DES MOINES, lA. 



This locality has been blessed with 

 an abumlance of rain this season, and 

 while we have not had more than the 

 ground needed, yet with the vast amount 

 that fell north and west of us, it caused 

 our two rivers, the Des Moines and Eac- 

 eoon to overflow their banks, and the 

 amount of damage has been large. 



Julius Leidig's greenhouses are situ- 

 ated in the bottom laud and the levee 

 gave way. The water rushed upon the 

 houses until it was half way up the sash- 

 bars. It came with such force, carrying 

 rubbish and timbers with it, that the side 

 of one house' was crushed in. The other 

 two fared better and the damage to 

 them is not so serious. On his stock the 

 loss will be total, including his field car- 

 nations, and will probably amount to 

 $1,.500 or .$2,000. It is hard to estimate 

 it when one stands and looks at it with 

 water five feet deep all around. Certain 

 it is. he can illy afford to lose it, as he 

 has had a vast amount of sickness in his 

 famih lutely. 



The parks never looked better than 

 now. We noticed a fine bed of pansies 

 at Union Park that is a great attraction, 

 being planted in black, yellow, blue and 

 white in order named, beginning in cen- 

 ter of bed. The Dorothy Perkins roses 

 are in fine effect and are a splendid ac- 

 quisition to the Rambler family. 



Our delegation to the S. A. F. O. H. 

 convention will be small, J. T. D. F. 



Gainesville, Ga. — J. E. Jackson re- 

 ports a most satisfactory trade this sea- 

 son, it showing an increase of one-third 

 over last year. It has been very dry 

 and hot here. The thermometer reached 

 100 degrees recently, the highest ever 

 known here. 



Brooklyn, N. Y. — John DeWolf, the 

 landscape gardener, who formerly held a 

 position in the park department, was 

 taken to Bellevue hospital last week suf- 

 fering from opium poisoning. He was 

 unable to explain how he had taken the 

 opium. 



Ui'ic.v, X, Y. — C. F. Baker has com- 

 pleted the erection of two new houses 

 containing ,5,000 feet of glass. They 

 will be devoted to ferns. Mr. Baker now 

 has seventeen houses with a total area 

 of 25.000 scuiue feet.
