CINCINNATI. 



The Market. 



Not much can be said regarding 

 business now, as the usual summer 

 dullness prevails, though trade is as 

 good, if not better, than usual for this 

 Reason. We all would do more if good 

 stock could be obtained; but few of 

 our growers make any effort to pro- 

 duce summer blooming stock, with the 

 exception of outdoor white, of which 

 there is always an abundance. 



The Outing. 



The annual outing (Jones' picnic) 

 took place at Coney Island, Thursday, 

 July 20. As usual, there was a large 

 attendance, and everybody had a good 

 time. In the ball game the store boys 

 were badly defeated by the growers. 

 Only six innings were played and the 

 result was a free coinage score of 16 

 to 1 in favor of the greenhouse boys. 

 The five-mile bicycle road race was 

 won by J. T. Crane, time 15 minutes. 

 The bowling contest was the most in- 

 teresting feature of the day. The win- 

 ning team scored 718 points. Liberal 

 prizes were awarded to the winners in 

 the above games. 



Notes. 



The next regular meeting of the so- 

 ciety will be held on Thursday, August 

 10, at the residence and greenhouses 

 of Mr. Wm. Murphy. 



Messrs. George & Allan will erect 

 a new house this fall especially adapt- 

 ed for forcing Harrisii lilies. 



Fred Gear has a special palm sale 

 with a big sign over the window stat-
