PHILADELPHIA. 



The Market. 



The cut flower market is very quirt 

 now. Asters and dahlias are plentiful; 

 there are a good many gladioli; sweet 

 peas can still "be had of fair quality; val- 

 ley is rather poor. Japanese hydrangeas 

 ( Panu-ulata gramlillora) have made 

 their appearance most decidedly, and in 

 a way that is very acceptable to makers 

 of inexpensive designs. Beauties are in- 

 creasing in number; some of them are 

 really fine for August. There is quite a 

 little shipping business to nearby sea- 

 shore resorts. 



The Convention. 



Philadelphia has sent a splendid ex- 

 hibit of plants, supplies, ribbons, etc., to 

 Milwaukee this week. A fair-sized dele- 

 gation left Broad Street Station on Mon- 

 day morning for the convention eity. A 

 few left earlier and a few more followed 

 after the main body. Those who went 

 were President John Burton, Robert 

 Craig, Leo Niessen, John Westcott, Ed- 

 ward Keid and familv, Joseph Heacock, 

 F. J. Michell, Charles D. Ball and wife, 

 Robert Kift, B. Eschner, Paul Berko- 

 witz, D. T. Connor, Julius Wolfe, Jr., 

 Rupert Kienle, William Robertson, Ed- 

 ward Fancourt, Walter Yates, John "P 

 Sibson and wife, Martin Reukauf, Prank 

 Polites. John Kuhn, George ('. Watson, 

 Felix Meyers, William Falk and others. 

 For their success in the hall of debate, 

 in the exhibition and in the spurts you 

 must look in another column. 

 Notes. 



C. A. Dunn returned this week from an 

 extended trip throughout the state. 



Mrs. R. C. Smith, of Seeane, is send- 

 ing in some fine asters to the Flower 

 Market. 



The Steamer Haverford, with S. S. 

 Pennoek on board, was delayed in the 

 Delaware river by running on a sand 

 bank. 



R. G. Palmer is sending in so very 



nice dahlias to the Flower Market. 



One of the growers in the track of 

 the recent hail storm gives it as his 

 opinion that 16x24 glass suffered less 

 than any other size. 



A good story is told of a dog recently 

 imported by Alexander B. Scott, of 



isli 



on that valuation. A friend was si. much 

 pleased with the animal that he asked 

 Mr. Seott to import him a pair like it. 

 A reply came from Ireland that a pair 

 could lint be had for less than $500. The 

 dog in question had been given to Mr. 

 Dixon by a friend, and the valuation $5 

 represented the gratuity given a man to 

 put the dog on the steamer. 



Edward Reid will go from Milwaukee 

 to Ms home in Dakota for a vai-atimi.
