EVANSVILLE, IND. 



The Market. 



Business has been exceedingly good, 

 but is beginning to slack up somewhat. 

 The weather is hot and dry and little 

 is doing except work for funerals and 

 weddings, of which there have been a 

 good many. Flowers of all kinds 

 show the effects of the hot weather. 



Various Notes. 



The Wm. Blackman Floral Co. has 

 been kept busy all along. George 

 Blackman says business has kept up 

 unusually well this spring. They are 

 cutting a large number of excellent 

 roses and carnations. A good variety 

 of plants is kept in the stor^ at all 

 times. At the greenhouses they are 

 drying off part of the roses and clean- 

 ing out the old carnations. 



Julius Niednagel, with a party of 

 forty others, has left for a trip to 

 Europe. Miss Elsie Niednagel has gone 

 to New York for the summer, visiting 

 relatives. Business is slackening up, 

 but they are busy cleaning out the car- 

 nation houses and doing other neces- 

 sary summer work. Most of the roses 

 are being dried off. 



C. L. Niednagel has his new addi- 

 tion planted to Killarney and several 

 new varieties which will be given a 

 trial. The plants are growing nicely. 

 The rest of the roses are being dried 

 off. 



The Evansville Floral Co. has sold 

 out to Castle & Welch, of this locality, 

 who will carry on the business. 



Miss Nellie Goodge has been quite 

 busy with weddings and funerals. 



Henry Seymour is busy getting the 

 benches repaired in order to replant 

 with carnations. The young plants are 

 in the best of condition. 



Karl Zeidler has planted part of one 

 house to roses and will put in smUax 

 also. 



J. C. Elspermann is in the midst of 

 summer conditions, with plenty of work 

 ahead. 



Louis Fritsch is about ready to re- 

 plant his carnation houses. He expects 

 to plant some roses, too. 



Royston & Fenton are busy with some 

 necessary repair work. E, L. F. 



Maquoketa, la. — Mr. and Mrs. H. L. 

 Hill are the proud parents of Master 

 Dickson Porter Hill, who arrived June 

 12. Mr. Hill was formerly of the Hill 

 Floral Co., Geneseo, 111., but is now con- 

 ducting a first-class store at this place.

TANKAGE 



PRACTICALLY every grower now finds that one of his chief problems is an 

 * adequate supply of first-class Fertilizer— the available quantity of barn- 

 yard manures is inadequate and street and stable manures are poor, impure 

 and of uncertain value, though expensive. Large growers are meeting the 

 need of a safe, sure, well-balanced fertilizer of unlimited supply by using 



FLORISTS' TANKAGE 



(Not a temporary stimulant, but a permanent rejuvenator of the soil) 



is put up in 100-lb. sacks and is especially prepared to meet the many 

 requirements not filled heretofore. We have spent many years perfecting our 

 tankage and can say that it is far above any yet offered. Let us hear from you.
