THE WHOLESALE GROWERS OF 



Palms, Ferns and Rubber Plants. 



WASHINGTON. 



Business the past week has been 

 very quiet, a small amount of funeral 

 work is about all there has been doing. 



The demand for flowers of all kinds 

 from near-by springs has been good 

 all season. 



On account of the hot and dry 

 weather stock is poor and scarce and 

 there is nothing to fill orders with. 



The thermometer has registered 

 from 98 to 100 degrees for the last 

 week, and with no rain for two 

 months it keeps the boys guessing. 



P. W. Bolgiano will, in a few days, 

 begin to remodel his uptown store and 

 add a new conservatory 50x20 feet. 

 Mr. Mayberry, his manager, says busi- 

 ness has been fairly good with them 

 all summer. 



N. Studer is making preparations to 

 ship a large lot of his new fern, N. 

 Washingtoniensis, of which he has 

 some fine specimens.
