" We have had the Garland gutters in Use over twenty years. 

 They are in just as good condition as when they w^ere first put in."

The Market. 



An unusual number of weddings and 

 funerals, coupled with school gradua- 

 tions, cleared a quantity of stock last 

 week. This class of work constituted 

 the greater part of the demand. 



The market is filled with peonies. So 

 many are grown in this neighborhood 

 that the supply is greater than the de- 

 mand. About all outdoor stock is good 

 and includes some fine gaillardias, corn- 

 flowers, larkspurs, sweet williams and 

 Shasta daisies. Pink snapdragons and 

 yellow irises also are good and have a 

 large call. The only stock that seems 

 to be in oversupply is carnations of 

 the poorer grade, which clear only at 

 bargain prices. Good carnations sell 

 at $8 per hundred. 



The demand for roses has dropped 

 and prices are low. Good fancy stock in- 

 cludes Ophelia, Shawyer, Sunburst and 

 Scott Key. Ward is a good seller. There 

 are many Harrisii lilies in the market 

 and the price is low. Outdoor roses are 

 reaching the market in large quantities. 

 Fancy ferns have been scarce, with a 

 small supply of daggers. The market is 

 well supplied with asparagus. Bedding 

 stock still is slow in moving and good 

 plants are offered at low prices. 



Various Notes. 



During one of the many recent elec- 

 trical storms the house of Charles E. 

 Sharpe at Sea Breeze was struck and 

 several boards torn from its sides. Mrs. 

 Sharpe and the children were at supper 

 when the house was struck, but were 

 net injured. 



E. Kendig, of Oswego, and N. A. Hal- 

 laner, of Ontario, N. Y., were visitors 

 at the peony show last week. 



Winfred H. Wilsoi has a new Chand- 

 ler automobile. 



As advertisements for the peony show, 

 all the stores had elaborate displays of 

 those blooms in their windows last 

 week. 



Harry P. Neun is growing some good 

 hydrangeas, for which he finds a ready 

 sale. He reports business as excellent. 



William Dunbar, son of John Dunbar, 

 has gone to Harvard to take a summer 

 course. 



George T, Boucher has the decoration 

 for the boot and shoe show to be held 

 early in July. 



The Eosery Flower Shop has been busy 

 with weddings and decorations during
