The Market. * *^ 



Trade was quiet last week. The de- 

 mand for cut flowers is gradually fall- 

 ing off and it looks as though the regu- 

 lar summer business had come to stay. 

 There is plenty of stock of all kinds 

 to be had and the prices have dropped 

 about one-half. In fact, it is a case of 

 take what you can get without losing a 

 sale. 



The funeral of a prominent young 

 man in town was held June 25, to which 

 there were sent many handsome floral 

 tributes. Every flower shop here was 

 represented and a number of designs 

 came by express from out-of-town 

 florists. The closing exercises of the 

 city high school, June 26, were the last 

 of the season. For a side-line at this 

 time of year the retailer has a steady 

 demand for reed and colored raffia, as 

 many of the young people spend their 

 idle time at and take a great interest 

 in basket weaving. 



Various Notes. 



W. A. Hammond, of West Orange 

 street, received a good funeral order 

 June 26, over the wire from a New Eng- 

 land state. 



The Rosery flower shop, on .West 

 King street, has the windows neatly 

 decorated with ferns and foliage plants, 

 which make the shop cool and airy 

 looking. 



At H. A. Schroyer's there are some 

 attractive baskets of outdoor flowers 

 which catch the passers-by. 



Barr & Co. have the finest summer 

 window decoration that has ever been 

 shown in the city. It is talke<i abo^t 

 by every one and surely draws the 

 crowds. It is a miniature landscape 

 garden scene with natural water effects 

 and small Japanese gardens elevated in 

 the water, appearing as islands. The 

 plants used are all small ones, such as 

 Japanese maple trees, golden arbor- 

 vitae, boxwoods and variegated Cali- 

 fornia privet for hedges. 



Miss Elizabeth Krouse, one of the 

 salesladies of B. F. Barr & Co., has 

 started for Atlantic City on a vacation. 



Visitors last week were: Mr. Swartz, 

 representing H. Bayersdorfer & Co., 

 Philadelphia, and F. A. C. Vosters, with 

 Harrison 's Nurseries, Berlin, Md.
