to o;icli l»askct is tlio fifjiirc of ;i court 

 l.'tdy of the s('vi'!itei'iith c.ontury, whose 

 dress, coiflfures, lints, etc., iire faithfully 

 designed to represent that period, yoiiie 

 of the ladies are in street dress; others 

 are dressed for the the;iter; still others 

 are dressed for the home. Kvery detail 

 lias heeii copied in it most surprising 

 manner. Looking; over a larfje nunilter 

 of baskets, it is readily seen that the 

 li<;ure.s are not only difTerontly clad, hut 

 that their ])ositioiis are .iiist as dissimi- 

 lar. The court ladies w<'re designed by 

 a Ijaroness and I'eiin 's has coni|)lete con- 

 trol over theni. Crowds surround tlie 

 window where the ch;irming •■ind uni(pie 

 baskets are on display. Haiulsome, 

 satin-covered, heart-shaped l)oxes, wfth 

 liand-painted ])unelies of violets on tTn> 

 center of the lid, are another offering of 

 this np-to ilate tirm. (Jener;il business 



her(> is f^ood .-ind there were noted hand- 

 some lar};(> vases of liuddleia Jisiatica 

 and other rather uncommon flowers. 



The convent ion of the .Xew Kn<;land 

 Nurserymen's Association has been lield 

 at the American House this week and 

 has .attracted many visitors from (dher 

 jiarts of New Knyland .'ind not a few 

 from outside its bounilaries. 



At the lIou},dit()M ( iorney store, under 

 the Park Street clrur<-li, tlie'laryc and 

 h;uidsome bunches of |iansies of oiii' 

 color are .always a fe.ature at this sea- 

 son. In the center of some ;i trio of 

 roses is placed and ijuite pleasiiifj they 

 look. Beautiful b;iskets of choice hybrid 

 <-attleyas and v.alley .are cliarniinf^iy ar- 

 ranged and nice novelties in annuals .are 

 featured. Business lic^re of late lias been 

 good and Elijah Oorney is delighted at 

 the coming together of growers, retailers 



and wholesalers in the new florists' .al- 

 liance. 



Boston and its .adjacent c.arnation ter- 

 ritory, as iisu.al, captured most of the 

 premiums .at the H.artford convention. 

 A private t;.'i'deiier, Willi.am ('. Kust, 

 of P.rookline, Mass., <lefeated the leading 

 commercial growers for the best twelve 

 assorted blooms. A considerables num- 

 ber caine from a distance to Boston at 

 the close of the comcntion and visited 

 such leading carnat ionists as William 

 Sim, S. ,J. Coddard and VV. T). Howard. 

 J^ater these visitoi's attended the dinner 

 of the Xew Kngland Florists' Alliance, 

 at the City Club, .lanuiiry 28. Among 

 this number were (ieorge Asmua, Chi-
