CROMWELL, CONN. 



With the coming of Lent there ha« 

 been a slight falling off in the demand 

 for cut flowers in this section of the 

 countrj', but we do not anticipate a 

 very serious lack of demand. Just at 

 present cattleyas are in their prime and 

 they are moving very well indeed. 



Grafting roses is being rushed and a 

 few weeks will bring it to an end. The 

 mark has reached 80,000 but there still 

 remain 55,000 to be grafted. 



Tlie call for carnation stock has been 

 very heavy this year and all indications 

 point to a good demand for field grown 

 stock. Queen Louise and Estclle have 

 been favorites, which shows the well de- 

 served appreciation of the former and 

 is a tribute to tne color of the latter. 



The Yellow Katon chrysanthcmui>' 

 from the order list, seems to be much 

 sought for and it will be widely grown 

 this coming fall. For size and color it is 

 all that could be desired but the form 

 of the Yellow Eaton, which is an ex- 

 cellent counterpart of Timothy Eaton, is 

 open to improvement. 



Not as many paln.s will be grown the 

 coming year and a large' stock of kentias 

 is being very rapidly sold out, the orders 

 being booked for spring delivery. This is 

 done to make room for Adiantum Farley- 

 ense and other ferns. 



Several from here attended the car- 

 nation exhibition in Brooklyn. 



Among the recent visitors were: E. J. 

 Taylor. Southport, Conn.: R. G. Han- 

 ford, Norwalk, Conn,; F. H. Mitchell, 

 Waterville, Me. : Leonard Vaughan, Chi- 

 cago; Ed. Welch, Hartford, Conn.

 daughter of Joseph E, Bonsall, the flor- 

 ist, was married February 12 to Mr.

 Va,, at the home of her parents in this 

 dty. 



Columbus, O. — Anton Brigel, the 

 florist, died of cancer of the stomach 

 Feb. 25. He was born in Baden in 1S42 

 and came to this city in 1,883. He N 

 survived by a ■widow, three sons and 

 two daughters.
