The Arnold-Fisher Co., of Woburu, is 

 sending in quantities of high-grade car- 

 nations this season, including Benora, 

 Matchless, Alice and Red Cross, Peter 

 Fisher's new seedling, of which this 

 concern has 10,000 plants. This com- 

 pany also specializes in sweet peas. 



At the store of Wax Bros., Tremont 

 street, all hfinds are kept busy with 

 funeral work, which is of heavy volume. 

 The trouble is to secure sufficient flow- 

 ers for the necessary designs. Christ- 

 mas business here was well ahead of 

 1917. 



Merle W. Farr has a house of August- 

 sown Spencer peas, from which he now 

 is picking nice flowers. He was troubled 

 with bud-dropping during the late warm, 

 damp weather. Another house of peas 

 is only a few inches high. 



In the woodlands of the Boston park 

 department all chestnuts are being cut 

 out, owing to bark disease. White oaks, 

 many of them splendid specimens, are 

 likewise being sacrificed on the assump- 

 tion that, with them out of the way, 

 the gypsy moth will be lessened. Some 

 lieautiful woodland is being spoiled with 

 this idea in mind. It will be found that 

 the gypsy is not at all a fastidious crea- 

 ture and, if white oaks are unavailable, 

 red oaks, scarlet oaks, willows, elms, 

 hemlocks and other trees will suffer the 

 more severely. 



Robert Montgomery, of Natick, had a 

 splendid cut of Russell and Hadley for 

 Christmas. His Ophelias were off crop. 

 He is much enthused with Columbia. 



December, 1918, was a remarkably 

 mild month. December 27 and 28 plow- 

 ing operations were going on, there be- 

 ing no frost in the ground. A year ago 

 December 28 we recorded 16 degrees be- 

 low zero and were cutting ice a foot 

 thick. W. N. C.

The Market. 



The new year opens up well for the 

 local trade. Considering present unset- 

 tled conditions due to the transition 

 from war to peace, business is good. 

 With the return and discharge of the 

 soldiers better business is expected, for 

 young men are good customers of the
