 2.5 cents to .$1..50 i)cr 100, Sweet peas 

 have been coming very irregularly of 

 late and for the most pait have been 

 sold very cheaply. For some reason not 

 so much out-door material has come in 

 as might he looked for. but perhaps as 

 much as the market would readily carry, 

 since second-class goods have been un- 

 salable all the time. 



\'acation time is surel}' here, but I do 

 not hear anything said about any ex- 

 tended vacation trips, which seems in 

 sharp contrast with two years ago, 

 when so many went to Europe. 



Neither is there so much talk about 

 building as usual at this time of year, 

 probably largely due to prevailing prices 

 of building material. What little I can 

 find out on that subject I will have to 

 roll up snowball fashion for next issue. 

 But I fear it will make a .small ball. 



"No news is good news,'' and if we 

 travel on that ticket there is lots of 

 good news. "Silence is the only sound 

 I hear." But James Delay has been laid 

 up quite a few days with a poisoned foot 

 which declines to read'ly yield to treat- 

 ment. The cause of the trouble is un- 

 known.

Going Out of 

 Business 



The Hinsdale Rose 

 Co. has decided to 

 go out of the busi- 

 ness of growing ros- 

 es and have for sale 

 the following stock which was 

 grown for their own use. The 

 stock is guaranteed to be in first- 

 class condition in every respect, 

 and will be sold below the cost of production, for the reason that we 

 have no use for it and wish the room for other purposes. Will trade 

 stock for up-to-date carnations — that is the new varieties:
