Showers the early part of last week 

 helped to freshen up things a little. It 

 blighted the peas and asters for a few 

 days, but it probably was a benefit in 

 the long run. Growers are looking for 

 a heavy demand and there probably 

 would be a number of new houses put 

 up were it not for the tremendous ad- 

 vance in the price of all greenhouse ma- 

 terial and the scarcity of fuel. Owing 

 to the trouble in the lumber industry, 

 the supply of "slabs," or lumber culls, 

 from the mill yards is limited. They 

 have been popular fuel for greenhouse 

 boilers until recently. Coal is exor- 

 bitant in price, so the heating problem 

 is an unsolved one.

mens, will leave the early part of the 

 week with his son Joseph for a motor- 

 ing trip east of the mountains. He ex- 

 pects to be away for a couple of weeks. 

 There is nothing new in cut flowers, 

 good gladioli, asters and peas being the 

 main feature. Good marigolds and 

 improved carnations also are plentiful. 

 Business is holding up well for the sum- 

 mer months, and as it usually picks up 

 nicely during the latter part of Septem- 

 ber or the first of October, the trade 

 feels as though it has weathered the 

 dull season well, indeed. B. Q.
