NEW YORK MARKET. 

 Low temperatures and backward 

 weather generally have called a halt 

 on the immense shipments of flowers 

 forced on the wholesale trade by rea- 

 son of the summery weather of the 

 previous week, and while the situation 

 is by no means ideal, yet it is less dis- 

 couraging than it was during last 

 week's almost complete stagnation. No 

 fault can be found, as a rule, with the 

 quality of the product at present. 

 What is wanted is more activity in the 

 retail call and a more pronounced will-

 bloom.

 inging, from two to six weeks after 

 treatment. In a paper read before the 

 local Florists' Association, Mr. Rues- 

 ton guaranteed to kill spiders hy his 

 remedy, and offers to demonstrate to

 This is the second year of trial and 

 from the writer's view point (I have 

 picked dead spiders from carnation 

 bench and seen the bodies magnified 

 13r. times), it certainly appears very 

 successful.

A CURE FOR RED SPIDER. 



Mr. E. Ruestow of Barnard's, N. Y., 

 has alter many years experimenting, 

 found a cure for Red Spider. His ap- 

 plication or remedy is so simple that 

 for a cent or two a whole house may 

 soon be under control, as the v.'riter 

 has seen hundreds of dead spiders on 

 the ground four weeks after applying 

 the remedy. What the composition is, 

 Mr. Ruestow keeps to himself, as he is 

 now trying to interest the government 

 or some society to reimburse him for 

 his trouble and he has nothing to sell, 

 either liquid or solid. The spiders
