The Market. 



There has been a slight increase in 

 trade during the last week, but business, 

 both wholesale and retail, could be 

 much better for the time of year. In- 

 door stock is plentiful, but outdoor 

 stock is suffering greatly for lack of 

 rain. A few days' heavy wind just 

 about dried up the ground and much 

 watering has to be done. Last Sunday's 

 wind storm did quite a bit of damage 

 both to flowers and fruit. Most of the 

 growers are preparing for their fall 

 work and are emptying their green- 

 houses of carnations and allowing them 

 to blossom outdoors. The young plants 

 are almost ready for indoors and have 

 good, strong roots. 



The carnations we receive now are 

 not at all good. Their stems are short 

 and crooked, their blossoms are small 

 and they have the appearance of being 

 faded. Prices, however, are low. 



•Some good asters and gladioli are on 

 the market. Sweet peas are not up to 

 the mark; only a few arrive in first- 

 class condition. Valley is plentiful and 

 good. Harrisii lilies are being shipped 

 in from out of town. Roses of nearly 

 all kinds are good when they arrive, 

 but a.s soon as they are exposed they 

 open up so rapidly that many are quite 

 unsalable. Greens are all plentiful. 

 Funeral work has come more evenly 

 lately, and the up-town florists have 

 been busy. Most of the stores are 

 short-handed on account of the vaca- 

 tion season. 



Farm Bureau Association Meeting. 



A great number of farmers attended 

 the meeting of the Farm Bureau Asso- 

 ciation held at the Chamber of Com- 

 merce July 18. The chief speakers were 

 Calvin H. Huson, commissioner of agri- 

 culture, Bert Dahl, of the Chicago Coun- 

 cil of Grain Exchanges, and L. A. Clin- 

 ton, of the North Atlantic division of 

 the Department of Agriculture at 

 Washington. W. D. Auchter, of South 

 Greece, presided. Before the meeting 

 the members were taken on automobile 

 rides through some of the farming and 

 fruit growing sections and later to an 

 excellent dinner. 



Various Notes.
