Spraying face 4 1-2 inches wide; nozzle 6 1-2 inches long, 3-4 inch pipe connection, $ each. E. H. HINT, Established 1878. 76-78 Wabcish Avenue. St. Louis. A GOOD WEEK. Quite a change in tlie maricet and a very welcome one at that. The glut of last weelv is a thing of the past and now a more conservative market is with us. Carnations are now quoted at 114 and 2 cents, and roses, espe- cially the better grades, are scarce. Quite a demand last weelt was caused by the closing exercises of the public schools, the universities and colleges, and this week will wind them up; then the regular summer business will have started. Sweet peas have been in de- mand and prices have had an upward tendency, especially where the quality has been fair. Ferns are selling well, fancies are starting to come in and are eagerly sought after. Asparagus Sprengeri and A. plumosus are selling well. GREENHOTJSE BUILDING. Fred Ude of Kirkwood is putting up four new greenhouses 1(5x100 feet; C. Meyer, one 28x120 feet tor carna- tions; Philip Goebel, one greenhouse 20x100 feet for carnations; Gus Hart- ma nn. one 17x100 feet for violets; Ed- wards, four houses 18x100 feet for violets and carnations; W. M. Meyer, one 18x100 feet for violets, and W. R. Greb is finishing up his greenhouse 18x70 feet. NOTES. The programme to be carried out by the Florists' Club for the annual picnic is fast getting in shape. Henry Oster- tag has been very busy getting copy from, prominent advertisers in all lines of business, and quite a neat little sum will be netted to cover expenses of special prizes to be given for sporting events. C. J. Schlueter, brother of Mrs. Kate Schlueter (the North St. ] lady florist), was married
