CINCINNATL 



With the moderating weather stock 

 has become more plentiful, but busi- 

 ness has not shown any material im- 

 provement. The chances are that we 

 will have a surplus of stock before the 

 end of the week. Quotations on roses 

 and carnations have already taken a 

 drop, but they are still bringing a fair 

 price. Greens of every description are 

 scarce and in demand at any price. 



Mrs. C. C. Murphy died Sunday af- 

 ternoon after a long illness. The bur- 

 ial was at Spring Grove cemetery on 

 Wednesday, the 22nd. 



B. P. Critchell, who has been quite 

 sick for the past week, is now able to 

 attend to business. 



Robt. A. Murphy, of Delhi, was mar- 

 ried to Miss Alice Van Blaricum on 

 the 16th inst. B. 



OINCINNATL 0.— Julius Baer was 

 recently the victim of a forged check. 

 The swindler tiresented a check for 

 $15, supposedly drawn by the Wm. 

 Glenny Glass Co., payable to F. Glen- 

 ny. The fellow represented himself 

 to be F. Glenny and ordered $4 worth 

 of flowers delivered at Mr. Glenny's 

 home. It was discovered in making 

 the delivery that the flowers had not 

 been ordered and the check was a forg- 

 ery.

SUCCESSFUL FRUIT GROWING. 



The Superintendent of the Lenox 

 Sprayer Company, of Pittsfield, Mas- 

 sachusetts, has delivered an address 

 before the Lenox Horticultural so- 

 ciety at Lenox, Mass. The address is 

 almost a college education to fruit 

 growers, fruit dealers, and in fact to 

 anybody eating fruit or even having 

 but few fruit trees, or in anyway con- 

 cerned. Had this address been placed 

 on the market in book form it would 

 no doubt have sold at a good price. 

 The full address, profusely illustrated, 

 in pamphlet form, will be sent com- 

 plimentary to any one enclosing ten 

 cents, for postage, to the Lenox Spray- 

 er Company, 7 West St., Pittsfield, 

 Mass. — adv.
