BOSTON. 



No change in Boston, except in the 

 weather. 



The past week has been one of the 

 rockiest. Goods of all kinds got over- 

 plentiful and prices melted away like 

 snowbanks in July. The grower's only 

 hope is that his plants must soon be- 

 come tired and refuse to suii|ily blos- 

 soms in such profusion. 



The veteran retailer and violet- 

 grower, A. P. Calder, has closed his 

 doors and advertises himself as locat- 

 ed at the green houses. Probably he 

 will reopen next autumn during the 

 violet season, during which time be 

 has a remarkably good trade in bis 

 favorite blossom. 



Guess spring is here all right. l!os- 

 ton Common is strewn with dandelion 

 blossoms. Of course, robins have bills, 

 but it seems they do not pay them 

 very promptly; at least their notes 

 are being given the florists very free- 

 ly just now. 



The Hawley street auctions are on in 

 full force and present an unrivalled 

 opportunity to procure the class oi 

 goods handled there. B. T. 



PHILADELPHIA, 



Trade has been very good the past 

 week, as weddings have been quite 

 numerous. Pennock Bros, had some 

 eight or ten large wedding decorations 

 to execute. Flowering plants left over 

 from Easter came into play on the.se 

 occasions.

Mark Aitken, Springfield, Mass., was 

 a visitor this week. R. 



Chatham, N. Y.— R. E. Shuphelt re- 

 ports an excellent Easter business, but 

 not enough carnations, as weather was 

 unfavorable the week preceding. There 

 was a rush of funeral work, as is usual 

 when burdened with holiday business. 



SAGINAW, MICH.— E. A. Grohmann, 

 the florist, was the victim of a very 

 painful accident recently. He and a 

 party of friends were repi^iiing his 

 naphtha launch, when an explosion 

 occurred and he was badly burned. 

 His hair and eyebrows were seared 

 and his face and hands were blistered 

 in a serious manner.
