipments 

 promptly. Consignments are received 

 only at owners' risk, and for this rea- 

 son shipments are not consigned to 

 this city. Every one complained of 

 Tpoor business all the week, but Mothers ' 

 day was a winner. Business started 

 May 10. and grew better until Sunday, 

 when everything salable was cleaned 

 out. The wholesale price advanced on 

 carnations from 2 cents to 4 cents, and 

 there were none to be had at that. It 

 is plainly evident that this day will be 

 •one of the largest flower days in the 

 trade outside of the established holi- 

 days. Increased publicity this season 

 helped the sale wonderfully, and every- 

 where Mothers' day was evident. The 

 spring business is now at hand and 

 bids fair to be big. A few warm days 

 brought out many requests for pots 

 ■ of geraniums, and many signs point to 

 a large season. 



Various Notes. 



J. B. "Wiese expects to be in his new 

 store in the market in a few days. The 

 new market will be one of the finest 

 in the country, and Mr. Wiese will have 

 a display room equal to the fine stores 

 ■of the city.

MILWAUKEE, WIS. 



Iptikerg' day for the florists was a 

 success, being ahead of expectations 

 and, in fact, finding some rather un- 

 prepared. The local English press un- 

 doubtedly was the main factor in get- 

 ting the ball rolling. Most of the min- 

 isters embodied Mothers' day in their 

 sermons, while the Milwaukee Christian 

 Temperance Union distributed white 

 carnations to the unfortunates at the 

 county jail. 



From the wholesalers' point of view, 

 the demand for this day was far ahead 

 of last year. In fact, the demand ex- 

 -ceeded the supply. White carnations 

 were a scarce article, while the supply 

 of the other shades was inadequate for 

 the occasion. This, in turn, helped out 

 rail of the other kinds of cut flowers, 

 so that by Saturday night the whole- 

 -ealers were completelv cleaned up.
