The Market. 



The customary period of summer 

 deadness now rules in the market. There 

 are no stable prices and far more flowers 

 arrive than can be disposed of. Roses, 

 with the arrival of really hot weather, 

 have rapidly declined in quality. Their 

 numbers also are materially reduced. 

 Prices are low; in fact, no reasonable 

 oflfer can be refused under present con- 

 ditions. Carnations still arrive in large 

 numbers and of fine quality, but buyers 

 fight shy of them and even at existing 

 low prices many are wasted. Sweet 

 peas from under glass are about over, 

 but there are liberal shipments of good 

 quality from outdoors, far more than 

 can be sold. Callas are over. Lilies 

 have shortened, but there is little call 

 for them. Peonies are done, but there 

 is a good variety of other hardy, her- 

 baceous flowers. Gypsophila elegans is 

 seen in quantity and sells tolerably 

 well. GypsopMla paniculata also is com- 

 ing in. 



There is a good supply of the large- 

 flowered gladioli, but they sell indiffer- 

 ently. The small gladioli and Spanish 

 irises are over. Sweet sultans, blue 

 cornflowers and Canterbury bells sell 

 moderately and are freely used in win- 

 dow decorations. Cattleyas are in shorter 

 supply. The majority bring $3 to $4 

 per dozen and are mainly C. Gaskelli- 

 ana. There is little call for green stock. 



The Sweet Pea Show. 



The dates of the show, July 8 and 9, 

 proved too early for most growers of 

 sweet peas in the vicinity of Boston, 

 and exhibitors came mostly from Lenox, 

 Pittsfield and Newport. While there 

 were rather fewer exhibits than usual, 

 the quality was unusually high, flowers 

 showing little signs of the protracted 

 spell of rainy weather. The a^aards and 

 winning varieties in the leading classes 

 were as follows: 



Twenty-five sprays, white — S. W. Osrlquist, 

 jrardener to Mrs. Robert Wlnthrop, Lenox. Mass., 

 first, with Constance Hlnton; E6wlu Jenkins, 

 Lenox, Mass., second, with Edna May Improved. 

 . Twenty-five crimson or scarlet — Edwin Jenkins, 

 first, with Sunproof Crimson; S. W. Carlqulst, 

 Beoond. with Scarlet Emperor. 



Twenty-five carmine — S. W. Carlqulst, first, 

 with Rosabplle; Edwin Jenkins, second, with 

 George Herbert. 



Twentv-rtve vellow — E. Edwards, gardener to 

 A. N. Cooley, Pittsfield, Mass., first, with Mrs. 

 Dameron; James Watt, gardener to Mrs. W. G. 

 Weld, second, with Mrs. Dameron. 



Twenty-five blue — S. W. Carlqulst. first, with 

 Blue Monarch; Edwin Jenkins, second, with Blue 

 Monarch.
