The Market. 



There has been little change in this 

 market since the last report. Business 

 is at a standstill and quotations are 

 about the same. The supply still is 

 greater than the demand. Last week 

 some good roses were to be had from 

 young plants of the varieties. My Mary- 

 land, Killarney, White Killarney and 

 Mrs. Aaron Ward. A large quantity of 

 good asters, all colors, sold at $1, $1.50 

 and $2 per hundred for the best. In 

 this city Friday is used for the weekly 

 half-holiday, instead of Saturday. All 

 the business houses close at noon and by 

 2 p. m. business is over for the day. 

 On this account the florists' shops are 

 following the example and closing Fri- 

 day afternoons. 



Florists' Club Outing. 



The Florists' Club held its outing 

 July 15 at Hershey 's park and the mem- 

 bers were escorted over the grounds by 

 Mr. Haverstick. The attendance was 

 large, as the florists from all the near- 

 by towns were present. Among the 

 visiting florists from other cities were 

 Samuel S. Pennock, of Philadelphia 

 and James Brown, of Coatesville, Pa. 

 The day was perfect and everyone had 

 an enjoyable time. Thanks are due to 

 our club president, A. M. Herr. 



Various Notes. 



Miss Edith Diflfenbaugh, bookkeeper 

 for the Keystone Nurseries, is on her 

 vacation. 



Chas. M. and Elmer J. Weaver, of 

 Ronks, Pa., are getting in shape for the 

 coming season. They have about 15,000 

 carnation plants housed already and 

 125,000 aster plants in the field, from 

 which they are cutting some fine asters 

 of various colors. The above totals are 

 for both ranges. 



H. B. Weaver, of Bird-in-Hand, has 

 30,000 asters planted out, from which 

 he is cutting some excellent flowers. 

 He has also 20,000 strong-looking carna- 

 tions in the field, which he will house 

 in a week or so. :_ 



Boss Zafader, fi|f Soudersburg, Pa., is 

 also cutting a quantity of gopd asters 

 of all colors.
