The excessive heat of the past eight 

 da.vs ended Saturday night. The heat 

 ■was so great it was next to impossible 

 to do inside work; now, the i-efresh- 

 ing showers have so cooled the tem- 

 perature that the .vo!-k of benching 

 carnations is being pushed with vigor 

 so as to head off another hot spell 



Trade is quiet. Funeral work uses 

 up the tew flowers in existence. 



It is noticed that all stick pretty 

 close to Flora Hill as the leading 

 white carnation, with White Cloud 

 second. Flora Hill is beyond question 

 the best summer white on the market 

 today. In pink Mme. Chapman leads 

 with Daybreak second. Few Scotts 

 will be planted this season. Irene has 

 proved to be as good a summer pink, 

 as Flora Hill has a white carnation. 

 In the cultivation of both these varie- 

 ties, it is noticed, they require a little 

 higher temperature in winter than or- 

 dinary, it is this quality that makes 

 them such good summer bloomers. In 

 red. Jubilee and Crane lead. In yellow 

 Gold Xugget, 3lfhoii!jb Chadwick says 

 Eldorado, planted in poor soil, not 

 only produces good flowers, but are 

 as prolific as Portia. 



Any old price prevails according to 

 quality of goods. 



Geo. F. Crabb and Henry Smith will 

 attend the S. A. F., Joining the Chi- 

 cago excursion.

 parks, Is better and attending his cus-

Somewhat erratic scores, but we have discov- 

 ered a " dope " procured from the Seneca Indians 

 of the Niagara reservation that imparts vigor and 

 nerve, so look out after tlie dope is administered.
