The Market. 



Kuneral work continues heavy. There 

 •lie a good many weddings. Planting out 

 iias been delayed by the heavy rains 

 ^vhich we have had all this month. Last 

 week it rained every day. Outdoor 

 •lowera are plentiful, but show the ef- 

 fects of the rain. Peonies are on the 

 'Market in large quantities, although the 

 'Top will be shorter than usual. 



Various Notes. 



William Halbrooks, superintendent of 

 Oak Hill cemetery, who had a leg am- 

 putated a few weeks ago, is getting 

 along well, despite his advanced age. 



O. S. Smith has become a coal dealer. 

 He and another man leased a mine near 

 Newburgh, which is in operation. At 

 present the output is sold at Newburgh 

 and at the mine, but Mr. Smith plans 

 to ship coal into this city. 



C. L. Niednagel has a few benches ot 



old roses pruned back and growing 

 again. He is filling benches for the 

 planting of young stock of Columbia 

 and Premier. 



The Lockyear Floral Co. has plana 

 about completed for the building of the 

 new houses, which will be begun soon.
